Not really much of a hint. But then the reaction to my financial notice
about a week ago was actually the real birthday surprise. And the real
reason I dropped the documentation issue that I got deadlocked on. I
need to focus on giving people their money worth in code rather than in
forcing myself. I have to keep reminding myself that I am not doing
anybody a favor by trying to do things I don't enjoy.
Of course, forcing myself to stay focused on things I enjoy doing
instead of those I feel I should be doing does not exactly sound hard.
But at least today I have an excuse even better than "I'd suck at
anything else".
