My amazing spouse thinks that this is the vector in my life where I need to stop pairing myself up with Mega-Corporations and truly embrace what I love. Our largest roadblock to that has finally lifted. A full-time corporation with more than 50 employees would be required to provide medical insurance to my otherwise &#8216;difficulty-to-insure&#8217; spouse.\u00a0Assuming I can get logged into healthcare.gov that is no longer an issue.<\/p>\n<p>Of course there is the 0 income question initially.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully,with good planning, some federal aid, and the ilk; I can keep it together until I have enough to get more funding for what I have. Which is the main crux.<\/p>\n<p>What do I have?<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, a lot of combined talents and neurosis combined with many good ideas and deeper insight that is a huge terrifying ball of risk! Such fun!!!! I have a tonne of software projects that were either explorations into learning a software concept, or a simple idea with little growth potential. I have a lot of fragments that look like they should be assemble-able into something very impressive. And the spark of some ideas that seem like &#8220;game-changers&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>To the average person&#8230; A lot of well meaning ideas, no substance, and too many dreams. Not a long range investable.<\/p>\n<p>BUT! I see all these things. In the past few years, I&#8217;ve learned why these components don&#8217;t fit together, how they could fit together, and most importantly the tools to organize them, use them, and most importantly organize me and others.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s to take each thing at a time. Know what it is, what it isn&#8217;t where it fits and here it doesn&#8217;t. See it for its benefits and its distractions. To take time and investment very seriously.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is solid. The slate is clean. The net has been pulled. I have to leap.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-3840\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2013\/11\/10\/bit-by-bit-putting-it-together\/?share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-3840\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2013\/11\/10\/bit-by-bit-putting-it-together\/?share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-3840\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2013\/11\/10\/bit-by-bit-putting-it-together\/?share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2013\/11\/10\/bit-by-bit-putting-it-together\/?share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To believe that I wasn&#8217;t going to experience any emotional gullies would be absolutely fool-hearty. \u00a0I know I&#8217;m going to have moments of absolutely doubt over the next period of \u00a0my life.
