Day 011

 Dear dreamer,

In the clouds...

I was clearly in the clouds- only not exactly the way it usually seems. It felt like I was newly back from an high -illusion versus reality. I had all of this ideas and things that were very easy to dream of but it is reality now- time to act and do.
First things first, I have to open the blog. I was engaged in it as much as I could ever be so, it was time to do it. I had the blog for day 1 and titles for the next five days but nothing else -that is poor for someone who definitely has no want for knowledge. 

I pondered the issue of age a while ago -the right age to do certain things and eventually it all boiled down to time because in my opinion, it's outright dumb to give a specific age for someone to do something or else they would not be on track. It makes zero sense because late bloomers sometimes perform better in the long run than early ones. Now with regards to time, the best time to do anything is the moment right after you realise it should be done. That perfect timing we are all stalling for -when we'll have more courage, when we'll feel more like it, when we'll get more support, when we'll feel more worthy, when we'll have more knowledge, all of the whens you could think of, I hate to break it to you but I will either way, that time will never come, you might as well quit waiting. Your job is to pick an arbitrary time to build the habit you need for what you want to do by doing it first. You can read it again. The rest will fall into place.

And that made me set out. I searched for sites where I could put my blog. I found one but it did not exactly fit what I needed so I went a little bit further till I found this site. I created the account but did not post anything. Yes, you read it correctly, I still failed to do what I should. This was me attempting to build the habit of blogging by writing the first blog- I had another 'excuse' and got distracted by an adventure that seemed promising penny-wise. I left the blog tab opened -I was definitely coming back to finish it up. 

I was looking for new ideas for product 1, the plan is if I find one that is good enough, I use it, if not, I will retain this original plan. I also started reading books on another field- interesting reveal soon. I have one chance to live this dreams and I am not letting go without a fight. Till tomorrow...

Day 001

Dear dreamer, Thoughts and more Thoughts... This is not your typical 'my life story'- only it possesses elements of it. The most daring thing about this is that I am just going with the flow (whatever that means) . I know not what the end will be, only dare hope it is good just like I think. Everyone always say "Dream" and it is only so hard to do so. They never tell you about the hopelessness in dreaming when you are penniless- which is the initial state of every dreamer. They do not want to discourage you so they omit it from every literature or maybe it is just difficult to describe which is what I want to describe so you can almost feel it... For any dreamer who is a vast reader and learner, the best way to start is to borrow wisdom from from great writers and people who have trailed this path before. From all I could gather, one stood painfully practical; 'Do not focus on what you do not have...but what you need  and find your way to it using what you have...

Day 002

Dear dreamer,  Questions...lots of questions Lethargy...I could literally feel it like a gentle caress lulling me back to comfort-very deceptively destructive state. I started the long, arduous process of shaking it off simply because I have this one chance to live my dreams and I won't screw it up as far as it is up to me.  I started the day wondering if my ideas were good. There were a lot of questions;  Can I pull it off?  I might need help so I called out to my close confidant. I read about something called a kitchen cabinet- it is a couple of people that are literally your guide rails. They keep you accountable, you can ask them questions about anything. Well, they are supposed to be comforting enough yet honest to call you up on your faults without mincing words. I started building mine then so I reached out to the one who I can say is the chief of my cabinet. I ran the ideas by him, he did not have much of an opinion just a lot of questions about the idea and ...

Day 004

  Dear dreamer,  Life Of A Penniless Dreamer I don't know about others but being idle makes me so uncomfortable. Like, I must always be doing something valuable, meaningful, something that is felt but, as it was, I was just waking up in the past few days to nothing but absolute emptiness. Of course, I did some mundane chore but it moved nothing so I was dissatisfied and wondering what exactly I could do- something effortless enough but impactful. Not like I did not have things to do, in fact I had deadlines to meet but I was in low spirits so I had no motivation nor intention and I have learnt to not force some things. Quality dwindles. Poor quality with so much effort. There is something I do from time to time, no fixed time frame but I just organise it as it feels. It's a self-reflection exercise. During the exercise, I just simply review all of my plans and see how much progress I made- sometimes it is depressing, other times it lifts my spirit. It's just to make sure I ...
