Agreed. Just like anything - sports, music, etc (yee hee - I'm comparing myself to athletes and rock stars) - the difference between mediocrity and success is whether or not you live/sleep your craft.

Man that would take a lot of energy. No actually after I finish this layout I am working on I have to pack for an extended National Guard Drill this weekend. One weekend a month I get to pretend I am still the same young infantryman I used to be. Also on the weekend you will notice that I post much less, my wife and son do get me sometimes :) I will say this though, this is a tough industry, especially if your are starting out (I am only going into my second year as a CF developer, 6 doing static web pages). If you are ambitious, and want to stay ahead of the next guy, it is a lot of work. I mean I am still taking courses, reading, trying new things. Plus I volunteer for anything, just to get the name/brand/company recognition. Add into that a 2 year old, and another, the military, and a few other hobbies, and you will see why I at least am up until 3 AM almost every night. hehe It does however take it's toll on you, so once a month or so I sleep for a day and then don't even look at a computer for the rest of the weekend (well except for the occasional e mail check, never know when an emergency will strike).
