One of the things that drives me forward is in helping others realise what they should be doing. If they still choose to not do that afterwards then at least they do so in full (hopefully) knowledge of consequences.

I know I never used to, but as a matter of course I do this whenever changes are implemented. It's also factored into the time required to complete a change / install / etc. One thing I didn't list that I fall foul to and that is not closing off for security flaws by not installing updates.

Like when my network was down last week, I jumped onto a neighbor's unencyrpted wireless to check my email. I don't know what neighbor, because the SSID is LinkSys####... And I think this type of thing goes on everywhere. - Chris ( @webovator ) Everything on the list may be very necessary, but I think most people are lazy and too busy doing other 'important' things to create drawings of their network, monitor their performance, look for rogue connections, etc. This can be amusing, though.
