Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
ahhh! today creation is hard. it frustrates me. reoccurring in my mind as an emotion, fades from top to bottom. somewhere in the gradient is the perfect colour that represents the output of my frustration
Why is it so hard to start working out again when I know it’s going to help me feel better? I know it’s going to have a positive impact but it’s still so hard to start
The other night I gave my wife a formal amends for some wrongs that I had done. And now that I word it this way I forgot the most difficult and important three words: I. Was. Wrong. I admitted to and asked forgiveness for being judgmental, being a score-keeper, being unappreciative around the house. Lastly, I asked…
Today was a day when i was having starting trouble The only thing that really got me kicked up and ready to go was when i got a call from an external entity. What do i learn from this? 1. I do not like moving when I do not know have any plan in place about how to achieve what I want to achieve 2. I am almost always…
I love watching MMA fights and breakdowns on videos. Slowly over time I have become a big time MMA fan. It is the pinnacle of athleticism. There is nothing quite like it. Combat sport athletes don't train to simply 'play' a sport. They train to fight with another human being. Their bodies are supremely functional and…
It's been over a decade since I last started a blog, so curious how this will feel. Blog feels like an outdated term for this—I guess I mean, "long-form tweet!" Just perused the aforementioned blog I made as a young person. I'm so glad to have a record of that time, even though I didn't write much about anything that…
hearts are complicated organs. when i wanted to become a surgeon, i knew i'd choose neurosurgery. there was something - something i haven't still defined - something the world hasn't yet uncovered - that makes a mind make a heart. complicated, isn't it? we look for answers where we know there are none. we wait when we…
I struggle to understand my emotions.My calibration ranges from sad,happy,hurt and angry.Beyond this I go "Idk it felt weird/not nice". An incident is making me ponder over this incapability and its real meaning. Context:I'm not close with my relatives.I don't share,ask about their lives,don't call,dont spend time…
(original: 2010 November 8, excerpt) f|back: when my friend oracle speaks ... ... or [when my friend "oracle"] types ... when i chat with my friend, i enjoy the intellectual banter that ensues. my friend earned the nickname from "the oracle of delphi" - he shared a series of different answers to his daughter's…
One social skill shows people you speak to that you care about them. I noticed it yesterday when I commented on a Twitter post. The person began their response to me with my name. I immediately felt like they knew me. We've traded a handful of Twitter comments. We haven't met face-to-face. It's easy to make a habit of…
Understanding and addressing the side effects and consequences of technology early can prevent them from becoming the foundation on which a product or an entire industry rests. Instead of hiding or ignoring these negative side effects, we can use them as design criteria. Any technology that mediates human attention…
Apparently sleeping is really good for when you are sick, so thats what I'm gonna go do now, I'll tell you guys how it goes or if it works :) byeeeee
Climbing up to the Himalayas. Meeting someone and that someone is YOU. Feeling delightful, joyful, and vibrant. Finally You found the real YOU.
