Actually, best bet is to experiment with a lot of languages.
Programmers are typically only really good with a couple of languages,
but can quickly pick up the basics of any.

Everyone should learn C
Everyone should learn an assembly language so you understand what
actually happens against bare metal
Pick one... Perl, JavaScript, Python, Ruby...
Pick one of Objective-C, C++, and/or some enhanced Pascal
Pick one of Java, C#
XSLT
Scheme
Forth

Not saying it's wise to use all of these on every corporate project
that comes along, but you'll be a better programmer for having a
breadth of knowledge of programming languages
