well HACKERS are human beings after all

okay so when the word HACKER comes to your mind ..the thoughts tyhat flash are like ...some geeks...involved in malicious acts...stealing data from someones system.... breaking down someones system....causing damage...and stuff like that...
There's nothing of that sort....... a perfect definition of a hacker goes like this..
Hackers solve problems and build things, and they believe in freedom and voluntary mutual help. .

To follow the path:
look to the master,
follow the master,
walk with the master,
see through the master,
become the Master..

notice... last master has a CAPS "M" ..coz thats wt matters the most.

Being a hacker is a lot of fun... coz once you have done with your basics and you have set your goals..you are on...but it requires lot of hard work...hmmm perseverance..as does any other jobs in this world..rome was not built in a day..same way it takes years to gain the knowledge through various mediums... internet..books.. practicals...small dummy tests that u perform ... gradually you ascend the ladder of success...you help the community by finding flaws in the system..(here the system doesnt mean a computer system... it means the entire web community!)
Wt i believe is there is no such thing called ethical hacker... all hackers are ethical...thats wt i feel..
The world is full of interesting things...theres so much to learn...so much to gain..so in the end the entire thing is upon you... you have to believe in your self.....your learning capabilites...you application of knowledge is all that matters..
Hackers (and creative people in general) should never be bored or have to drudge at stupid repetitive work, because when this happens it means they aren't doing what only they can do — solve new problems. This wastefulness hurts everybody. Therefore boredom and drudgery are not just unpleasant but actually evil.
Ir does happen sometimes.. that a guy keeps on doing things repetedly..coz gaining a skill isnt easy..but to an onlooker all this seems irrelevant...things that lead to dead end..
Hackers dont like to be dominated... the are free thinkers... all the fascinating things that they imagine is actually possible..and if they are being ordered to work in some pre defined fashion... then it will end up affecting their skills...in a negative fashion.

few things not to do for an aspiring hacker
· Don't use a silly, grandiose user ID or screen name.
· Don't get in flame wars on Usenet (or anywhere else).
· Don't call yourself a ‘cyberpunk’, and don't waste your time on anybody who does.Don't post or email writing that's full of spelling errors and bad grammar.

it really does matter... professionally nobody likes material full of mistakes...
