Not that it's all that hard - it's just all things that are somewhat out of my control and I have no idea how to do them. For instance, getting machines set up in New York and London. Now, at my old job, I knew all the ins-n-outs of doing this and could get it done with a <em>very<\/em> predictable timeline. Here? I've no idea how the process works. I know what Liza would say - <em>give it time, it's all part of the learning process<\/em>.

I didn't have a lot more new to show for it, but I know the infrastructure in the web app had to be built and there was a significant amount of work there.<\/p>\n<p>I know it's all just self-doubt. I need to put in the time and keep focused on the day-to-day and let the months take care of themselves.
