That's a good question Stephen. Do I NEED a catalyst to realise my potential? I may have reached where I am today without the "kick in the pants" my coach provided. I don't know for sure, but I believe that I got here a lot faster with that catalyst. As I mentioned previously, I'm more of a "thinker" than a "doer".

To make a long story short, I'm now working with a game designer I idolized in high school as a lead developer of Fall of Rome. My coach helped me take the steps necessary, and I'm now doing something I only dreamed of doing when I was younger. Without his guidance and support I do not know that I would have taken the steps to make it happen.
