I would be watching a bit of the MSL finals if GomTV or YY would cooperate but neither is. YY sort of works but eventually the video freezes even though the sound continues. Gom player just plain isn't working. I hope Gom can smooth things out so watching their regular league stuff is as hassle free as their GSI broadcast (which was perfect by the way).

so wrote a mod, increased unix knowledge, wrote a tutorial in the past few days. write down your accomplishments and thoughts somewhere and evaluate it periodically it will help. give yourself small goals each day. yours being one item from the list. if your accomplishing that give yourself credit. if you fail your goal, come up with a plan that you can live with that meets your requirements for achieving your dreams. so if getting up late is a big deal to you, set a goal like get up by 8:00am four days a week. then once that works set it to five days a week. if you can't hit four days a week. set it to three days a week. then make sure you achieve it. give yourself credit for that. woke up three days a week at 8:00am. identify what's causing the problem and try to fix that. and make sure your small goals are actually heading towards a larger goal. like becoming the best UNIX programmer on earth. don't wander aimlessly in the area of knowledge. there's too much of it and knowledge without direction doesn't mean much in your life or in the life of others. keep up the good work, your making good progress. to the guy driving from work to home, getting gas is an inconvenience. to the guy driving from california to new york, driving gas is a necessity and a welcome one. remember, making your dreams a reality is up to you. and don't think if you fail its because of you. without you there wouldn't be a dream to make real. it's your dream, show people what it is and remember that it means something. i recently saw a tech visionary at a meeting and there were shareholders present. people had criticisms, some of which he couldn't address. even with that said people appreciated what he had done with the company and his vision of the future, regardless of his various successes and failures. so regardless of the successes or failures, a vision can drive a world in a whole new direction. that's how powerful it is, and having your own is the first step in being productive. artists are productive, but it's not the volume of their work or even the quality of it that makes them valuable. it's their vision. don't have regrets on day 5. honestly in five days i think you've accomplished a great deal, and that's nothing to regret. just fix what needs fixing and give yourself credit for fixing it. | ||
