Random N.1

With this comes the debut of one of my regular post-types. The Random series. This isn't necessarily all too random as free writing, but it's random in the sense that I have no particular topic to talk about; the rest of the post follows.

I hope to introduce more regular series, talk about things I want to talk about.

Time to hit the ground running!

All I could think right now, is how I've been eclipsed by my peers.

They're off, pursuing their dreams. I hope to be in the same track in the near future, but for now I have to ride it out, this seemingly awkward phase of transitioning from one important thing to another. It's just that my transition is more difficult than what I wanted or was led to belief.

But this period is by no means a reason to slack off. If you view it optimistically, this period can be viewed as a breather, at time to view things from the outside, adopt a bird's eye view of the situation. The period can be used to plan things in a strategic sense, because whenever you are afforded this view you see things that can not normally be seen when you're down, doing the nitty gritty.

Many people would the current position I am in isn't that bad. But, it's become incredibly tedious and boring; I know myself that this is not yet my place in the world. If I try a little harder I might be able to reach something on a better plane.

Whenever you stop reaching for something better, it doesn't really mean you're satisfied or anything; humans are incapable of complete and utter satisfaction. They always want something better. The manifestation is what varies among people. This continual need is echoed in our physiological processes, like hunger. Or growth of your various body parts. The same principle is used by the matter of evolution.

If a lifeform stops evolving, it's essentially reached the end of the line for that lifeform. Adaptability is hinged on evolution.

Humans never stopped evolving, and so we live up to this very day.

Going back to planning, the importance of it can never be stressed enough. The saying "if you fail to plan, you plan to fail" can never be true enough.

But even with this planning thing, critical thinking must be exercised. Plans aren't really stiff rules that have to be followed; it would be better if they were more of 'outlines' than indicate the direction you're supposed to go to at a certain point in time. Plans that were made too stiff will inevitably catastrophically fail if it fails to adopt to the prevailing situation.

I suddenly feel like Captain Obvious LOL

I compare life to a pendulum. A pendulum perpetuates motion once it is initiated. But, if it ever stops, that would mean the end of the motion. If I stop moving, or I stop thinking about things big or small, that would be the end of my intellectuality and thus the end of my life.

So never allow yourself to be stifled by others. Freedom, even though in its exercise might reach into the most extreme, most bizaare forms it is the exercise of freedom still; damage control can be performed, but even though a particular action resulting from freedom may be a mistake, mistakes may become the hint to a future problem

Told you this was random.
