Time to grow up...

So I've reached the end of the first third of my career, man/woman upstairs willing.  It’s been a fly by the seat of my pants type of experience.  While I'll freely admit I consider myself rather successful, I also consider myself EXTREMELY lucky to have had many/most of those successes.  I've made a decision recently based on what I'd consider a blessing in disguise - being laid off.  That decision is to dedicate the next third of my career to not being lucky, but rather, being prepared.  The first step in that process is to begin the documentation process of everything I learn henceforth.  The second step is each day I will tackle a new job related subject/idea/web posting and will post about it.  I realize, there is 98 percent I do not know, perhaps 2 that I do.  This is an exercise in taking back control of that disproportionate number.  Learn on.  Learn on.
