In the future, you make your own or else somebody makes it for you. That’s my philosophy for things in life that you have control of.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, there are a lot of things that not in your control. It was General Eisenhower who said something about plans are useless, but planning is everything. \u00a0I seem to write better prose when I have emotions running through my system. Maybe I have a tiny bit of Toni Morrison about me. She, of course, is an award-winning Nobel Laurette, driven by frustration, anger in her life, her intense and incredible observation of human behaviour and a keen eye on the body and soul. Morrison exercises supreme control of that anger, \u00a0she is precise, contrite, romantic and a vision of the moral tale. I am just a technical author and yet I find and respect other great writings with fictional prose with deep hidden meaning<\/em>. \u00a0I really loved Nile Rodger’s fantastic autobiography. (The book’s photograph inspired my blog site:) I also need that feeling of belonging and cause. Therefore, planning to write is useless for me. I just write when I feel. I write and involved my contracting and work experience. I found my style in my second book. I learnt enough about my delicate psyche to know that I need that thing called core passion, the belief in the technology, subject matter in order to write brilliantly about it.<\/p>\n This day I announce that I will not write any more long form books. This Digital Java EE 7 book is my last book. This may be disappointing for some, or even surprising to many kind readers. I care about the new experienced engineers attempting to the build a career in Java community, much like I did nearly 17 years ago. However, this time, I am let down by plans that never came to fruition, not once, but twice. You know what some might say about. Once is accident, Twice is clearly deliberate, and third … \u00a0no it is not for me. I will never allow myself get tricked or fooled in this effort ever again. Sorry about that at JavaOne and all my followers and my readers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yours<\/p>\n Peter Pilgrim<\/p>\n <\/p>\n +PP+<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the future, you make your own or else somebody makes it for you.
