well said, D_ELF,i can't agree more,
however i have lost my drive and energy since last couple of years, i am not motivated in this competitive market, i call it quit, and i am going to try something else,
i believe, a positive attitude, motivation, curiosity, willingness to learn new things, all those wonderful qualities, you have to have it in yourself, it is very difficult to fake it,
i am not really sorry typing english, i do whatever i like, i am not at work,
