If anything is guaranteed to constipate an introvert for six months, it's talking on the john. That's where I'm going now. Don't follow me.

My resonation with the illustrations and narrative by Tim Urban.

‘Wait But Why;’ he even did a TED talk recently that pretty much advertised the blog and interesting illustrations on procrastination. So he said that he thinks that not one of us isn’t a procrastinator, even if some deal with it on their own better than others. I think that some of us are always in the dark playground; taking the instant gratification or leisure that is shadowed by the looming responsibilities being neglected. I think that the only ones who wouldn’t be procrastinators are out working in networks or underdeveloped countries, because I feel personally responsible for improving the whole world but that’s not a realistic goal with an attention span shorter than a full decade. (I actually was instantly attracted by the idea of the dark playground from one of Tim’s blog posts. (King of my Dark Playground, Wizard of my Dark Castle, Child of my own Twilight Nature.)) What he actually promotes is training your rational decision making, but I think there’s a lot of guilt that people might need to address. I’m actually managing myself well, not beating myself up for putting things off a bit, because I just have to train my mind and break down some things I can’t do yet and I’m working well towards understanding where we’re at in terms of explaining a physical Theory of Everything and/or the reason for the apparent directionality of time and change in ‘entropy.’ Thanks for reading, I guess. Thanks for thinking about how I must have written this assuming that the possibility of you will ‘now’ be reading this. Thanks for thinking about, at my suggestion here, how I was performing suggestion.

In creative jobs, design in particular, inspiration is one of the keys to productivity. Perhaps, one of the most productive kinds of inspiration is the one taken from experts, successful people who have experienced what they share.
