Read something interesting again hahaha
- There are three states of being. Not knowing, action and completion.
- Accept that everything is a draft. It helps to get it done.
- There is no editing stage.
- Pretending you know what you're doing is almost the same as knowing what you are doing, so just accept that you know what you're doing even if you don't and do it.
- Banish procrastination. If you wait more than a week to get an idea done, abandon it.
- The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
- Once you're done you can throw it away.
- Laugh at perfection. It's boring and keeps you from being done.
- People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right.
- Failure counts as done. So do mistakes.
- Destruction is a variant of done.
- If you have an idea and publish it on the internet, that counts as a ghost of done.
- Done is the engine of more.
okay this is from my last sem philo lecturer whose blog i happen to come across this sem again while helping my fren with her assignment.... so was reading my philo blog posts that i've written last sem and realized i'm quite amazed by what i've written hahaha its actually quite interesting and thought-provoking. Of cuz not all the above points are really "right" but its worth thinking about...like 5) Banish Procrastination. oh how i wish i could do that. But then, banishing procrastination should not be accomplished by abandoning the idea after one week of ignoring it...this only results in not accomplishing anything AT ALL.
point 9 is also interesting. remembered a drama i watched (three dads and a mum) where the mum at first found the feet of the "dad" (who is a police) smelly and unhygienic. However, after the mum start to go out to work and earn a living, she realizes that there is value in having smelly and dirty feet, which is hardwork. Running around all day working will result in smelly feet and if you don't have it, means you're just lazing around. so dirty hands and feet is the evidence of being a hardworking person.
yea! I wanna thank God for really giving me the ability to be efficient as i do my assignments... managed to finish my peer review in 2 hours despite the need to read the readings cuz my partner used a very recent lecture topic (thus my readings wasn't done yet hahaha) and i was amazed at the overflowing ideas =) i had more things to talk about but there weren't enough space for the review... He truly is a God of abundance =P
plus because i promptly finished my peer review, i could help my fren with her assignment which i quite enjoy doing hahaha stayed up till bout 3 plus last night (or rather this morning?! haha) to finish one comment... and did another this morning on my way to school on the mrt so was really quite proud of myself! hahaha
think its raining outside..hm...in sch library tapping on the electricity wahahah! but still gotta attend tutorial later...till 6pm today =(
kinda sleepy but then, its ok! hahahaha
yea okay i shall do the assignment before blogging further =)
