The absurdity of our habits of being busy

Do you have a habit of keeping yourself busy?

I had, now looking back, it looks really absurd.

It looks like this:

From Jan to mid-Dec, busy at work.

Each day I was busy telling people "I have no time",
or a variation of that.

Each night I wished I had time to do that something,
something like "read that book", "do that exercise",
or "invest time with that someone".

Then it was holiday time.
Finally, I had time, right?
Except we are a creature of habits.
So I was busy traveling, getting from one
destination to another, one resort to another,
busy photo-taking and shopping.

As for the things I had always wanted to do?
"Oh, I was too busy because ..."
A bunch of bullshit - so much that it really
gave me good excuse to procrastinate for
another year, and another...

"Maybe I will try harder later"

Is this absurd?
Please share your view below (unless
you are too busy.  In that case, you can
try harder later".

Merry Christmas and happy new year!

What do you do with absurdity?

Some people complain about absurdity, some laugh.  The wise profit.  ~ Dr OIC

Now that the Feb has done what I have been predicting for 2 years (i.e. QE2), what is next?



I predict: QE3.

Mark my word.  Whether it is called QE3 or not, it is coming.

Why?

The current deficits, both trade and fiscal, in the USA is huge and accelerating.

There are only 3 ways to deal with it.

1.  Raise tax - which is not likely.  As predicted in my workshops, in a democratic society where politicians are elected, any idea to raise tax is a wishful thinking.  Take a look at the world in the past 12 months, both the UK, Australia and Japan have new Prime Ministers (in those countries, a PM can be voted out anytime in contrast to the USA where the president, no matter how unpopular he is, has 4 years to finish).  President Omaba just experienced a major setback in the mid-term election of the USA.

2.  Cut spending - just like option 1, it is both politically unpopular and economic suicidal.  Look at Greece and France, all they see is more riots and strikes, damaging their fragile economies more than saving costs.

3.  Default (i.e. print more money) - as long as they have the right to print.  Unlike PIIGs, the US dollar is still a reserve currency that the world accepts.  Therefore, this is what they just did (in fact, they do not even need to print, nowadays it is electronic - good for saving paper and thus trees).

Option 3 is not a cure for deficits, only to worsen it with interest payments.  Even the most financially retarded knows that you cannot pay a credit card with more borrowing from another credit cards.

Of course, in God we trust, that someone has printed money will print it again.

So what do you do?

You can choose to complain, laugh, or take actions to profit.

What can you do?

Come to my workshop is a good first step.

Just in case you are thinking of me writing such a long blog to sell you a ticket to my workshop, I am now truly laughing.  I can profit far more from riding on someone's absurdity. 

Our world has too many complainers.

My mission is to shift people up from victims and survivors to wealthy people who have the resources to make a difference to the world.

Until next time, live your bottom line!

Have you found your flower?

This movie would never catch my attention to watch it.

However, as if the greater wisdom has planned for it, I watched it.

And I liked it a lot - perfect timing too after the Technology Behind Life was just born and I had a lot to contemplate about life.

Even the name of the movie is so divinely picked.

The movie is about life stories of 6 women.

Very ordinary lives, very ordinary stories.

No bullets, no blood, no extraordinary sex scenes (I guess they all had children, so they must had sex inside their bedroom - the typical normal kind).

In short, this is the kind of life you and I have (well, I assume you are not someone like James Bond or Forrest Gump).

And just because I watched it after I conducted the conundrum exercise in my workshop, I got to see the beauty of this movie.

And it is exactly the beauty of our life - ordinary but magnificant every single moment.

The only question is: are we aware of such magnificence here and now.

Until next time, live your divine miracle!
