Day 033

 Dear dreamer,

Another Terrible Odd...

It is my last shot at product 1. It was draining to think of product 1 along with every other thing going on. I felt very calm in a terrible way, like the pause and panic in your last moments. For the first time in a long while, it felt like I did not exactly have a choice. 

Normally, I understand that I would not win all, the odds will not always be on my side. It would be stacked against me sometimes but they never came with warning labels. I just find myself in them when I do. Out of most things, I always try to find something to take along as my reward, so it does not feel like a complete waste, this time, I had nothing to gain or, it just felt like it. I'm just consoled with the fact that I am not in utter confusion. I have new projects to take on so I would pour in my energy into that after all, I have just this chance to do this. 

On my new journey, I have a plan, not necessarily, but I am on the way. However, I am very interested in performing an experiment. I want to see just how good I can be at what I do. I get that a lot from people and I don't believe it but I want to see just how good I am and how powerful a tool it is. My friend once said that our superpower is our ability to learn, just how super can that power be? I need to know so I am doing a little experiment. I will carefully unwrap the details with time.

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 ...
