Resonance: The Echo

Published on

Am at such a career building stage, and learning lot of new things everyday. Every day I wanted to blog and write something, and even now at the time of writing, I’m enjoying to put up and convey something as a post in my editor, emacs. The point, is “I have to just start”.

The sound All these days, some of the thoughts have been echoing inside me, recursively bombarding with same realization and finally coming to the same point. I would like to note down some of the points that are amusing and as a record that exists to realize.

Whatever task it is, “Just start”

I realized that just starting anything is not only half done, but its a perfection. Issues and complication start when I don’t start and exaggerate thinking about it.

Don’t follow the system, Let it just work

Cool trendy, shiny tools and concepts bloom up every morning, cause its how the world is hastening up. But chasing something new, is a huge mistake and leave us nowhere out in the blue. Simply trying to adapt to shiny trends will lead to new issues and new challenges. That is good in some sense, and should be welcome. But we have to know the priorities.

So better to follow something that works, and adapt and improvise it. As I feel this true for my note taking system. I feel zettelkasten system is not adding any meaning to my workflow. I feel it might only make me feel lost and lose information with FOMO (fear of missing out).

Since I’m fond of org-mode, it might be reasonable in my case. So I think sticking with few large org files is a go-to and a best strategy, given that I utilize the tools properly and craft my own wizard-ery flow!

Nothing in life makes sense, after a period of its time

Every matter and material has some time in our life, past and post that, its useless and alien to us. For whatever we fight, and chase during that time, is a laughing material for the future you.

I believe that, we need to sit down and think properly of what’s going on with us. Its a good practice to better understand about self. I’m sure many don’t notice or feel about themselves these days. Completely lost and being someone they want to be. But lost the person they were born to be.

Silence, and No is the best answer to many

Many times, life deviates with noise and nodding “yes” to questions. Some seconds of silence and “No” would elevate life’s progress and improve the betterment of life for many.

Don’t be a judge

Judging does come with a price, at the end we may lose our own support. As I said, silence and simplicity voyages the person to bright life.
