Today morning I woke up to a lot of memories of my last 2 years. Little bit over 2 years ago I've walk out of the office without even finishing my current contract. Up until that moment I considered myself very successful - over 12 years I worked contracts with big corps - ibm, oracle, pretty much every bank, government, insurance, telecom, etc. I was wanted this so much, at the beginning I loved it, I literally couldn't wait for Monday to come back. Once you get into - it's relatively easy to move from contract to contract. Good money, happy life. But one day I realized that I hate more and more going everyday to the office, being on endless meetings, working on projects I don't care about. I think it was a midlife crisis.

. I realized that it doesn't give anything anymore; I just trading my time and in the next 25 years I doomed to hate what I do.
There is a good proverb - when horse is dead it's time to get off. 2 years after that moment I was working day and night, learning how internet works (funny to say after building web apps for 12 years), I tried so many things, had several flopped projects... All that time I pretty much was spending money I made before I left.
