Year 2016 in review and goals for 2017

Hello people, It's my 34th birthday today and I wanted to put the past year in review and where I wanted my life to go in the next year. Achievements of this year: Machine learning course by Andrew Ng ( completed ) Calculus I by Robert Ghrist ( completed ) Calculus II by Robert Ghrist ( completed ) Probability and Statistics ( 2 weeks left ) Data science - pandas ( 1 week done )  My first linear regression program Built a neural network from scratch  My first Regex. From scratch. No references. With tests. Algorithms I by Robert Sedgwick ( only audit ) Algorithms II by Robert Sedgwick ( only audit ) Also did the BE subjects for CS, all the stuff I had learned over the years. I am super happy to know that MOOCS help a lot in career advancement . Self-help books that really helped: How to win friends and influence people - Dale Carnegie   A mind for Numbers - Barbara Oakley   Altogether, a pretty good year, where learning is concerned. Thin
