Work and intensive work

To get the business successful and wildly successful, one person or a group of persons need to focus their complete energy on the business related issues. In our case who is doing it? By default it has to be me? But am I doing it?

Honestly no. I decided to give up reading all the time and give time to the brain to think and analyse issues concerning the business. That is gone with the wind now.

I decided to concentrate on development work. But nothing substantial, revolutionary coming out of it. There are dozens of major issues and hundreds of minor known issues to be addressed with our current code. With that in hand I should not be sleeping for the next 2 months. I should be wasting my mental energy in news papers, slashdot or magazines for the next 2 months. I need to be on the button 24x7.

Am I going to do it? On this hinges the whole success of the project. This is a make or break situation (let us avoid more cliches). 15 people have bet their time and career on this project and I should do justice to them.

Whatever rhetoric and bluster I dish out to co-workers and outsiders, if I could work on atleast a part of it, things will change dramatically.
