For the first time in... oh, ever... I think I finally have a place where I can really get some good work done.

So given a canvas and provided the opportunity to fill it in, I must circumscribe myself. I have to take baby steps. I have to make sure each step is done well and provides a good foundation before I start reaching. I have to be patient. I have to be humble. I have to be willing to backtrack and see where I've missed a bit. And most importantly, I have to make sure that what I am doing serves the greater good of the team -- if I think it rocks but everyone hates it, it's de facto no good.

I've bought a bunch of books. I'm not reading them because they may give me ideas I don't want in my head. I don't want blue sky right now. I want horizon.
