Solo-ing concurrent complex projects is naturally associated with risks ... perhaps 30% of projects will have negative returns, the next 50% will cover the costs of the first 30%, and remaining 20% provide positive net margins. So it is naturally associated with complaints and a volatile schedule. This sort of lifestyle/career is not compatible with people who :
- don't like project failure, and want to push negatively returning projects to below 30%, and sometimes 0% of their portfolios ( most people I meet are in this category )
- want to see their breakeven point come from less than 80% of the bottom projects of their portfolio ( as above )
- don't want to complain daily
- don't want scheduling volatility
I think people who don't complain exhibit low intelligence - which isn't to say they are unintelligent, they may simply be introverted about their intellectual lives.
Projects types I am working on these days :
- social partners,
- charity cases
- manual skilling
- asset management
- technology R&D
- physical conditioning
- home economics
- business development
