I never meant to go back to facebook but I did. I'm only 75% alright. I wanted to avoid people till I was 100% alright. But I guess I have no control over things. It is better if the remaining 25% implodes rather than explodes. I don't have any idea but I believe a greater intelligence is running things.
I have got a pneumonic for the way I work. It is START CMS.
S - Scope management (which is basically dealing with the project triangle)
T - Task management (basically prioritizing by importance, dependency and availability)
A - Ask for help (ask and the google god will answer)
R - ROTE (Run - Observe - Theorize - Edit...basically Kolb's cycle)
T - Testing
C - Concentrate (the Dharana part of Pathanjali Yoga)
M - Meditate (Dhyana)
S - System (something like Samadhi)
It also sounds nice...Start CMS...I'm a chronic procrastinator focusing on Content Management Systems.
It's pretty straight-forward. And when I do start working, I will not be bothering about things alien to me. And Krishna says that one becomes perfect by focusing on his duty. Come-on, when there are people cleaning toilets as their job, this is something that is a luxury.
I now have 2 instructions to my mind, the 2nd an outcome of the 1st...
1. Do not interfere with the intelligence of the universe.
2. Do your job well.
Okay...in the risk of getting arrogant, I want to say something. I have a very nasty habit of being impossibly adamant if I have set my eyes on something. My counselor told me this habit of mine when I wallowed in my wretchedness. He asked me to do the same in a positive way. Let's see if I can do it with my job.
I also have another nasty habit. I do not take part in a game but if I do, I try to make it a draw. Okay...it's not exactly a nasty habit but sometimes it sucks not to win. But when people compete with each other, a tie or a draw is the only eventual result. Only after a draw or a tie do people think of co-operating rather than competing. It is said that he who laughs last has the best laugh but how is it possible in eternity?