.. or public writings for myself? Who knows what this will evolve into, but it seems at first glance to be a natural step forward from using The Most Dangerous Writing App to get my thoughts out on paper, back when I was a teenager. Personally I have always felt the struggle of wanting to be in a community, to share…
Oi. Hoje eu fiz uma fala preconceituosa com uma colega de trabalho amarela e quero um buraco pra me enfiar. Foi relacionado ao estereótipo batido de japoneses fotógrafos, porque tem esse senso de que fotografar é quase natural pra eles... Que estupidez. Tô me sentindo mal e vou remoer isso um pouquinho, pera lá.…
Omfg, seems like something big is happening in La Paz City. === anon8858 I’m still recovering from the shock of the assassination attempt on General Rodriguez. I was there covering the General’s speech for El Subsuelo. This is the most disturbing scene I’ve ever witnessed. The General was arriving at the stage when a…
I expect that someone in my family will be on Mars in the next 10 generations. After all, I'm part of a tribe that travels. My ancestors were constantly on the road, exploring opportunities for their next generation and the ones that come after. It's baked into my genes. But it presents a conundrum. What mindset,…
(original: 2010 August 03) i connect dots. random? NO. shuffling around of dots? ALWAYS. including people? YES. mindmapping in motion ... i often find myself connecting events, information, people, and activities that seem unrelated to some but are (or should be) related. back in 1995, i called it POE's Corner -…
We ended pt 3 by asking, in short, why can't we leap before we look in our quest for creative colutions? One answer is that we've tried shortcuts. Check the web. It's full of models, maps, diagrams, templates, tools and advice on, 'how to write a killer headline'. While a disciplined approach is clearly of some value,…
In the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, the tech industry made two inferences that broadly informed strategy: - Software is now going to eat the world at a massively increased rate - Many people now like to work remotely and have a better work/life balance The industry accepted this as a package deal: fine,…
Extractive systems exhaust resources by removing them faster than they replenish. These systems are parasitic, while regenerative systems are symbiotic. Regenerative systems protect and enrich what they depend on. Consider a few regenerative examples: - A regenerative economy would protect the natural energy systems…
To think positively Making the best out of any situation Think even you think about leaving a job E would probably be rational - get better job and income before thinking of actually having no income To think of so many things - and telling people that why do you want to get a job you hate after getting all that…
I picture existence as a film reel with infinite frames. All big bangs, everything that was and everything that will be, are captured on those frames. One flawless complete existence, Nature. Nature is intelligent and curious. It wants to know itself and experience every frame of that film, which is it. How does…
Remember the childhood tale about an emperor wearing invisible clothes but, in truth, was naked? His Council of Ministers and the kingdom did not tell him because they feared his wrath. But, it was a child who laughed and said, "the Emperor has no clothes." Now place yourself in the shoes of the Emperor's Prime…
I'm sitting in my garden enjoying the last moments in my house, fresh air, tranquil and great weather. Time goes by so fast, feels like last week when I would come back to school to this feeling.
slow sunday . routines shape-shift. a day of self-forgiveness. no need for speed. languish on couch and, fueled by words of other writers (some intentionally motivating, some effortless), a sticky note: the mini plan for today's writing. NB: dear self, why do i feel compelled to make everything sound just right in…
Let’s not be toxic towards yourself & to others Be loving Be better Broaden perspective Meet more people That comes from confidence Confidence comes from discipline You found yourself not feeling toxic anymore (she’s supposed to be feeling against me, etc etc) Which in fact Is there a spoken rule or a written one?…
This is the deal. There are no "one size fits all" solutions in reality. You can see this out there in different realms. Be it the product creation, the medical, online course, financial and so on. It's like that meme of the different characters along the bell curve. Which also relates quite well with the graph of…
I keep having these moments of insight that bring a sort of relief but are quickly trivialized by the judgmental critic within. It's the same voice that has discouraged me from writing or sharing much of anything anywhere, with anyone. (Here's to victory 1 and knocking out my publish goal for 2026 as early as…
Every some years, a band comes from left field and knocks your socks off. You have no expectation of them, maybe you'd never heard of them before. Leaving aside the bands of my early growing up years, bands or artists that have had that effect on me have included The Talking Heads, The Stone Roses, Nick Cave and the…
