Hiya! So as the world is slowly winding down and this noisyverse is also pulling slowly to "sleep" (what is that word?).. here I am shaking my mind with ten thousand thoughts (roughly estimated). Has anyone played boggles? It used to be called boggles but I think right now we call it "word factory". So it is this word game where players try to form words on the letter blocks that settled on their cubed grid. But before they can do that, they have to cover the tray and shake it and then have the blocks settle on the tray. I am currently doing that. My head tiles are not settling in.
My mind is traveling in endless directions and painting scenarios in my head I wish my fingers can catch up and type everything in. Endless directions. Much like crossing the street but bumping into almost everyone going the opposite direction.
So much like crossing the Shibuya.
Anyways I have been musing a lot about this noise and read. I am still amused at meeting a lot of people with great creativity and generosity like my sponsors below (say "below" slowly and linger a little with the "low" part) :
Uneventful day actually. Although I was madly working on a deadline, there was honestly, a lot of procrastinating involved there.
Being human and slightly bummed and bored of course I would like to know why in the world I am procrastinating. I am not proud of it, mind you. But I am also procrastinating being bothered by it. Not sure if you get that part. Well, let us just say I am looking for something to blame it on or reasons behind it. Haha.
By definition procrastinating or to procrastinate means to put off doing something to a later time. In Spanish, I hope I got it correctly, it is called the MaΓ±ana Habit.
Some say there are four types of this. Some say there are three and some say there are five. In my current state, I will pick the one with the least number of types.
On the other hand, understanding procrastinating must be a very interesting study. A lot of reading materials say a lot of varying types I cannot pick one. Nothing seems appealing.
I think everyone every once in a while chooses to delay finishing some things for some reason. Yes. Choosing. Why do we delay? What is your reason for delaying things?
My reason for this very moment would most likely be because:
I do not find what I was working on is interesting enough.
I am most of the time excited and super curious of new things. If it is learning something new, I am normally up for it. This is new it is supposed to trigger the drive. But it is not doing that. Maybe it expired being new to me.
I am also thinking that I also have ample time to finish it later early in the morning. Also, that the next steps will require more concentration to figure it out - meaning I am most likely at the point of no longer knowing what to do next.
Ergo, maybe the reason is that I am already hitting a wall. Which is then just right to take a pause and have another eye to look into it. Ah, yes.
Maybe just maybe I already exhausted my resources and have saturated my capacity to think "what else is there" that I find it just right to take my time and distance myself a bit from it - for the time being.
Yes. Maybe just maybe I am preserving myself from getting burned out.
That is my excuse. What is yours?
Just playing the thought in my head. No worries. Management and discipline is still key.

Word factory or Skrib Age back in my days. Hehe. I still have it with us. We have 2 kaso lang ang wala na ay yung timer. Kasi ang bilis mabasag. Kaya dalawa kasi nabasag yung una so bili ulit. Tapos ganun din nangyari sa pangalawa. That time wala kaming ibang maisip na timer ng kapatid ko. Di pa uso cellphone. Hehe. Hindi naman namin naisip bumili ng timer na lang. Makalaro nga nun minsan. Hehe.
Ako quilty minsan sa MaΓ±ana Habit. Pero tinatry ko na talaga magpakaproductive lately.
