beat burnout syndrome (read all 2 entries…)

I am better 1 month ago

I don’t think I can mark this as “I have done this”... more like I have beat it “for now”.

Become a better programmer

I am not a programmer anymore 16 months ago

It took me a while to realize this, but as I went into managing projects, I hardly ever do any coding anymore.
There is no chance I will get any better. Too bad…I was just getting into AJAX and after years of programming JavaScript people are beginning to recognize it as a “real” language.

I will change this goal to “become a good project manager” or something like that.
