Having A Different Opinion

Posted on August 7, 2023

It doesn’t make you right or wrong. And it doesn’t make you better or worse. Generally it means you interpret something differently than someone else. Which is normal and fine.

You may have noticed a movement or word that your angle, position, experience or education may have enhanced for you. Then you may have filtered that through different thoughts, values and ideas you have from your limited experience and knowledge of the entire known universe.

This can bring you to a slightly different conclusion compared to someone else or even to create a polar opposite opinion.

In addition, you may simply be trying to create a particular position so only select data relevant to your desired opinion.

Rather than be cross, anxious or bewildered by another person’s opinion, try to enjoy watching it unfold. Watch people make up their mind about their opinion, or simply parrot someone else’s (that is socially acceptable among their peer group), and then find the data to justify it or just badger you with their opinion without balanced material. Fascinating.

Get Back To Basics

Posted on August 2, 2023

Comfort is wonderful. But sometimes it is easier to find a stronger connection to life and living when you strip away all the luxury in life. Get back to basics and live with just the essentials of life. Some will find it exhilarating, others will see it as scary and still others will find it necessary. Embrace it once in awhile.

Too Little Time

Posted on July 31, 2023

No matter how much you have, it often seems we have too little time. Whether it’s a trip you are on, a project you’re doing or life itself, you really have to prioritise because time is your essential, expiring resource.

Don’t let it drift away. Work at it, for better results. The effort you put in will be returned in spades (compounded many times).

All The Smart People

Posted on July 28, 2023

Smart people tend to create things. Scientists, engineers, and dreamers. They also are instrumental in bringing creations to life. These can be the financiers, marketers, lawyers and technology folks.

However, after two centuries of progress and improved living standards around the world, some, if not many, of these same types of educated people are saying it is all too much. It’s going to destroy the planet.

How will we keep the advancements but not the downsides. Will all the smart people come up with a decent solution for all?

Some Things Flow Well

Posted on July 20, 2023

Sometimes you’ll notice how well things are flowing, like traffic, an airport, or even your thoughts. And other times you’ll notice that it seems like you’re swimming upstream, going against the flow, or struggling to get traction. Aim for flow, as a producer or consumer, because everyone will benefit.

Non-Standard Items

Posted on July 18, 2023

There seems to be a tendency to do things our own way, as individuals, or in companies. This makes things unique and interesting. Though it can also make things inefficient and difficult. Non-standard items such as electrical plugs, rail gauge and forms could be addressed soon, for efficiencies sake.
