"I just think people like reading tangible case studies, so I'll oblige."
Peter, for some commenters here, there is the feeling that you have told this very motivational story that is also "lean" on content. I don't disagree, although I do appreciate your story.
I think it would be great if you shared more detail about your experiences, successes, failures, etc. in a way that people in the HN community would find more substantial. Patrick McKenzie (patio11) does a great job of this, and I think HN'ers owe him a great debt for the quality of what he shares. (And many others here do this as well.)
