Professional programming is not simply an activity, a method for building great code. Much more than that, it is a mindset, a way of thinking and acting that has as its focus the satisfaction and productivity of the user of the software. This mindset is much like a deep-seated compass, directing you through the sea of programming choices. As you read through this section of the book, do not think primarily about the changes you may choose to make to your coding style. Rather, think about the attitude that surrounds great programmers.
