Comments so far seem to be focusing on the social media aspect of this piece, what struck me was the acknowledgement that he has a limited number of productive years left, and the Longfellow quote.  In my mid 40&#x27;s, I also have come to feel the weight of years passed, without achieving professional goals (ie starting a succesful software based company).<p>This feeling of unfinished business really set in after the birth of our second child. I had always claimed to be one of the best developers around, yet, I could not master myself to be truly productive when working of personal projects. Overcoming my self imposed limits is where I&#x27;m at now.  Has anyone else experienced this?
