StormWind and Enterprise Applications
I've reached a point in my life of great changes and as the smart person that I like to think I am, I concluded that it's time for some reconsideration.
Don't get me wrong. I've always had the habit of continuously reevaluate my actions and decisions, but it was mostly on the personal side of my life. Professionally it's no that so.
Not that I'm not aware of the needs of the path I choose as a professional, but precisely because the continuous improvement demanded for someone working on Application Development nowadays, make it's absolutely necessary that every time, every day, every minute you make that minute a moment of improvement on the total knowledge you have. So sometime's I thing that learning is enough as a professional refinement, but I've not agreeing with that lately.
What I mean by reconsideration is more of the career aspect of my professional life.
I always praised myself as a professional who've been through the whole application development lifecycle, and I still think that's true.
I've been a developer from most of my professional life (currently about 13 years), but as any life it was full of up's and down's and sometimes I was leaded to take some paths that I did not intended to.
Not that it's a bad thing, I'd like to learn every thing I can from any experience I have. Good or Bad.
I've been, Coding, design application,writing specification -some technical some non-technical-, testing, working on QA with UAT, managing projects from a political and non-political perspective. I've worked or been in touch of a vast set of technologies that made my think-outside-the-box way of being, feels like natural.
I even had my own startup for some three years, which made me consider things from a whole new point of view almost on daily basis.
But lately I've been questioning myself more and more often:
- Where it'll lead me to?
So I decided that to get this answer I'll take as a first step, and not a quick one, reevaluate my skills.
As a member, and co-founder of the StormWind Project, one of the things that I'm more proud to be part of, I'll start another project, one focused on being an Enterprise Application, witch I'll try Posting every step from it's conception to it's delivery and make a self analysis of my skill's and experiences in the specific area that I'll be working with, and the way I'll feel about it.
Keep tuned.
