Hindsight is 20/20

 Perhaps the hardest part of getting things going is keeping oneself disciplined. Having an assistant would be nice. Maybe with A.I. on the horizon, artificial assistants will help. Dunno. Hard to say. I keep thinking about the movies, Terminator, iRobot, and even Steven Spielberg's film, A.I. But really, it is true: keeping oneself motivated every single day as you climb towards success is all about getting out of your own way. 

I recently signed up to blogspot to start this blog. I figured I am seeing so many success stories online I might as well write about my journey. Maybe it will be useful to some else. Maybe not. But it does prove to be a way to really get my thoughts down on "paper" and that is something. 

They say hindsight is 20 / 20, which is pretty true. Looking back things make more sense. Life seems to connect and the underlying logic of why things happened a certain way makes sense. I am here now writing this because a long chain reaction of events called my life led me to the conclusion that starting a company was the most logical thing for me to do. 

So in many ways I am grateful for all the events that led me here. 

I am grateful for the many sources of inspiration -- both painful and pleasant that have led me here to doing this. Because now I am the captain of my own destiny and I can do what I need to do to really help out the family. 

Even so when you have a vision, you need to be able to hold onto it while looking forward. You do not have to share it with other people -- at least not initially -- because sometimes when you talk too much about your idea, all energy you need to get started gets lost.
