    Why worry about sustainability ?! If someone wants to do good for the community by offering their skills, let them. "Sustainable model" - Sounds like throwing words around. I'm going ahead and blaming global warming for this post ;)

    Seems the question remained on my mind for a while. I think the problem is "Convincing" the mind. You don't have to, I don't. I just "say" : "We have 10 mins. and then we have more interesting things to achieve, lets get this over with". Do

    Try this - Instead of calling it deadline, tell yourself that you'll give the task x mins. and you'll see how much you've work completed in that time. That makes the mind conscious of the ticking clock and focuses you on the job at hand. Ho

    "I would rather have an 8 month contract job during which I work 60 hours a week, and then I have 4 months to work on my own projects." That sounds interesting, is this kind of schedule widely prevalent among contractors ? Maybe I've been w

    That's interesting. I agree building network is just as important as learning. I think it depends on the stage you are at. These are more for bootstrapping and getting started, which has a lot of inertia with it.

    What do you mean by "cross borders" ? I travel oversees and no one has booted my laptop ever to see what's inside. Maybe I've never traveled to those countries.
