one of my great and numerous mistakes in the past years is to go overboard with the DIY approach to running a business. given my relative short talent, i have overextended myself in so many ways and have fully lived up to the jack of many trades and master of none. luckily it isn’t too late for me to begin retracting myself a bit and learn to really focus on what i am good and and what i really want to do. it only took me about 5 years to figure this out but then again, just being an engineer/technologist was not my cup of tea either. alas, being in IT hell for the past several days have humble again and why i really dislike it. it’s true that no one appreaciates an IT guy and only thinks of them when something is wrong. anyway, making another commitment to myself next year to outsource this role real fast.
