One can only lie in bed for so long, playing Solitaire on the PDA and listening to the same melancholy CD over and over and over, before one gets bored.
I suppose that I should refer to these blurbs as inspirational or uplifting or something:
- Allan Newell's Precepts
- Do what you love, love what you do.
- Help others to find a similar state, no matter how different their choices might be.
- Don't worry about how intrinsically smart you are or anyone is.
- Be intellectually tough -- uniformly on everyone
- Be careful about what you commit to do, and then really do it.
- Chicken soup for bloggers:
"I think one of the hardest things to do in the blogosphere is to learn the equivalent of hitting singles day after day, especially when it seems like everyone else in the blogosphere is knocking them over the fence. Face it, no one hits a home run day after day, not even Lileks or Den Beste. The best you can do is make contact, keep the ball in play, advance the runner, keep on keeping on. Yes, a home run drives in a lot of traffic, but since home runs are few and far between for most of us, it's the singles that keep us in the game."
