Great examination of the mind of the true swiss-army knife entrepreneur. Seems like you should be putting together some kind of "self-help" book for exuberant entrepreneurial minds.

That's what (who) it is all about. Pick one or two great ventures to focus on - and turn that into ADD parenting, not ADD working. Who ever left this world wishing they had spent more time developing (another) business? Clearly from your writing you have a big heart and are a caring parent. Enjoy it.

Parts of this article sound exactly like they could have been wrote by me. I'm constantly thinking of new ideas... mainly web startups. I currently maintain three sites with two more on the way hopefully very soon. It's going to get to a point where I'll have to sit down and decide what the most important ones are and continue ahead with those and possibly phase out the others. It's already difficult to consistently update three sites, let alone adding two more. The good thing is that one of the new ones should run itself, I'll just need to pump the right traffic to it. I think you should definitely become a blog network dude and continue down that path. That's the path I'm headed and I love doing that kind of stuff. Yes!

Not as simple as having an idea and selling it -- you might need to stay involved, but at a higher level. Something like the chairman's role to someone else's CEO/COO role, maybe, or a limited partner role to someone else's managing partner role. In the narrow realm of blogging and related ventures, you'd be something like editor-in-chief, not staff writer.
