not enough hours in a day.... - GoFuckYourself.com

and time keeps flying by....

too much to learn, not enough time to master the things we want to master

get sidetracked too easily on quests for knowledge when it would probably be more profitable to just let some things go and pay a little to outsource

and sometimes it feels like a mad race because everything is subject to change and opportunities can be fleeting

yes... we are always chasing the ever changing and ephemeral opportunities which only show themselves after we have acquired a bit of knowledge....I understand where you are coming from ... vexing problem indeed....

I wonder if the success stories you hear of like the guy that invented paypal or the guys that did myspace or facebook or any of the one or two man projects that made a billion....

did those guys get bogged down in a quest to know everything about everything or did they just get a razor sharp focus on doing one thing well and just did it,

or was it just a matter of "hitting the lottery-blind luck-in the right place at the right time" kind of thing (of course the last part is a given, but I am curious about how the mega success stories actually managed their time and efforts in the crucial beginnings of their quests?)
