Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
acho esse negocio de criar expectativa a coisa mais cagada do mundo. assim, claro que todo mundo cria expectativa com as coisas. sempre. é impossivel viver no mundo onde há relações e nao sair criando expectativas, mas eu acho maluco que a gente ta sempre ou ficando muito feliz porque elas foram alcançadas ou…
The graver division in society is not between those who support one side of an ideological position, but between levels of devotion and objectivity to the ideological position. Between LOYALISTS and LEANERS. The loyalists find no wrong in their positions, and those who subscribe to them. If there's any fact, any line…
There's a famous story of a group of blind men who wanted to know what an elephant was like. These men had heard a lot about this majestic creature, so they travelled together to the king's palace to visit an elephant. Since none of them could see, each man had to use his sense of touch to feel what an elephant was…
All what we did was based on subconscious…? -B Consciousness is just a self-explanation to our actions/behaviour? Doesn’t mean that your fate is set - whatever experiences you faced is the subconscious that decides on what you’re already taken And your conscious mind is the aftereffects Humans have emotions and that…
I have earned the guts to say this out loud the hard way. I don't HAVE TO do anything. I feel like doing NOTHING and that's what I'll do. I do the things I want to do and feel like doing. There's no shits left to give for anyone or anything else. Only a very calm space inside me where there's an absence of all kinds…
I crave something, I get it. I need something, I get it. Someone close to me needs something, they get it from me. It's a beautiful feeling to not have to worry about costs. It's a beautiful feeling to not have to worry about money. This has been my experience for the past few days after making what can be said to be…
Not really sure how this goes, but I do like the 300 word cap. Halloween was last night and it's always fun to see the kids all dressed up. I'm more of a dress up parent. It feels inauthentic to be walking around on Oct. 31 in your regular people clothes. It's like a no judgement / everyone accepted day. More men opt…
People love to talk about themselves. They may be busy and difficult to get on the phone. But once you get them started, they are delighted to tell their life story. Use that to your advantage. -- If you haven't worked at a startup before, you probably have some idea in your head of what the experience will be like.…
Les dates se confondent ; les jours sont les mêmes. Je me réveille un matin pour réaliser que trois mois sont passés. Mes repères temporels ne suffisent pas à sauver ma pauvre horloge interne. Je vis des journées de trente heures suivies de nuits de dix-huit heures. Ce rythme de vie fut fatal à ma notion du temps,…
When there is pink and gray in a sunset, the pink stands out because of the contrast. On a cloudy day after a sunny one, we might not always appreciate the clouds, but after days of rain, a single cloudy day with no rain feels like a gift. Why can't we enjoy it as it is, feeling fortunate for a cloudy day, which has…
Advice from successful media creators must be taken with a pinch of salt. "Start writing online". "Start a podcast". "Start a YouTube channel". Okay, but hold on. Imagine two scenarios: 1) An online writer making a $500K a year 2) An investor making $5 million a year Both love what they do equally. Both work the same…
In the morning the weather was rainy-pouring, actually. For a moment ı wouldnt be able to go to the library but luckily it cleared up later. Now,I gonna use my english. I am learning english, there for I am going to the library. sometimes, I am reading book there and there is a free tea and yummy cake (thank you…
ahhhhhhhhhhhh i really enjoy going back to old lectures from creators and designers who i consider mentors. when time becomes slow, it is be best opportunity to listen and revise notes. because with time our memory of past content fades...
