Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
You want it - you need to get it. Speaking like yourself And having that “qualifications” and deep thought process Having a mind is one thing But speaking eloquently and able to convey your messages to the world is one too You think of mum - speaks and shouts loud but no content - people look at her for fun Think of…
The startup journey is full of hidden traps that can destroy even the most promising companies. I've seen too many talented founders fall into these psychological pitfalls that silently kill startups from within. This happened with myself during a certain phase and thankfully a coach held the mirror. These aren't the…
I am a sucker for new (mostly productivity) apps. Tell me about your latest notes revolution, or calendar, or browser/whiteboard, and I just have to try it. I’m seeking that elusive optimal productivity, while ironically wasting time farting around with the tools rather than actually creating. I’ve noticed this…
Your life and mine eyes that intertwine. Like rings around a finger and golden sheets of amber. Like a bicycle wheels belonging to childhood. Innocence and romance, Chocolate and laughter. Your life and mine, like the surface of a swimming pool in a fresh morning. Or the side of a river, calm. And pebbles. Your lips…
as coisas mudam tão rápido né? começo de ano mais uma vez, estou mudando de casa, mudei de emprego e me vejo rodeada por caixas e buscando desesperadamente assentar. no trabalho, as coisas tão ficando cada vez melhores. completei três meses hoje e continuo feliz. quem diria que a minha enxaqueca semanal era por…
The title of the post is a misnomer-I have not written much except when compelled to on a few occasions. In that sense, a more appropriate title would have been "why I'm starting to write and hope to continue writing". However, the urge to plagiarize Orwell and the fear of turning readers away at the outset combined…
Today, I had a really nice Zen day. I'm in Crestone, CO visiting for a month. I enjoyed the mountain view and the local library, where I read a book about stillness and being present in your moment. Last night, I contacted our Airbnb host to ask about why my trash had not been picked up. The response kicked me out of…
I can't begin to count the number of new beginnings I have declared. Maybe it's my perfectionist streak in me that demands this. Maybe I should fix this, maybe not. But I do hope to make this one count. There are a few things, I aim to implement in my life. Firstly, thinking about mine and others' failures. I'm going…
Scene 1 Driver rang the door bell for car keys. Father goes to the main door and is off in the car with the driver. He is back in 5 minutes. I ask mother where did he go that he is back so quickly. He never goes for morning walks. Mother says he went with the driver to refuel the car so that the driver can now go run…
ahh i have been revisiting a series of photographs called 'metaphors' by Ettore Sottsass Jr. each photograph would prompt the viewer to challenge how they view architecture. my favorite is titled 'Virtual Architecture'; a physical space made to represent a digital space. the concept hints to our physical limitation…
We all have sense of self, an identity that we are known for but in reality the sense of self doesn’t actually exist. Your perception and thoughts of the world are born from the environment you are now in and the environment you grow up as a child in. Your character is what you are to others, what you show others is…
I received the death news of a close relative today. For a moment I was speechless as the end of life has been the single most mysterious truth for me. It's the ultimate inevitability that makes life so precious. We acquire all the survival skills in the journey of life to meet death one day. It's also the ultimate…
A comfort zone is a beautiful place but nothing ever grows there.
We are all but pawns in someone's game of life. When we have absolutely no control over some things, the only thing we can resort to is to take a deep breath, sit and back and let the future unfold. There is no point putting the heart and mind to strife.
escrevo ouvindo "Eu amo a falta de silêncio do mar" da imensa e sem fim LIA DE ITAMARACÁ! eu não sou uma pessoa religiosa. depois de 18 anos na igreja, quando saí foi um alívio não ter mais obrigações relacionadas a isso. era reconfortante cantar as mesmas músicas mil vezes e ter onde se agarrar com fé? SIM, massssss,…
Yeah, you expect me to believe dinosaurs were mega-huge? And then animals just stopped being so big arbitrarily? Oh we-ow there's not as much oxygen or whatever - so T'Rex woul've been dog sized if it had allergies? Isn't it interesting that the dinosaurs just happen to get bigger the older the fossil is? Don't…
It’s time to lock in. Lock in on your dreams. Lock in on your work. Lock in on your standards. Do the boring work and it will work. Leave nothing to chance. Create your own luck. Lock in.
Most people don’t know what to do or what is in their future. It’s not easy & that’s meant to be. To do something difficult & to study - that’s a good way of life. You’re kinda okay with the hardness and the toughness of construction industry now. You can literally do anything else! Fail more. And fail quick. Any…
Sleep is my most important resource. On average I need around 8,5 hours of effective sleep. More than other people. Without it, I struggle through the day, with everything from thinking clearly to staying motivated becoming a challenge. And I am also quite sensitive to sleep deprivation - feeling symptoms of cold and…
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…
Giving a gift or receiving one is so complex, right? One never quite knows what someone would like. We're grappling with how useful, grand, meaningful, or liked a gift will be. The anxiety around a good gift never ends because, for the one giving, it is a matter of 'how well did I do?'. For the one receiving it, there…
In 30 min more I'm going to a volleyball training, I know no one, I have realized that if a know someone even if I know them only online, not even in person, I have no anxiety when going to social gatherings. When I don't no anyone at all its a completely different story, I start to question if I should go or not, my…
Got to think that one of the main deterrents acting against a writer’s production is the idea of his readers knowing he thinks or feel certain things. Period.
