Started up doing this a couple of weeks ago, and even though I am just half-way there, I feel it is definitely worth it. It is so much better to know where to look when you want to remember some nice moments, or when you want to show your friends some places you’ve seen.

Before organizing, since I had so much photos in so many places, I was thinking they are just some files taking space on the hard-drive – copy and look at them today, and forget about them tomorrow.

Now however, I have the feeling that taking a picture will really capture the moment forever, and I will be able to live it again and again, whenever I want to.

I was working to create a new / improved product in order to sell it and of course, gain a fortune. My focus was on the “gain” part, but I figured out eventually that such an approach does not fully enable me to innovate and create truly valuable stuff.

I changed my perspective at creating innovative things. I am forgetting at all the “gain” part, and I am focusing only on giving values to the worldwide.

So far, just the thought of doing this seems to have unlocked my mind – I am having the best ideas so far. I won’t get into more details until my product is done, but I can advice you to give a try at changing your perspective.

After several months (oh my, was it that long) since abandoning this thing, I am trying to stick with it and get it done.

I am highly motivated this time, considering that after my calculations I will be gaining an hour each day, which on the total gets me another 7 hours / week. That means almost another day of work per week, which is a lot.

Today I woke up at 8 am, but it took 20 minutes of convincing myself to get out of bed. I realized that the biggest obstacle in achieving this goal is that tiny voice inside my head that tells me that sleeping another half an hour wouldn’t hurt. Of course listening to it gets me sleeping for another 2 hours. The only solution is not to listen to that voice anymore – that’s the enemy :-)
