@Arkadi Velitchko Bud -- this is a thoughtful and generous write-up. Thank you for sharing with all. I still concede that our YouTube offer campaign isn't something I could repeat independently. The very FACT of that campaign required your participation and ass-kicking. The results...likely I could repeat them through my own testing and experimentation, using a different approach. Everything else holds, including the fact that I like to turn off the unqualified 🙂 AND the fact that one winning campaign was basically a one-off. In other words, "if my brain could not originate it, I'll be unlikely to repeat it..."

@Linda T "My experience has been that I have to be fully into something and excited by it or I just don’t have the desire to do it." THIS!!! Same thing here. I will quickly reply to current clients -- usually same-day or within hours -- and to friends about my special interests. When someone asks for something, and the subject matter feels like a huge 'block', my brain will aggressively de-prioritize it. I can put it way up on a plan, and even be clear about how I’ll word my reply, then the next day it'll fall off a cliff, not to be remembered unless a conversation triggered it. I had someone in one of my shared business groups ask about a development need that was sort-of outside my lane, and although I knew what to respond a day or two later...it got put off by nearly 2 weeks. To answer your question: - My earliest loves were LEGO, computers, music, and vinyl records (and the equipment to play them on). Those base interests have never left me. - Outside that, they've gone all over the place. At one point, I dove deep into the development software behind 1990s computer games...not really a profitable lane, but one that became sought-after during COVID several years after I abandoned it. - During high school I was way into art and literature. - I'm also a self-taught coder in HTML/CSS with some PHP and JS on the side, and my latest love has been building apps using AI. - When my grandfather died, I had to dive knee-deep into estate law and probate. The government was slow and ineffective at making his death 'official', putting the documents in our hands and verifying his will. My dad and I searched so deep, we found his death was subject to a unique law that allowed us to skip AN ENTIRE YEAR of estate settlement drudgery. This is why I love my motto, "Solving real problems the masses cannot." Autistic folks rock at seeing the world differently. We poke holes in established systems in a way that gets results.
