My comment is a little tongue in cheek but Here is "How I became a more productive by becoming a worse programmer"

- I stopped worrying about best practices and just do it.

- I hardly refactor my code unless I'm using the same thing for the fifth time. I just copy-paste it instead.

- I never think about optimizing code until I really really need to.

- I write what gets the shit done quickly. I don't care if writing a Class would have been better than a function.

- I love old boring technologies and believe you can still make amazing websites with just PHP and jQuery.

- I don't come up with clever one-liners anymore. I write a 10 line for loop which I could easily replace with a clever one-line code golf.

- Instead of writing my own code, I usually search Stackoverflow first to see if I can do some copy-paste it instead.
