What Are You Creating Today?

For a while, forget what are you reading, following or planning

I ask you aloud What Are You Creating Today?

“You wake up in the morning, and lo! your purse is magically filled with twenty-four hours of the unmanufactured tissue of the universe of your life! It is yours. It is the most precious of possessions.”
― Arnold Bennett, in How to Live on 24 Hours a Day

What do you create today? — It doesn’t have to be perfect, useful or efficient; but it has to reflect YOU; it has to be YOU.

You must have read many blog articles this week. You must have read many book last year. But, have you written an article on a subject you don’t know? Have you written a poem? Have you written “Hello World” code in a language you don’t know? Any new recipe you created that you liked?

Power Of Now

Will you wait you whole life waiting to start something?

Are you waiting to write a perfect article sometime next week? Are you building some best quality product that you will ship next year?

It doesn’t work this way. It hasn’t worked in the past and it will never work in the future

Done Is Better Than Perfect

or

Shipped Is Better Than Perfect

Features of that great and perfect product many be your perception, while your customers are waiting for something that they can start using now. So, don’t wait for the Greatness you will bring in; as soon as your product is good and ready to ship. Ship it

…and remember

Good Is The Enemy Of Great

How To Live 24 Hours A Day

You must be saying “ Tell me about it!”, but there is nothing great here that you already don’t know.

Have you ever divided your whole day into 30 minute window/slot and analysed How you are spending your day. Between two adjacent activities how many minutes are lost and you are not even calling these breaks or relax time.

How much spare time do you have? Are you creating something during that spare time or allowing yourself to get distracted or consumed by anything and everything

The chief beauty about the constant supply of time is that you cannot waste it in advance. The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoilt, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your career
