A couple I didn't see was having good mentor(s) & a technical social network. Those two things can make or break any person, successful or not.

Mentors allow you to develop without making basic mistakes & learning hard fought lessons that are not taught. Mentors also help with making informal connections. A technical social network allows you to tap into a diverse group informally when you are in trouble or when you need a sounding board for ideas or thoughts.

Male guilt?

It only has 4 points, which says 3 people here don't know actual women. I think that's encouraging!

Are any of these things really that different for women than for men?