A friend and I regularly check-in across the ocean - California, US and Vietnam - regarding activities around PKM, GTD, and solopreneurship. Two days ago, I recently shared about my on-goings - "... and lots of self-reflection - or shall I say "Self-Inflection" - I feel like I am at a transition point" Self-inflection…
Tô lendo os anos, da Ernaux certo? Não sei se já falei aqui. Não lembro. Pois bem. Tô sempre me surpreendendo como que eu consigo me identificar com ela, uma mulher escrevendo sobre os anos 60. Como muito e, ao mesmo tempo, tão pouco mudou. Ela falando que quando volta nas folgas da universidade pra visitar a família…
Is not you’re kaypo about others (Used to think some people are too busybody) But you understand there is such thing called people intelligence And the desire and initiative to know something from the start till the end Understand more Know what is the characteristics and “ability” each person carry Everyone is…
Entropy is randomness, uncertain, confounding. Physics doesn't seem to be random, yet it accounts for entropy. It claims that entropy is a measurable physical property. Life is entropic and not. It is paradoxical and not. It is measurable and not. There is an ardent need for clarity, but our understanding and…
I think that´s the feedback I've gathered over the last 4 months or so. It's been mostly this year that I've been completely independent, working on my own, that I've seen it. I've had some hits in the past. Some of like people around call "the 15 mins of fame". And had some peaks in certain occasions. But nothing…
(original: 2006 03 April) tasks and priorities constantly change. learn how to prioritize. - Silver Lining somewhat related to (or contributing to the antithesis of) SL Tip 7, prioritizing is critical when on the job. (actually, it's basically similar to making decisions about how to spend your money ... but wait!…
Estou lendo "A Cidade Solitária: Aventuras na arte de estar sozinho", de Olivia Lang. A leitura tem me absorvido também pelas referências artísticas da autora, que morou uma temporada em Nova York, uma das cidades mais cheias do mundo, mas onde se sentiu terrivelmente sozinha como muita gente se sente nas grandes…
Digital productivity apps - shiny object buffet of apps with low to high caloric brain-nourishment value One's lived experiences deserves to be housed where the moments will be organized, tended, and loved Home sweet home, especially your digital home. --- My love letter to friends who ask if they should switch apps.…
Então... Eu tenho notado, como a maioria das pessoas cronicamente online, que a magreza voltou com tudo. Fica difícil sustentar que você quer continuar sendo uma pessoa gorda quando o cenário geral, tipo, 90% das pessoas já não tem noção e não faz mais sentido a máxima de "não comentar sobre o corpo do coleguinha."…
What you want and what you do Is what makes you you You want to be successful You gotta do what successful people do See people in the MRT using time to play their phone And they are people who utilises and read book And they consistently upgrade themselves Basic things like this but many people aren’t able to execute…
Today is my last day studying, and I can't seem to find any motivation at all. After a month of studying, doing 20 past exams, revising and revising, and feeling like there's always more to cover, today—on the most important day when I should be pushing through the last mile—I feel done, Im done (not done that I'm…
i have heard a lot of conversations attempt to define an NFT era in art as it occurs. the thing is, art eras are rarely defined at their current time. but for the sake of conversation an NFT could be seen as post-post-modern art where a standard is starting to emerge in the format is it created and the exploration of…
The simultaneity of continuity and change is one of the greatest paradoxes that shapes the way we lead our lives. Humanity has more or less perfected the art of passing down elements unique to cultures across generations. Culture ensures we carry the useful things forward with us. Things that aren't get changed. While…
i hate how much i loved your laugh. i hate how lonely all of this growth feels. i hate that you never celebrated my hard work. i hate that i tried. i hate that i loved your car. i hate that i loved every bit of that part of you that made me hate myself. i hate that i stayed. i hate that i waited while your mouth…
Obviously not this one. There's a lot of rambling in my head too, like now. But because these are ramblings, do they matter? Are they worth thinking at all? Should they be shared? Where do our limits lie in thoughts?
