Yes! "Don't underestimate yourself, don't overestimate others, just accept that you can't master everything anymore." Master what inspires you seems to be working for me right now. A major life lesson for me. Last

This is a really great question as was the 'unfashionable' language thread. My intuition is that those quiet legacy country roads are out there. Slower paced may also be found in modern industries. I would like to be ready to of

Recent related experience: About a month ago a friend asked for help with his arduino project. He was having difficulty figuring out obstacle navigation. Getting the compass to work combined with the math strategy had him puzzled. My sugges

Your blog and twitter feed are very helpful. I was doing part time consulting, mostly web-related, for a number of years. Getting myself focused in this new phase of life has been challenging. You are clearly focused in your online presence

Right in the middle of this with 50 coming up this summer. I stayed at home and home schooled my daughters full time and consulted part time. With a divorce 5 years ago in the rear view mirror, years of being rather non-traditional and pur

For myself, I observe what shows up in my emotions and body. No judgment of myself and those feelings. Just observing. Allowing those physical and emotional states to just be without acting on them is very helpful to being able to be prese

You're welcome, hanniabu. Glad you found it useful. Lately, I've been learning how helpful it is for all of us when we can share our experiences. I sense there's a lot of underutilized or unrecognized talent in the world. Th

I can relate I think. Whether you need a cure or not is probably a question for you and a therapist. Ask about sliding fee scales and other options. My story and maybe something for you to explore. I never held a job longer than 24 months

Personally, I'm very strong on the social networking side. And I love the engineering side, too. Part of the attraction to consulting for me is in meeting and getting to know new people. Especially, C-level. I've always done b

Patio11, thank you for continuing to inspire and help others understand their value. The biggest hurdles are often in the mindset and belief system of the individual. I know that's been the case for me.

I've not been valuing myself. Being good with people and social situations as well as engineering and problem solving is valuable. At least that's what I'm having to remind myself. And I'm starting to believe it! The
