Right on! That's just where I am now as well. I quit my safe secure job on January 4th and I was in a funk for 3 months. I actually have to start a new "safe secure job" (if there is such a thing) in order to fuel my gazillion projects as well (ADD here too) because I'm out of cash.

But...like you...I'm learning to enjoy the process. I KNOW I've found some great information that's going to help me with what I want (and WHY I want it), and I too am not expecting the instant "prize" anymore.

I'm just learning to say yes again to friends who want to go out to eat. Before, I had that little voice in my head that said, "You can't go out. You haven't achieved your goal yet." Dogged tunnel-vision determinism is one thing, but every once in a while, you must ask yourself, "What joys am I missing along the way?"

Great post, Mike! We'll get there and have fun on the journey...both of us!

John
