Taking your point to its diametrically opposite extreme, I have repeatedly 
been told that I should stop writing code because there is no way that the 
code I manage to write could possibly compete with what a professional 
programmer could have written. They are, of course, absolutely right. 
Still, I would not trade the fun (and concurrent training) of solving my 
problems in my way with even the most highly optimised, readable and 
absolutely professional pieces of code.

My twopence,
Nicholas