Working in IT as a software and solution architect I spend all day making rational decision or writing rational papers or reports for others to make decisions upon. I look for holes others have missed in plans or decision with the overall goal of shaping the best future for the company. In most cases the best/most…
Muita coisa acontece fora do nosso controle, começando pelo nascimento. Como todo respeito a quem acredita, eu não consigo aceitar que escolhemos voltar ao mundo para resolver picuinhas de vidas passadas. Não acredito que a gente escolhe "vou ir no útero dessa pessoa e não daquela". É tudo aleatório, na minha opinião,…
You'd be surprised by how many people are in the same situation as you. Last year, before graduating, I decided to study for a second degree. A lot of worries went through my head: "I'm behind," "I'm going to be the oldest," and so on. Many of these thoughts were just excuses to stay in my comfort zone, but I pushed…
What percentage of your time is spent consuming and what percentage is spent practicing being the person you aspire to be? When you are growing into adulthood, it is natural that you are a big consumer of information on the worlds around you. And of all the options you have of dealing with that world. However,…
I feel sadness I feel blocked I feel stupid What are the thoughts producing these feelings? - There's so much to do. - There are so many unknowns. - My words don't always make sense. - Am I actually bringing value to this world?
Today is my birthday. For some reasons I don't like my birthday. Why could that be? As a child, birthdays were magical - filled with excitement, gifts, and cake. Now, as an adult, the shine has worn off. Why? Perhaps it's the contrast between childhood anticipation and adult reality. As grown-ups, we can buy what we…
When you were a kid you thought everything is possible And why adults are always so busy as having so many excuses That’s because adults learn the bad things Never ever endulge yourself in the bad habits Find the good things Always Do the best
Tina was telling me how in high school, her teacher asked her "what are you the 0.01% at?" Although she didn't know it at the time, she spent her whole summer thinking about it and realized that not many people she knew were able to read through 2 books in a day, synthesize it and add original thoughts on top of it.…
when i'm alone, i don't eat because to eat, you have to cook, and if you cook, you have to do the dishes and it's just not worth the hassle (i can't understand people for whom eating is such a pleasure that they'll go through the trouble of not only cooking, but BAKING) it turns out it's far more enjoyable to be…
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…
I just miss you so much but I don't matter to you anymore I will to tell my heart that It is not cooperating at the moment
I started this year, finding out my supposed boyfriend had a pregnant finace. It was a nasty experience, but I had to forgive myself and forgive him to forge ahead.
codeberg.org merupakan website remote yang cukup customable dengan keamanan privasi yang ditingkatkan (klaim dari codeberg.com). Aku mulai menggunakan codeberg belum lama ini yang dikhususkan untuk hal-hal pribadi, sedangkan github aku khususkan untuk dokumentasi tugas kuliah atau proyek yang mengharuskan menggunakan…
just because you're entitled to an opinion, doesn't mean you're required to get one. and just because you relinquish your right to an opinion, doesn't mean you're an idiot. the brain cells required to keep up with that shit can be spent elsewhere, if you so wish it's called the freedom of thought. when i hang out with…
Why you haven't been achieving your to do list or your productive goals; in a YEAR or in the LONG-TERM PLAN PLEASE BREAK IT DOWN. It's actually how you break it down and having that SYSTEMATIC approach (which might sound like it's a bad thing but it isn't) Apply that SYSTEM: Having that 0 & 1 switch All success from…
would be a good day if we would be a could be.
I have doubts now and then. I sometimes doubt that I could make something work as I get deeper into the domain. I sometimes doubt myself about whether or not I could success. I sometimes doubt myself about whether or not what I am doing will turn out to be successful. I doubt myself everyday. But that's natural. I…
Ahh recently i was prompted by someone to try a different technique for a creation. it was new to me and required patience to learn. as i played with the technique, my ideas evolved into a more interesting creation. now it is time to further that idea and create something even better...
ppl dream so small. every comment on every live performance of every artist says "i want to go to their concert". not i. i want them to sing this to me privately in the fucking shower. matt healy. "robbers" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qu2QXKDNoWs this. in the fucking shower. let's go.
one of my goals in life used to be to feel stoned without smoking weed and i realized that you can do that it's called art. consume it, make it. listen to music go on a run (yes specifically go on a run) it's very simple and this is why proust thinks that art is the purpose of life
i think i was a little manic today i think my baseline is other people's "slightly" manic because (1)i talk a lot (2) i talk fast (3) can be very uninhibited and therefore rude and inappropriate (4) ideas are strange (in a good way like i'm not even going to sit here and pretend to be self-deprecating -- today i…
Day 3.5, 5:30 pm: does the new publication automatically subscribe everyone? what art for the first "intro" teaser--mom in the kitchen photo or a sketch? Day 4: writers' hour, 5 am, stuck on the monthly blog post which is about mom's newsletter. does this count toward my 15 minute goal of anything C&T related? yes. an…
Do things you think are stupid but other people swear by. Maybe you’re the stupid one. - Nat Eliason I fought the recommendation to journaling. Now I know everyone should. If you want to start small with a journaling habit, start with gratitude. Here are the benefits you can expect. Identifying what you have, allows…
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…
I was supposed to be at the top. I spend most of my free time reading about politics, history, philosophy and economics. I live in the world of ideas. I think in terms of strategy. I want to lead. I want to tell other people who don't share my talent for strategic depth what my vision is and for them to implement it.…
