PHP Here I Come

Feeling sorry for yourself accomplishes nothing. Unfortunately, I often feel that way when building websites and thinking of great ideas because I can’t implement them. What a crock of shit…

I’ve wasted so much time poking around the internet looking for free and paid tools that do what I want. Spent countless hours asking other people what they think about my idea, how I could get it done and what it would cost. I’ve had enough of it… I finally dug into reading some PHP tutorials.

All I’ve really done so far is go through all the tutorials on tizag which is an awesome resource. Tomorrow I will be writing myself an “action plan”. I waste too much time… spend too much time on forums… spend too much time asking questions… spend too much time that needs to be replaced with nitty gritty work.

I think it will take me at least until January 2008 before I can do anything very useful with PHP by myself. And by that I mean thinking of an idea and custom coding it myself. Anyways I don’t want to make this post too long… you’ll see my goals in my action plan!

But the bottom line is if you don’t know PHP I suggest you do what I’m doing: stop complaining, stop feeling sorry for yourself and do something smart - invest your time in learning PHP. I think it will be well worth the time.
