RE: Worldwide Cypher Jam [ ROUND 36 ] "Calling All MCs/Singers of Earth!!" 白蚁.
OK maybe I'm not mature enough to know my limits, but I do have this thing about 'Risk/Reward' ;-) What it was, you ignored the thing about practicing before doing it for realz ... like maybe a gym, with mats, and of course ... a keg! ;-D
hahaha yeah man, i skipped the gym and mats and went straight for the keg, and handstanded in the street while i was drunk amongst other drunk mofos and then landed on the edge of the curb , bad combo lol
its a great quality to be a risk taker in other instances lol
All kinds of philosophy on this, "No guts no glory" versus "Common sense taking the better part of valor" ... How 'bout, "If it feels right, go for it" ... doesn't mention that sometimes, thinking should get in the way of feeling ...
yeah man, do what your feelin as long as its not gonna hurt anyone , i wouldnt do something if i didnt feel like it , which is kind of a bad thing in terms of doing chores and shit that never get done lol
definitely dont get drunk and do handstands is common sense, but that goes out the window when u are drunk sometimes lol
"observe the curb" ... Impaired observation/risk assessment skill was the problem, I'd say... Otherwise, the whole point of getting drink is to do handstands in the street ...
Tell me about it, though ... had this plumbing problem in my house I didn't feel like getting to until yesterday ... four hours of concerted effort that fixed something that was annoying for months! So yeah, "do what you're feeling" certainly applies to not ignoring feeling annoyed, too! Bad feeling being as important as good feels ...
your right man!! I never even considered smackin my ankle off the curb lol
thats good too man im glad you got it sorted, just shows you how you can get shit done if u put your mind to it. Ive got mad procrastination going on at all times with shit like that, I usually just let annoying shit fry my head haha its not the best way of workin
...a lot of it is just staying on top of it ... too much and most of it slides, only so much one can handle ... I'm mostly opting for what's better, until like you say, it fries the brain to the point of ruining the better things to look forward to ... I think we all operate that way to some extent ...
yeah man I get what your sayin, chip away at it day to day instead of lettin stuff build up to where you gotta work flat out at something.
you gotta have stuff to look forward to otherwise whats the point like lol but i seem to live day to day or in the moment and barely plan at all. workin on improving it though.
That first part sounds valid from all I've heard. The crazy thing for me, I tend to do almost everything 'in serial' not 'in parallel' not 'multi-tasking' ... I'd say I'm most productive when I can focus on something and see it through, not 'piecemeal' like we're trained to do by so many institutions these days! ... That 'context switching' for me robs me of momentum, takes time to drop one task to start another, but maybe that's just me.
The second part about plans ... great when they work out ... technically, it seems only the simplest of plans have a good chance of working out, and simple plans are not necessarily deeply, existentially satisfying. However when 'life-fullfilling' plans don't work out, it could really leave one wishing they lived more 'in the moment' or worse case, nihilistic!
So yes my friend, on close examination, that's the problem ... How we go about 'squaring that circle' is the story of each and every one of our personal lives!
