When it is not fun, move on!

The following is an excerpt from Richard Branson’s “Screw It, Let’s Do It: Lessons In Life”.
    As soon as something stops being fun, I think it is time to move on. Life is too short to be unhappy. Waking up stressed and miserable is not a good way to live. I [...]

Resource! (Random Musings #27)

The client complains, “Where is the resource? The resource hasn’t reached yet for testing.” The project manager frantically responds, “Our resource is on its way for on-site testing.” At another point in time, the project manager is caught writing, “I am aligning my resources for activities planned for today“.
Resource this. Resource [...]

Gems out of the mouth! (Random Musings #26)

With great power comes big responsibility. If the one being entrusted with such power is not responsible enough to use it responsibly and wisely, they are not entitled to such privilege.

The earlier you fall, the better! (Random Musings #25)

Random login quote, as I logged into my Linux box early in the morning at work:

After all the pain, suffering and sorrow, after so much prayer, so much believing, it ends in an instant, reminiscent of the way one get rids of an addiction — in a jerk. In an instant — and that is it.

Abstinence (Random Musings #21)

I have an overly sensitive stomach and digestive system. I really should refrain from eating most things that aren’t cooked at home. I know what happens when I do it, yet I persist, and wake up the next morning with an upset stomach and a foul mood. Sigh.

I hate what I hate. (Random Musings #20)

If there is something I have come to hate more than most of the things I hate, it is being friends with people who fall down quickly to grab your feet when they are in need, convince and assure you that if you need anything, you need only ask of them, and turn colours faster [...]

Random Musings #19

With a little more focus, I can achieve a lot more.
People wish they had one thing or another in their lives all the time. Often, I wish I had better eyes. I would be learning twice as many new things as I am right now.
But that is being ungrateful for what I have and what [...]
