Very cliche, but true.<\/p>\n<p>Being a life-long learner, I can tell you that you will never stop learning and the more challenging goals or projects are more rewarding. That said, I will tell you that my motto has always been &#8220;what I don&#8217;t know today, I will learn tomorrow.&#8221; In this case, it was many tomorrows. I am excited to have this done and even though there are a couple of bugs, how many schools have their own app?<\/p>\n<p>You can learn almost anything you want on the internet these days, but you have to be self-directed and self-motivated.<\/p>\n<p>Time, of course, is always a limiting factor, there is never enough time.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you use technology effectively and efficiently to help you manage your time, you&#8217;d be surprised how much you more you can accomplish. That said, just because you can &#8211; doesn&#8217;t mean you should. Brain breaks are health for you. I am going to take a brain break for a while before I begin development on version 2.0.<\/p>\n<p>Sorry, no plans for an Android or Blackberry version. But don&#8217;t let that stop you from taking the challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Any takers?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Remember I talked about doing this, well it is done.
