No Justification

Let's face it, who likes the idea of being appraised against SMART goals? Personally l I struggle with it. I am convinced that we actually don't need objective reasons as to do or not anything. As long as something gets done and the spill of benefits are close to the possibility we aspire towards.  I realized we make dumb convinient choices and are happy with the outcomes. Illogical is what runs the world. There is absolutely no Justification why one should fall in or out of love or why we eat bananas or take a college degree.  When people are good or bad to me I don't take it personally. E.g someone thinks am right for them in business or I am not a good fit for what they have in mind.... I thank them for expressing themselves. Mostly it's not about me. It's all in Obliquity and must be optimized for human perception.  Like a regret letter just wish people well in their endeavors. Next time you ask me anything, just remember my mind is a press office, it will make ...

Instant Gratification

The society we live in is obsessed with speed. We want fast 5G internet, instant Uber rides, easy cash, instant loans, fast food, quickies e.t.c There is always an upside to this. You get the promise to control your time and thus control your world. Perfectly, you want it done your way, your time. Anxiety is akin demon against your god.  Please do not assume all is okay just because you get what you want fast. Other people are affected by you little petty desires or your need for speed.  You won't get anything of value done, if you push people to work against your date lines. They have the right to question, even though not explicitly but internally they ask for MEANING.  Meaning / purpose is not instantly gratified. What are you gonna do about it? 

The Value of my soul in the Market Place

Lately, I have been trying to make sane of my existence. Is there any intrinsic value in being me in this market place of a world? I know, I am not alone in this quest. I am persuaded I am not crazy in refusing to be called a vendor. I just hate to be commodified.  I hate to sell anything to anyone. I can't promise anyone a future if they buy me. I figured I don't do much with people's gratitude who people look to me in the eye and ask, 'What is in me for them?' I want love. I want to know I matter, beyond what I bring to the table.  I know every father has struggled with this stance. Well, I am not for laziness and taking advantage of others. I value meaningful work. Bottom line is, nothing of my skills and' know how' consist of magic. I am not a magical creature. In the meantime, I keep improving by one percent daily, in hope that in 70 days I will be twice as good in what I care about. This is just a mere concept to create a context where the life of my h...

Time is not Money

Time ! = Money You can always make an extra cent but not an extra minute. Both are IMPORTANT PRIORITIES. Realized I don't easily get seduced about the money thing. If you got plenty of it, fine. I just show up as a partner with my time.  If you got no money, but I can learn something being with you, or we can create an alternative future together, am more than willing to give a day away.  Reciprocity counts!  I happen to be shameless about my time, got plenty of it if the wind is not too high. I simply refuse to be treated as a commodity or vendor. I don't sell you anything.  Just figure out if you want us to work something out and we can fix the money thing in no time.  Thanks.
