Getting the Wobbles?
Interesting quote from Steve Jobs (Apple Computer CEO), for those seeking inspiration or having doubts as to whether the big move to Oz is too big a move
"For the past 33 years I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself 'if today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?'. And whenever the answer has been NO for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. Remembering mortality is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose"
I'm not suggesting that philosphical mantras will make the migration process any easier, but the above statement may strike a chord.
Cheers
