Yeah, I'm definitely unable to rush getting back into the swing of things because I have to focus on the kids. I've actually always wanted to own my own business and since security was my major and where I worked years ago, I guess that's where I feel a good goal is. I have a learning curriculum I would like to complete. Ultimately it leads to my original goal of security (pentesting) Right now I have 2 app projects I'd like to start. Or see in the future. So, long story short I'd like to have my own business or work on my own terms in anything IT security. I'm so~~~~ done interviewing for companies. I never want to interview ever again. Lol.
Hi, I'm Gregory Brown.
My goal is to help software developers get better at what they do, whether they've been at it for five weeks or fifty years.

A big part of why I run my own business is to have the flexibility to decide how I want to balance things between work, personal interests, family responsibilities, etc and so I am a huge proponent of that approach for anyone who can do it!
Take tiny steps each week, and little by little you will get closer to your goals.
What works for me given that I am still pretty much on a part time schedule is to think on long time scales and compare where I am now to a couple years ago at any point in time, and that makes it easier to get through the days and weeks where all the rest of life seem to get in the way of anything work related.
Good luck, and happy business building!
