Hi Darek,

I believe you can certainly learn soft skills by self training. At least for me, when I am trying to change behavior, it takes a lot of focused effort to change.

I am not sure being an architect is the right job for everyone - you need to like being in the decision making arena and be willing to deal graciously with the politics that go on regularly.

I certainly believe it is a worthy pursuit - it's what I love to do.

Thank you for the question!
