John, it was a pleasure to meet at BTC++, glad you could make it out.
If you could attribute your success to a principle, or a few principles, what would they be?

Hey -- was nice finally meeting you (and lots of other people!) in person at btc++.
I think one important thing that helped me succeed was to always try to align my work with my interests. When you are naturally curious and interested in what you are working on it makes the difficult times much easier to persevere through.

I could not agree more. Perseverance was a principle I was recently meditating on, so it's interesting that it was your response.
When people have asked me how to get involved, since the very beginning of my entry into the Bitcoin space, this has been my thought:
Make two lists. 1 of things you like doing, and 1 of things you're good at. If you like doing it, you should be able to do it for a long time, and if you're good at it and do it for a long time, you'll likely find a way to make money doing it eventually.
