You cannot do everything.

I realize with each thoughts and projects I got myself into that more and more I wish I could do nothing turns into reality. Here are my 4 projects: The gate opening project.   Energy meter   Solar Panel and Solar water heater projects   Home Waste management Project execution plan I do not have anything like this. So fuck all conviction, I am going to execute this along with my other aims. Aims: Build a better and cleaner body Get things with social interaction right Buy a good phone and sell all the waste I have. Now along with this,   I would like to get settled with PCB design or    Embedded Engineering (Programming or hardware) – Prefer the later more… My execution steps and plan I will quit my job and get back the Cheque. Attend all the interviews and weigh my options to get one job. Next my daily routine rights – So I am going to just start just like that. First step get the treadmill inside.

Product Design Goals - SL001

The cost has to be low. It should off it at everyday in the morning 6:15am and On it 6:30pm. Display the status of the following, Power(Red) Gate Light Status(Green) Fault(Orange) Now how to display this : 1. LCD on the unit attached to gate outside the home. 2. LCD on the unit attached to gate inside the home. 3. LED Turn On/Off. Selected : LED Turn On or OFF Redundancy : Has to be redundant from the effect of shading. Selection: RTC based circuit to determine to time to shut down or start up.

This is a post about a gate light on and off timer project I took on myself

I wanted to do this to keep my skills and brain sharp. And no its not that hard a project but compared to my present job this is like a nobel prize wining affair. Haha..Lets move on. I am trying to build a timer that will switch on the gate lights on at night and off in the morning. I am quite sure none of you will have interest in my project. Even then I planning to name project in a grand manner(atleast in my head) to avoid future paper work and version control problems. So coming to naming, SL001 - Simple Control - For Light - Sophistication Level - Cost Level - Version number Sophistication Level 0 - Low 1 - Medium 2 - High Cost Level 0 - Cheap - No lifetime expectancy - Redundancy very low better to be replaced - No accuracy 1 - Medium - No life expectancy - Redundancy Nil  - Expects Accuracy 2 - High - Life expectancy High - High Redundancy - Expects Accuracy Current Design Goal : A properly working product to turn the light on and of on the gate at requir

its been 5 months. I am going to report the progress here and make few modifications.

1.I have to get my priorities in order Still not done. I will have to decide between a silent partner or a just a investor at N H A. 2. I have to get and set my life bit orderly I am going to write it down here cause it is helping me reflect on myself in a timeline. 3.I have to learn PCB I am going to learn PCB design and I want to get a job in power electronics. 4.I have to learn Power Electronics Design Same as above I am trying to learn PCB design and Power Electronics. 5.I have to learn control system by lbits I am not getting into this mess right now. Either I will take help or I will learn as time goes by. 6.I have to watch few TV shows which I wanted to since some time I want to watch TV show such as Last man standing from now on. And inbetween home improvement. 7. Have to find a new TV show to follow. Delete sleepy hollow and other one with that new Zealand actress. 8.Learn few software    a)One note I am not going to use one note instead I a
