When making a pitch to an important group (boss, client, student body, a pretty girl etc) it is possible to get tongue tied: it happens to everyone. The reason, ultimately, is that you are overwhelmed by something you might not understand (you put it down to your boss, your client, the student body, the pretty [...]

The small minded

Ultimately there are entities (concepts, signs, drives and people) who need you more than you need them. They have a tendency to focus, selfishly, on short term objectives that are aligned to their meaning. Don’t let emotional attachment to their regime on reality keep you from progressing.
Australia day

Y’all on the central line platform with your painted southern cross egalitarian faceology … But I’m celebrating a different victory of the antipodes. Not the 99% Fosters: Shiraz, elite financing one percenter baby. High Australian dialect, dig? Rarified blend of Saparavi-Tropical cocktail success and victory over martyrdom, dig? Calibrating the cube, someone whispered.

Sometimes you become upset with other people who occupy a particular role in an organisation. Colleagues, consultants, doctors, politicians, priests, thieves, friends, enemies, wives and lovers. The objective cause of the upset — the reason you give for it — is either specific to the person or general to the role. The impression that either a) [...]
Dear diary …

Dear diary, From this day forth, I dedicate myself to reinterpreting my culture’s God: so that when he writes “Women are inferior”, he really means “The Divine Intellect is brighter on the inceptive surface of the orb of transmission, and dark against its receptive connection.” And when the men of the village rise in anger [...]

Stress, like a drug, is not necessarily a bad thing in cultivating a desirable attitude to life. Stress promotes a level of detachment from pride in the current state of one’s work, and pushes the individual to exceed in the next cycle: to keep pushing the boundary, irrespective of prior accumulated achievement. Stress is detrimental [...]
