I would agree there are plenty that don't want to work to get better. The same problem applies to doctors, but they manage to attract people willing to work. Shouldn't we?
Doctors are glorified. Mothers still tell their daughters 'Marry a Doctor'. Yes, sad but true. Computer programmers are the adult nerds everyone through high school watched get socially abused. That may or may not be changing, but with that stigma permanently attached to the positions in everyone's heads simply by childhood osmosis... That's a damned steep hill.
Never stop learning, even if it hurts. Ego bruises are practically mandatory as you learn unless you've never risked enough to make a mistake.
