The Process of Life All the things we do is a process.

Wishing to be Anywhere But Here
A Cold Winter Day It was one of those days. It started on Friday. The day was chilly and I wore my long-johns. Considering I was at the institute for over nine hours and didn’t sleep too well the past few days, I was ringing a recipe that would take my well-being away. When Saturday […]
Inalienable Rights
The Best of Times We sure live in a great time. It’s the 21st century. We have access to all the resources and information that is available on the Internet, the libraries, the bookstores. Our will can bend and create anything we can imagine if our minds are determined and driven like Nikola Tesla, Thomas […]
My Real Rival
Contests Suck I hate competition. It brings out the worst in me. If I had to pit myself against anyone, I’d most likely shut down and lose. Then I make excuses why I lost. This hierarchy of who’s first, what’s second, and I don’t know is on third reminds me of Abbott and Costello: Personal […]
Nothing Going Right
You vs. the World So many things are going against you. Physically you have a splitting headache. Your knees are sore. You can’t lift your arms above your head. Mentally you’re spent.

Do What You Are Afraid of
Fear Grabs You It’s funny how fear grabs you, stops you in your tracks. I’ve felt fear for many, many years with my projects and goals. I see the size of the things I have to do, in order to get it done. I shrink away. I’ve had people told me, “I don’t have what […]
Persistence Is Omnipotent
The Importance of Persistence “Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan Press On! […]
Creating Crap is Better Than Nothing
The Doubt of Making Something Good You sit down. You have the piano in front of you. It’s your first lesson. The piano teacher pulls out a sheet of music. You look at it. It is in another language. It has 5 lines going horizontally repeated with a small space. There are small vertical lines […]
