This is absolutely correct. The only way to truly make it is to run your own business.
If you work for some one you only have one boss. If they screw up you get hurt bad. If you have a hundred clients if you lose one of them it hurts but should not damage you that much.
A good stepping stone is to be a consultant a consultant is a business with one and only one employee. The consultant has to work on brand recognition of himself as well as the problem solving skills to solve companies problems. Marketing is networking. Observe and learn how businesses succeed and/or fail. Observe and learn how and why projects succeed and/or fail. Consultants with business and project management skills can demand a lot. Lear the art of politics. To make the top tier of consulting you have to be a master of politics within a company. Once you have mastered all of these components of being a consultant it is time to create your own business. Find or make a product then market and sell that product.
1. Learn all nessisary skills to running a business.
2. Find or make a product.
3. Market, sell and service your product.
4. Take the risk.
5. Work/think your butt off. Running the business is just more of the problem solving skills you learned as a consultant. Note: make this line ??? before publishing to Slashdot
5. Profit
The first and best thing you can do is to stay out of their way.
The second thing to do is to find out what is preventing them from getting their development done and to eliminate or reduce the interference.
Since they are seasoned they will have an understanding for the need of management updates they should be asked for these updates no more than once a week.
The one thing that you should be making decisions on is the business needs of the application. For this you should understand and communicated the business needs.
Show the team that you are interested in the crafting of their solution to the business need.
I would say that the USPS pretends that that is their motto only in such away that they can claim "Look how dedicated we are!!" but deny an implied service level agreement to such standards.
Oh that is just getting so old. In this context however it could become so real.
On to the real subject...
"If droids could think for themselves we would not be here"
The day is coming when most if not all the routine and skilled functions of life will be carried out better by robots than by humans.
The last bastion for the human mind will be pure abstract thinking.
I do not even pretend to know what that new day will bring to the meaning of mankind when computers become better than the human mind at pure abstract thinking.

Have they not learned from the others that have gone on before them. It is not the original error that will get you, but how you cover up your error that does.
I do 4, 5, 6 upto the Luke/Obi-Wan conversation, Flashback to 1, 2, 3 then finish 6.
The Luke/Obi-Wan conversation sets up the last of the history needed for 1, 2 and 3.
All of my former girl friends and my wife are Star Wars fans.
All that is needed to counter act this act of extortion would be to remind the ISP that If customers cannot access content on the web through their ISP consumers will switch or complain indecently to said ISP.
The action would be for all the major content providers to band together and to block out that ISP's address space from receiving any content. The question is can they band together or not.

There is but one Truth: there is no sig
"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds"
But the computers will!!!
You do realize that this has never been the motto or creed of the USPS.
It is taken from the courier service of the Persian Empire. See Wikipedia.
