The nail that sticks out gets hammered back down. If you take a creative risk, and it turns out you were wrong, you'll be punished for it. If you use a conventional approach, and it turns out you were wrong it's not your fault, you were just doing things the way they've always been done.

- pdimitar 10y agoMakes me wonder the same thing for years now and I believe it's about damn time I finally get to it. Even if it takes another batch of several years down the line, it's definitely gonna be a time better spent -- as opposed to always trying to educate colleagues and bosses on the added business value of giving people space and time to be creative. I am at a point where I finally concluded I am wasting my time, that people by default have zero interest in evolving their views -- or simply see things through your eyes, even for a minute. And I see no real profit for me being able to do that for them. So yeah, being your own boss looks to be the best course, with all the hardships, uncertainty and gray hair that comes with it.
