Composing poetry

Poetry has rhythm like music. If I have a certain rhythmic phrase on my mind, it's very easy to add words to it.

Usually, a poem begins with a beautiful first line. The other lines come naturally once the first one has been caught.

How to learn a new language

1. Set a clear, motivating goal
2. Learn it for fun, every day
3. Watch and read everything I can in that language (random)
4. Dive into the culture
5. Write and speak the language, even to myself
6. Learn songs in the language
7. Watch soaps
8. Read articles and interesting books

Perfectly fitting shoes

Even perfectly fitting shoes rub sore at first. What about unfitting ones?


Even perfectly matching people have disagreements at first. What about mismatching ones?

Talent

Talent = passion + skill + practice

But passion comes first.

Learning excellence

1. Watch a master do it
2. Imitate + learn the skills
3. Apply the skills to your own ideas

Building my world pt 1 - cleaning up the mess

Things:

- clothes I don't wear
- food supplies I'll never use
- books I won't read/reread
- stationery I don't like/won't use
- things that have lost their sentimental value
- any other old, unused things

Emotions/Thoughts:

- old offenses

- old infatuations

- memories of unpleasant incidents (except the learnt lessons)

- worries about the future

- worries about other people's opinions of me

No limitations

Limitations exist only in my brain. All I have to do is get rid of the illusion I can't do this. Some illusions are more persistent than other, but then again I can't do everything without losing my unique nature.

1. Identify my dream.
2. Get rid of the illusion hindering its achievement:
    - Invent my law of nature
    - Allow myself to want this particular thing
    - Find examples of other people

Lucky charms and the power of prayer

I always get what I believe I'll get. Sometimes, when the pressure's too high, I get the opposite. Hence:

1. Always assume what I want it to be.

2. Let it go, don't insist on it. The Universe will do the rest.
