belated
I just looked over at my miniature-sized Moleskine to notice that under “Morning” for Monday, June 15, there is a neatly tucked in “Write blog reflection”. Having been surprisingly productive today, I had completely forgot about the one window open in the background. Nonetheless, an article - well, not as much an article as an interview - caught my eye today.
Thriving on the edge of chaos at first made me think of the Big Bang Theory, and consequently, one of my latest engrossments in terms of TV shows.
I have too little substance to make this a mimiuchi.NET-worthy post. A series of flow charts and policies have made me too confused of head to think intelligently any longer. I really should have kept to my schedule and wrote this when I came in in the morning. I think my thoughts were about the latitudes (give or take) that this so-called chaos-order equilibrium is applicable to not just a workplace, but also an individual, a family, a municipality, or a nation, and in fact, all of the world. I had just been through bouts of self-improvement and newly aspired goals, and thought myself very clever in developing this analogy. The key to success, I had wanted to write (or something along those lines), is understanding the direction in which you are striding and its relation to your destination. Yet we cannot spend time climbing over every hill we encounter along the way - sometimes it is simply faster to go around. Therefore, there exists no absolute path in life (or you are an obstinate rock, and mind you, rocks do not move). Just as we should plan out our days in terms of tasks we want to accomplish (use “want to” as opposed to “need to”), but not down to the every hour and minute, or we will soon begin to feel impending doom upon being thirty seconds too late. Take control of your life, but don’t let your method of control control you in return. And thus is life.
I shall attempt to make this sound less illogical when I am clearer of head.
