Programming in the zone

Man, when I do lego and programming...it is like I leave this world. I go into my computer. I go into a place which is insulated from the world around me. It is nice. If people leave me alone. But it is nice to hang out with people. But right now I have overcommitted myself. The problem is that if you don't overcommit, things dry up pretty fast and then there are three weeks when you have nothing. I like to be a little overcommitted to keep the stress up and no work dry up....especially in this market. Although...who am I kidding..I would have a job in 5 seconds.

How do I go from being nonunemployable to a millionaire. I have talent and hard work. I don't have courage. I have courage. I am just not using it. I am coasting.
