Just a quick note to say hello to all the Die Guys out there!
All evidence to the contrary, I have started writing again. I teamed up with my pal Lou Kren to collaborate on an article for one of his ventures. I am my toughest critic – but I am very pleased with my work with Lou.
I also have no less than 5 book concepts in the works. At the rate I am going, it will take a couple years to get it all out there – but am close to getting the first one going. It will most likely be an engineering calculations-focused book.
I feel good overall – and I genuinely believe I am doing my best work ever.
That said, did you know that Vince Lombardi prepared his entire career to be a head coach? And no less than 20 years into his journey, he finally got the opportunity with the Green Bay Packers and helped put the NFL on the map. [my prediction is they will be in this year's Superbowl and walk away with the Lombardi trophy]
We are approaching the 25 year mark on my career. Does my dream job of building a championship-caliber die engineering and build team with owning the quoting method and die standards lurk on the horizon?
If I had THAT opportunity, the possibilities are boundless. I foresee a reversal of work going overseas back to my hometown with the right die engineering and build processes with my brand of modern die standards to guide the efforts.
I do not know if 2011 is my year or not, but I know this: I am having fun right now.
