Do what you like ? Like what you do ?

There are people around me falling in both these categories and either one is right / wrong in his/ her place. I don't stand my own opinion here, but I take it in a slightly different way which might just be the right thing to do for me.

Now, Do I really love my job ? Do I really Like what I do or other wise ? There is actually a third possibility that comes into play here and that is - whether I am really good at what I am doing ? And that's really what matters here. There is quite a possibility that you are not good at what you really like. For instance I really like fast bowling.. Doesn't mean I will end up a better pacer than a programmer ? By the way the later is what I am right now.. one of the millions of happy coders!

Point being, I know people who will say.. oh you know what ? I love teaching! or I love sky diving.. Come on! Is that it ? I mean is that all that matters ? There could be people who are content and happy with what they have got. But I don't that really works in the real world/

Like everyone believes - Success is about falling in the right place at the right time! - now that's almost like a universal truth.

Agreed - If your career overlaps with your likes, you do a great job. But then only if your liking overlaps with something that you are good at. If it doesn't you got to give shots at things you could do better than what you are doing instead of just ignoring the fact and accepting the fact that you are so LUCKY! you are doing what you like..

Where's the money ?

I don't remember the day, we dint discuss about making money, some way or the other.. this way or that, no business idea left untouched. Some of the key ones were Real Estate, Cool Hotel, Cafe, Software that will make money, Politics ;) Agriculture... and a few other fundu ideas.. But not one could really grab our attention when it came to actually investing money. Where's the money ?

I am not an economist and I am not sure when the recession is going to hit, all I care about is my plans.. My Investment and Money making plans!

Getting my second web site up

Well, it has been on my mind for a long time to get started with a web site that either does web marketing or help companies with their Market Research program, obviously using already successful tools in the market.

Yes, I did think a lot about it as to how can this work ? Like my real estate dreams.. as in how exactly can we get started ? and then there is the second question - Does it really make sense ? or even if it does to me will it really make sense to others .. and its this question that matters most, and seldom the answer is Y..

I know I don't have the resources that would be required to start a online tool, not even the easiest one. So the best thing that I could think of at this moment is starting a consultancy web site that will manage web sites, the thing that I am best at. I can actually put my code for display there.

At some point I had to start, So the domain that I registered from the market research analyst point of view www.authenticfeed.com is my web site now.

Please visit : AuthenticFeed

I have set this up in both java and Php so that I can deligate shit to beginners ( PHP ) and keep my website up to date.
Any suggestions in terms of look and feel / content are welcome.
