they do but the imporant thing is trusting that you are making the right decisions. you wont ever know the outcome or results before picking, so instead of being fearful of decisions, you must be confident and be a decider. 'let the chips fall where they may'
take the opportunities offered, they only knock once. but i have given up some awesome opportunities like being moved to LA to work for a web company, but i dont regret not doing it because it was the right decision at the time to turn it down. i wouldnt be who i am today if i went there, and it might be better, but i chose to stay and finish my album and im happy i did.
i had a gun to my head once and during a shoot out i really thought i could die. since then ive known that the most important thing for me to do personally is write my story. if i were to pass sooner than i hope, i want my writing to tell who i am and what ive been through. yes theres a lot i still want to do, like 'paint a portrait' or 'build a house' but finding the essence of your goals is the important part. do you want to make the world a better place? touch lives? do nothing? yes we all want to be rich and shit but for me, knowing i made a difference is my modus operandi
life has tons of up and downs but i am happy. i am enjoying my life, im not looking back worried about missed opportunities, im keeping my eyes peeled for the next. leverage today to build tomorrow. your life is like building a temple. you start with the rough bricks, start smoothing them out, perfecting them, and adding more. throughout your days your temple will grow taller and stronger and more fortified as you reinforce it and square your edges. theres no regrets building this, it only gets better and stronger and more refined over time. i enjoy my days one at a time, but i am always trying to build my future and constantly redefining who i am and what direction i want to go. its all in the same general direction but those little tangents and opportunities in life help open doors you didnt know were possibilities on your path. |

No man ever got very high by pulling other people down. The intelligent merchant does not knock his competitors. The sensible worker does not work those who work with him. Don't knock your friends. Don't knock your enemies. Don't knock yourself. |

People more than ever since I can remember are concerned about being out of step and out of line with their political party and won't cross over. There is nobody, man or woman, who wants to be left out, and people are fearful of that. People are fearful of their leadership as well. |

You know, I'm confident before I go out and play a match that I know, you know, I've put in the work and like I feel confident that I am going to go out there and play well. |

We simply attempt to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful. |

If you're studying for an exam you're not thinking about the results. If you're always worried about the results, you can't study a lot. So to be engaged and detached from the outcome is excellent. Excellence is behavior. I mean, isn't that what martial arts is about? And that's what meditation is about, that's what, in many ways, sports are about. |

The time to take counsel of your fears is before you make an important battle decision. That's the time to listen to every fear you can imagine! When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead! |

High office teaches decision making, not substance. It consumes intellectual capital; it does not create it. Most high officials leave office with the perceptions and insights with which they entered; they learn how to make decisions but not what decisions to make. |

I'm working harder now than ever before. I couldn't turn down the BBC job because I've never been offered the opportunity of killing three or four people on screen before! |

I never know what's going to happen or what opportunities are going to be given to me. I've found with the opportunities that I've been given have made it possible for me to explore different characters and exciting stories. |

For the past few years, I've been more selective than I have any right to be, but I think that's finally starting to work in my favor. I think I get way too much credit for making what people consider to be smart choices, but it's only because I made a decision to stop worrying about making money. |

Some decisions are consequential and irreversible or nearly irreversible -- one-way doors -- and these decisions must be made methodically, carefully, slowly. ... If you walk through and don't like what you see on the other side, you can't get back to where you were before. We can call these Type 1 decisions. But most decisions aren't like that -- they are changeable, reversible -- they're two-way doors. If you've made a suboptimal Type 2 decision, you don't have to live with the consequences for that long. You can reopen the door and go back through. Type 2 decisions can and should be made quickly by high judgment individuals or small groups.

I like the psyche distinction. How do you know you did everything you needed to do? What did you need to do?
I always feel like my life would be completely different if I had made a few different decisions and I don't know if I'd be happier or not in those other scenarios. The stress for me comes from trying to avoid missing the decisions that would lead to better scenarios. Every day the things I do have opportunity costs.

Could be. I feel like standard offers are 100~200k for that sort of thing and that PhD doesn't get you more money, just better opportunities for specific things.

they dont have to know how the code works, but if their the ones picking the language they should understand how it works because theyre imposing it on people who DO understand it. it would be like if i told you to code a youtube video creator and uploader but I found this REALLY AWESOME software that is VERY flexible and its so AWESOME, its called PHP. Now can you please code a program that works with cmd ffmpeg and automagically uploads videos

This song is about how every decision you make, experience you have, and chemical you ingest gets passed down through your DNA to your children. The decisions you make today will effect your lineage forevermore. Now while this song doesnt directly say this, I know for a fact this is the true meaning/inspiration. I am very aware of what level Kendrick is on mentally and spiritually and knowing this fact about DNA is well within his philosophy.

Turn up for work. Discipline allows creative freedom. No discipline equals no freedom.
Never stop when you are stuck. You may not be able to solve the problem, but turn aside and write something else. Do not stop altogether.
Love what you do.
Be honest with yourself. If you are no good, accept it. If the work you are doing is no good, accept it.
Don’t hold on to poor work. If it was bad when it went in the drawer it will be just as bad when it comes out.

Humanity stands to be profoundly affected by science and technology in the future. We envision the possibility of broadening human potential by overcoming aging, cognitive shortcomings, involuntary suffering, and our confinement to planet Earth.
We believe that humanity?s potential is still mostly unrealized. There are possible scenarios that lead to wonderful and exceedingly worthwhile enhanced human conditions.
We recognize that humanity faces serious risks, especially from the misuse of new technologies. There are possible realistic scenarios that lead to the loss of most, or even all, of what we hold valuable. Some of these scenarios are drastic, others are subtle. Although all progress is change, not all change is progress.

Of course, you can’t stick electrodes on every person watching TV and browsing Facebook. But you don’t need to. The results from experiments on small neuro-focus groups can be used to influence voters who aren’t being sampled themselves. If, for example, biodata reveals that liberal women over 50 are fearful when they see an ad about illegal immigration, campaigns that want to stoke such fear can broadcast that same message to millions of people with similar demographic and social profiles.

My resignation letter I haven't sent yet: llo Ryan,
I regret to inform you my leaving of the company. I am mentally drained to the point where I no longer feel productive here. I have arrived at the conclusion that I cannot work on computers this much in a routine schedule.
I would love to work something out in the future, I think we have done great work together, however I can no longer continue this job. Sitting for 8 hours, 5 days a week, is something I just cannot do, regardless of location.

I had a dream that there were these moths that could fly but didn't have any wings and they would run into things and explode and turn into eggs and larvae. Also there were four people with super powers and one could turn into a shark and stop time, another one could control water and ice. I don't remember the other two.