The big picture is tempting, especially if you’ve been there before. You think you know exactly how to get there. There’s a problem focusing on the big picture. Whether it’s familiar or new, there are many distractions. Having that big picture in mind is needed as a goal. The options you have to reach the goal can be…
Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, falls victim to the shiny new object syndrome. In the world of tools for thought (aka TfT) or personal knowledge management (aka PKM), this is doubly true. Every other week there is a new tool that promises to deliver EXACTLY what you are looking for. How could you not try it out, right?…
6h da manhã e ainda estou bêbada de chandon e tendo uma jornada aqui no vaso da casa de praia. Meu cunhado casou ontem e eu adoro casamentos, mesmo odiando. É de uma contradição, mas explico. Adoro pela vibe das pessoas, todo mundo se arruma e obrigatoriamente fica feliz. É bom pra rever gente legal também e dançar…
conheci o nicheless pela newsletter da lalai e me apaixonei logo pelo layout, design e proposta. mas ficava sempre na cabeça a necessidade de firmar um compromisso de escrever todo dia ou coisa parecida. resolvi ser descompromissada. escrever quando quiser, mas quem sabe arranjar um jeito de lembrar mais facilmente de…
Human thought is shaped not just by what we consciously know but by the invisible assumptions embedded in our culture, education, and social norms. These frameworks operate like mental software—unquestioned yet profoundly influential. Gregory Bateson, in That Every Schoolboy Knows, urges us to interrogate these…
"Do you want to come build something?" It was an important question, something I had been thinking a lot about lately. You can't know the answer if you never ask the question. I had never asked it myself. -- I didn't think much about startups when I was younger. I had always focused on school, moving from one grade to…
Regardless of what you do, we all have little moments in our daily life, where our minds get cluttered up with all kinds of negative thoughts, So, what do you do to get yourself out of it? this blog is just for it. I read a lot of self-help books, and everyone seems to have a different answer to this issue.…
I genuinely enjoy listening and learning about the person in front of me during conversations. And I want to get better at this. The art of asking the right questions is crucial in this process. It's the easiest way to become more charismatic, as being a great listener and question asker naturally draws people to you.…
I was reading a post by one of the Nicheless users about how he became a Corporate Lawyer by fluke. This reminded me how life doesn't make sense if we look forward. But it makes sense when we look backward and connect all the dots. I started curating and writing a newsletter in October 2020. I didn't have any plans…
We are chaining ourselves to knowledge representation that were necessary, not because they served us optimally, but because of physical constrains in out environment that made them necessary. Why do we still stick with serialised and sequential learning if they are mostly misaligned with human learning? Tradition is…
The lenses we use to view events in our lives can greatly affect our perception of those events. I'm sure you've seen pictures of galaxies, with their magnificent colors and shapes. The naked eye will only see a black space because it is only capable of seeing visible light. But with the right set of tools, you can…
你先去做 做出一堆狗屎 在慢慢去改. 只要做了 你就会发现你的技术会改进 “你可以懒惰 粗燥的做 可是千万不要想你变得完美了 才去做”
Sim, vou pra Minas Sozinha Amanhã Rs Em 29 anos é minha primeira viagem sozinha sozinha. Tô me inspirando em várias mulheres que leio desde os 17. Demorou né? Meu tempo. O tempo das coisas. O tempo da coragem. Só hoje lembrei de lavar meu cobertor conforto. Não acho que consigo sem ele. Vou lavar algumas outras roupas…
One receives a phone call at 7.30 in the morning. An excited and almost tear jerked voice says they’ve hit water at 32 feet. The borewells in the region are at 780 feet. I can hear the joy in the voice with a slight surprise which is veiled by relief. The city coughs its dry spell in exploited ground waters and lack…
Today, my friends surprised me after my exam with an outing to an escape room. There were three of us, and initially, we thought we needed a leader. But once we started, my friend (1) and I couldn’t help but get distracted by all the information we could find. Friend (2) focused on the written clues while friend (1)…
ahhhhh i feel to create a more relatable design it helps to introduce imperfection. it provides the end user to continue the process of creation making the outcome more unique...
The advice on how to lead a mindful and healthy life won't stop. Everything you do and your manner are incorrect. The internet and its natives have made a decision - you must change. Everything about yourself has to be new.It has to be different. It has to be optimised and efficient. Often, especially on Instagram, I…
the wind is howling and i am sitting inside the boat, cozy and warm and drinking peach tea and listening to this monk talk about non-duality thinking and he said "the mind is a clear blue sky" and i don't know what it means! but i like the way it sounds as i stare at him i became aware of a brand new concept: that…