Today, I met with a friend who was upset about a recent experience at a car dealership. He felt disrespected by the salesman and was still angry and frustrated about it even a week later. We discussed how holding onto these emotions wasn't helpful for him and that with more information, his feelings could change. I…
What does that even mean? I guess it's good advice if you're naturally eloquent. But what about for those of us that aren't? "Write like you talk" sounds great but even just looking at it on the screen... it looks a bit odd if I'm being honest. Guess I can't knock it until I try it. I have a tendency I inherited from…
Well, one spends a mind boggling amount of time on the internet. But what makes it worthy are a few worthwhile discoveries, like this place. Quite good to just pen down stuff without any baggage. Recently when I started writing poems which were just what I was observing, feeling and experiencing at the time and…
i have had quite an interest in exploring what it means to build and inhabit more “homey” and inviting digital spaces. oftentimes i've had hangups about the polished and performative pressures that i experience on social media apps. feeling the need to tweet or post the perfect thing to represent myself. very often,…
Start slow. Then whenever you progress you’ll learn along the way to make it the best - that’s also a way of starting: when you start to do, you start to learn as well! Never be afraid of starting. Being procrastinating isn’t going to anywhere. It’s not a good system. It kills you slowly, laying on the bed rather than…
Separate the time out for everything. Don’t go beyond the time. Look at Bryan - comes early. Go home on time, but it was effective. He didn’t do anything wrong. That’s the most effective thing to do. Going past your time just because you fucked up some certain thing is your weakness Embrace it and improve Your Alevels…
A typical week starts on Monday morning with office work and suddenly you realise that you have a lot of things pending to be done and you convince yourself that "I will do it over the weekend". This list piles up and finally when the weekend arrives we would have forgotten about it and when we realise the weekend…
Have you ever have conversations You think you wants to be ready before And you slight regretted you only get to think of what you think and should’ve said One minute after what you said. You can only be ready When you keep thinking about it When your mind is occupied about the thing You can’t let yourself caught off…
Skyggene gjør seg alltid større enn de er. Mørket tåler nesten ingenting. Det går i stykker av litt lys.
Meeting people with same experiences as me makes me so excited, in a certain way we just connect in another level, cause they just understand you, they lived through the same thing. Im really lucky to meet so many people that are similar and different at the same time.
When I'm with you, I feel like I'm a thousand feet tall. When I think I've lost you, I feel like I'm dying. I live for all the little moments I spend with you, your smile, your voice, the little curve of your nose and the silly way you make the worst things funny. You are never far from my thoughts. I could write a…
What is the relationship between marginal, radical, or heretical beliefs and one's status or standing in polite society? Status predisposes us to think and believe in certain ideas about the world that reinforce or confirm our location in the hierarchy by virtue of demonstrating to others of equal or higher status…
No words can pin down what we call reality, but words too are real
There were two doors. Not identical.No, that would have been easier. One was familiar, worn at the edges, its handle shaped by years of use. The other stood newer, not inviting exactly, but deliberate. It suggested movement, not comfort. He had the key to neither. That was the first mistake people make when they…
I have wanted to pursue a Master's degree for well over a year now. The desire to do so has been all-consuming and if I'm being honest, exhausting. I find myself struggling to write the essays, and more particularly, the infamous statement of purpose. It's not that I can't find purpose. It is that I do not know how to…
There's this man on death row in California, Ronald Stanford. He's there since he was 13. Lost his childhood, his youth, and still in the prison that took everything away from him. Somehow, he still takes care of his body, of his mental state, showers, cleans up, reads and express. On the walls of his 'room', you'd…
exercise & study (like a language) can improve energy levels. No more “I’m tired” mentality. Say “this is hard mode” and this can affect 精神状态 Remove toxicity around you
I did not expect this one: === anon8858 It’s finally happening. General Rodriguez will make a public appearance for the first time in 2 years. This is the longest time a public official has been outside of the public eye. Last year, the rumors of his death were the top conspiracy theory in the country. These rumors…
i'm serious. just let me know. remember myspace surveys? the best part about myspace surveys is that as you fill out your answers, you get to read answers from the person you copy&pasted from and it's so fun to learn about them... https://coffeeandcrows.com/2020/07/13/an-old-school-myspace-survey/ this person is so…
ahh some ideas initially spark a lot of enthusiasm. now that same idea does not interest me, it lacks substance. the hard question to answer is do i continue to peruse the idea by giving it more substance? only if the idea to better it sparks stronger enthusiasm than the original idea. this would become a totally…
