<i>I would like some advice on how I can be a really great programmer.</i><p>Start asking questions to those better than you and listen. Always listen. Write code. Clone repos and learn how something someone else wrote works. Above all, never stop learning. Stay hungry. Programming is not the destination, but the vessel to what you want to accomplish. Also, listen to your parents, take care of your eyesight, and above all, don't listen to those who call you names because you spend a lot of time in the computer. :)<p>Good luck.
