Turnaround

Already for a year I am contracted to work on a very interesting project. Or at least it seemed so. Once I was approached for it, I was super excited, and eager to start working on it asap. I was even ready to sacrifice time away from family for it. In first month-two I have immediately noticed that some things are not as I would like them to be, but was still full of enthusiasm and thought it is just a phase.

Unfortunately, it was not. These things started to bother me more and more. And those are mostly not big things (apart from one which is quite unbelievable and unforgivable). With or without those things being properly done project will succeed, I just feel success could be even more with them.

And while some people can settle with mediocre, I am not the type. I always strive for best. Mediocre is easy to find. And if it will not be the best, I loose my passion. That is exactly what happened here, and coupled with some private things led to me abandoning project. In a friendly manner for sure, but I am certain it is not the end that I wanted, nor project stakeholders. I wish them all the best, successful deliveries and success. And they will make it, for sure. But I will always feel it could be better then that.

But, life is full of such surprises. New chapter starts from April 9th (very symbolic date for me) and I am very much looking forward to it. 

To start or not to start 2

Well,

this is NOT the second post, there has been plenty of them in between. But, as I consider this post as a fresh start, I have decided to remove all existing posts (apart from first one).

Enjoy!
