Yeah, I’m looking at you

You can always make me smile!

20 things…

Andrew Galasetti of Lyved wrote an interesting piece on… well… on life.

He lists (with explanations) 20 things his life has taught him up to this point:

  1. You must create and look for opportunities
  2. Negativity will only bring more of it
  3. Where you are does not determine where you can go
  4. If you can’t help others, you can’t help yourself
  5. Follow your passion, money will follow
  6. Enjoy yourself
  7. If it were easy everyone would do it
  8. Planning is good but so is being spontaneous
  9. You have many talents
  10. Don’t work hard without rewards
  11. Money does bring happiness
  12. Someone always has it worse
  13. You’ll need others
  14. Being open-minded is the key to more knowledge
  15. Failure is great
  16. Most people are actually nice
  17. Words and thoughts control everything
  18. Your view is the reality
  19. Inspiration and motivation are everywhere
  20. You can change the world

I urge you to give it a read-through and decide for yourself what you think of it and of your life in general.

I urge myself to think.  I need to be more positive and to dedicate more time to myself rather than to others.  One of my personal problems is that I am usually too eager to jump to help.  What I should really do is distribute my time and my help more sparingly and realize for myself what my time is really worth.

I really think that in this way people would respect me more and would actually value my advice better.  And I will have more time to give it.  It’s an opposite of catch-22, I suppose.  The less time I dedicate to helping the more time I will have to help :).

I need to think further on this but this article did get me started in that direction.

Crazy people

Better love

LMFAO

So true!!! :)

Found this somewhere online.

Had I made this I’d add “cheating” in front of “psycho” but, alas, I didn’t make this, so we have to enjoy it as-is :)

Hearing aid, etc.

I just read a story by Ron Simon posted in Mansfield news Journal.

Quite interesting, indeed.

Although it’s not something I normally read — the story is about a hearing aid — I still found it enjoyable.  Matter of fact, I am really rethinking some things about my own life recently.

You know, you don’t live forever…  You start to loose eyesight, hearing, etc.  I wonder how the woman in your life would view you, too.  I mean she herself will no longer be much to either look at or touch, but will the connection between you remain?

My thoughts are trailing too far away from that article I see.  Oh well, let’s move on to the next :)

On the topic of life

“Life is an interesting thingamajigger. Too bad everybody dies… too bad.”

I got a cat names Aza

So, I named my cat “Aza”. I gave her that nick after the pussy cat I had for a few weeks. I was uber-allergic to her (I mean the pussy cat)… Ahh… I just looked at the pics… She was a gorgeous cat!

Here:

Aza the cat

So, my new cat shall be called “Aza” now.

Doesn’t it sound African? Well, it’s one of the fallen angels — Azazello.

I like this:

The whole earth has been corrupted through the works that were taught by Azazel: to him ascribe all sin.

This does sound like her. At least if you believe wikipedia on this subject. ;-)

Ahhh.

Aza, say “Hi”. Are you listening? Say it NOW!

LMFAO

She sais “Hi”. She sais “which ‘Aza’, your cat?” I remain quiet. I am typing. “You’re such a character” - says Aza.

I think I like calling her Aza.

However……… I will wait for Dave to give her a nick. He’s usually good at this. He calls her “nook”, but then he calls everyone that… There needs to be a better one. I suppose if we go shopping to… can’t remember that place… there! if we shop there, I’ll have a better idea.

For now, people of the earth, please meet Aza.

If I can’t……. She said “Hello World”. She is OBVIOUSLY not a C or C# or C++ programmer. “Hello World” is RESERVED!

Where was I?

If i can’t have a cat named “Aza” I’ll settle for naming my cat “Aza”.

I think it’s all good.

I will change your life

First, even owning a domain name like that is a… clever idea :)

Some good advice on daily habits that are, well, good to have: “24 Daily Habits“.

What’s more, I think, is that there is MORE to life than following the advice like this, but at least this person takes time to give advice and takes care in giving it. I think the points he brings up are extremely valid for all, unless you can give yourself BETTER advice.

Sometimes, actually at least once a week, I feel I need to take better care of myself, thus improving my life and the life of those around me. However, othertimes I just feel too selfish to do that.

It all depends on YOUR point of view, but Peter’s article is still worth a few minutes of your time to look it over.

Success in LIFE, not only career

It’s important, methinks, to be happy in life, not just moving ahead in your career…

This article goes into just a little more detail and offers some bullet-point advice.

A good short read and a nice way to waste 10 minutes online.

I need to take that “waste less time online” advice myself, methinks.

Don’t chase money, power, or status.
If they come to you, that’s fine. But most conventional ideas about success go wrong because they focus on outcomes instead of on the processes of living. Outcomes come around from time to time, but life itself—the process of living, acting, thinking, and being—happens all the time. No outcome is going to make a lousy, miserable process feel worthwhile.

Modern life…

LMFAO

This IS my life… Except I don’t have much time for gaming lately :)

Modern life
