[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 129464, member: 126"] Re: Balance Pick one... (at a time). I found while I was managing an engineering group "and" still doing design work myself I literally could not do both at the same time, at least not very well. Managing takes a certain mental focus, that is incompatible with simultaneously letting the creative juices flow. It may have been more mechanical than that with my memory banks inadequate to juggle both, all I know is I couldn't. My solution was to mentally shift gears. When I needed to create circuits for a new design, I would close my office door, to discourage interruptions and focus in on just that. I found the managing a little easier since it was mostly responding to my employees questions and not creating things that never were. Maybe carry two hats and change hats when you change modes. I can imagine it being hard to get everybody to relate to you differently depending on which mode you are in. (Sounds a little schizophrenic). Good Luck JR [/QUOTE]
