Yes, I am a Mac user. However, lots of this is cross-platform. (more…)

Thursday, November 5th, 2009Diff’rent Strokes for Diff’rent Folks
Thursday, March 26th, 2009As I sat in the library today, furiously typing out my philosophy paper, I took notice of the gorgeous weather outside and a sudden desire to wander down to the Tidal Basin and sit in the presence of the monuments overwhelmed me. After wrapping up my draft, I set about to satisfy my desires. I was immediately faced with the question of how I would reach my destination: would I hop on the shuttle bus to the Metro station and take the subway down? Would I grab a taxi? Would I walk the most direct way through town? Or would I take the scenic route along the Potomac River? All four alternatives would lead me to the very bench that I now sit on as I type this post; the difference would be the experience of the journey to reach my goal.

I’m prone to “Ah-ha!” moments. Sometimes, I understand that I need to do something and even know what I have to do in order to succeed, but things just don’t click until I have my “Ah-ha!” moment.

For Anyone Who Needs to Get Things Done
Sunday, June 29th, 2008
I just finished reading “The Greatest Management Principle in the World” by Michael LeBoeuf, and I am rather impressed. Though the book was written in 1985, way before the GTD movement, this book is rather inspirational in not only getting things done, but also in creative and lateral thinking, as well as tips on achieving more and things of that nature. Leboeuf stresses that “The Things that get rewarded, get done,” to explain how to manage people and how rewards consistantly achieve better results than punishments. I’ll go into a little detail of what should be rewarded and a couple of other ideas from the book. (more…)
