mark’s last blog post: Don’t Let Anybody Tell You That You Can’t

Have to think about that a bit more though, because in a sense I think it already exists - it’s a notebook ;)

…and that’s exactly why I always carry one with me. Lately, I’ve been having just one problem, though: I keep losing my pen - and a notebook without a pen is rather useless, isn’t it?

@Terence: Monkey personality, huh? :) I think I have that too. But recognising it is the first step to making the most out of it, right?

And looking at all the things you have achieved so far makes me think that there’s nothing wrong with some monkey personality!

@Nimic (and others): It’s great to see that you all mention the quick side projects in your comments! Apparently, that’s something that makes a lot of sense - and probably something worth a little more attention in the future. Thanks for the affirmation!

Those quick projects are a good way to try out new ideas that you might not feel 100% comfortable with. You can toss a bunch of things out there, and see what sticks. What gets the most traction can be your next main project.

Nimic’s last blog post: How We’re Going Green at Home and Work

I found a big problem in my life. I have too many great ideas. I often worked on multiple ideas the same time. I also often got tired with ideas that is no longer interested me.

I believe that I have a Monkey personality. Never settle down on my thing. Monkey always grab the apple and give it one bite than throw it away. Monkey will then find another apple and give it one bite.

I would add #10 into my list.

Control your personality to concentrate on the things you want to get it down.

Terence Chang’s last blog post: Weekend Confession 11 - Where I was? Where will I be?

My problem with writing down ideas is that most of the time I write them down in different notebooks, different pieces of paper or ‘post-it’s. And than I have problems keeping track of the progress or the current and the new goals. (Actually, a lot of times I accidentally ‘run into’ one of those lost/forgotten ideas and surprise myself that I have even come up with something like that - no matter if I thought it was funny, good or impossible).

And you have definitely a good advice for the ‘freeze’ period Jarkko.

It is the most critical time for a completition of a goal/task. And if you don’t find a way to get rid of the Sisyphus feeling by completing some short-term and less tedious task, you’re busted. And that takes down also your self-esteem and accountability all together (I simply cannot keep quiet about whatever I am doing. Actually, I think that sometimes I over-communicate things ;))

But that’s really the only way of getting things done: one thing at a time and with lot of patience and will.

right now i want to:
1) Follow EURO action…as a hardcore football fan…i shaved my head ;(
2) Contribute to microfinance works like grameen foundation
3)listen to lots of music(last.fm)
4)fitness workouts
5)look for a “right” job

right now i am fighting a serious battle… a part of me wants to enter SAP ERP area the other wants to enter Networking(VOIP)…i am starting my ccvp preps soon… studing for gmat also…and ofcourse writing my new poem… about being interested in many things……my gf used to tell…its because i am not focused….but i am happy today to read this blog…

But my heart tells me to live my life to the fullest… so i have decided to pursue my hearts desires within practical contraints imposed by society….
