I agree, it is good to focus. One problem some people have is when they burn out. They work too hard. Focus on doing a good job. Focus on getting things done. Focus on what works. I can relate in trying to build something online. I've been working on that for years. I can relate with you on what you are saying on a deep level because I started building websites and things back around 2004 or in some ways before that too.
Yes. Rooted. Be rooted. Deeply. So deeply. Real values. Don't lose yourself in the mist.
