I am a Technology Tamer located in San Diego (but working virtually anywhere). I help individuals and small businesses take their ideas and talents to new heights using simple, easy to manage technology. Whether it's using the internet to find new customers with a web site, optimizing or replacing existing hardware, or finding technology that helps you be more productive away from office, Josh Can Help.

This makes me feel better

New Study Debunks Myth That Most Tech Entrepreneurs Are College Kids
The research, sponsored by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, studied U.S. engineering and technology companies founded between 1995 and 2005. It found that the median and average age at which U.S.-born entrepreneurs founded their technology and engineering companies was 39. There were twice as many entrepreneurs older than fifty than those who were younger than twenty-five, and 1 percent of U.S.-born founders of tech companies were teenagers.

I have a habit of thinking of myself as “behind” in many ways. Step one is mitigating this feeling a bit through actual information rather than perception.

Step two, and the most important, is being rid of the idea of “behind” or “ahead” out of my brain.
