I need to blog more
Not posting any thing over the past few months is symptomatic of a number of things in my life that aren’t right.
- I need to read more – I really haven’t had the chance to read anything in the past few months
- I need to exercise more – I still weigh around 80kgs. Weigh too much.
- I need to spend more time with my family.
So what does this mean for me? My unbalanced life has become even more unbalanced over recent months. Its time to get unbalanced in the right ways.
Martin Luther King Quote
An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.”

What does money really provide
Being wealthy is a powerful predictor that people spend less time doing pleasurable things and more time doing compulsory things – Inspired by Nobel Prize-winning behavioral economist Daniel Kahneman
And this article also went on to add that,
Rich people spent much more time commuting and engaging in activities that were required as opposed to optional
A vital question that one must ask if they are wealthy is, how do I deal with its responsibility.

Sustainability
What lives dies.
Animal,
vegetable,
enterprise.
No escape.
Not even the wise.
None!
But one—propagation!
Conceive of this:
A stratified
calcified
petrified
Enterprise
in desperation
forgoes habitual cloning
and Tolerates
(allows)
permits. . . .
genuine
birth.

How great men spend organised their time

In this post at LifeDev less is more is definitely true.
The way that great men organised their time is a reminder to all of us that busyness is not always the answer. I think that part of it is about using our most productive times productively.
I know that for myself productiveness also comes in cycles beyond the daily routine. I might have a week where I am incredibly productive and then have another week where I just get the everyday stuff done.
I think one of the hardest things to recognise that after a cycle of productivity comes the routine of making the creation work. Thats hard work and requires perserverance.
