Burn it to the ground
Terry Pratchett said, “Give a man fire and he’s warm for the day. But set fire to him and he’s warm for the rest of his life.” A man that is set on fire is motivated, cared for, and happy.
Thank you for the reminder of how brilliant Terry Pratchett was!
2015: That's a Wrap
Unexpected growth/learnings/new understandings in 2015. An amazing platform for 2016! "Live fast, on high. Repentless, let it ride." (Slayer) #Project74 remains in full swing. #Project42 is embryonic. Wishing you the best of 2016s!
MBA Scoreboard Update
#MBA #DistanceToDegree: 9 course results, 40 lecture days, 16 assignments, 8 presentations, 9 exams, 840% assessment, 1 graduation to go.
I haven't researched to confirm this is actually a Roald Dahl quote, but whatever, nice line of thought. A light bulb moment recently suggested my personality likes and/or naturally "needs" something to obsess over (some form of #OCD?). Maybe not a good thing, but it is what it is. In succession, I can identify school, university, work, squash, love, work, running, triathlons, work again, food v body weight v body image and now study (#MBA) as the focus of my obsessions. Only ever one thing at a time (how many males can truly #multitask?). Maybe rather than resenting these obsessions, I can harness the energy generated for good? Worth a try...
[Edit] Apparently this quote is from My Uncle Oswald, a Roald Dahl book not for the kids (1). I like this extended quote: “I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it at full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is no good either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be.” Feel free to compare and contrast with Steve Martin’s “Be so good they can’t ignore you.” (3).

BIOS Hacking
I've let my BIOS be corrupted - I need to institute a factory reset. Mindfulness I think is the programming tool of choice here. I'm mindful of the Stockdale Paradox too (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Stockdale). The third tier priority ahead: 43 lecture days, 10-odd exams, 9-odd presentations, 18-odd assignments, 9-odd batches of group work to "survive" (heaven forbid enjoy) in 26 months. The journey begins.
