The Regular Day

This one may come out a little weird. Maybe just a passing thought, maybe on to something grand.      What I am reaching for is a systematic approach to managing living. Bare with me, this is just a passing thought and I am not really sure where I am going with it. The puzzle I have in front of me is this, can a systematic problem solving technique be defined that will help a person understand life? I used to define myself as a computer programmer, pipe dream at best but it seems rational to start with those terms. Programs in the design phase should be broken into pieces. Input - Process - Output. Input: In this case input will be what a person senses, in the case of a human being input would be how an individual experiences reality. Of course most we are limited to what we pay attention to and what our senses take in, most of this input is automatically stored but largely ignored. Who knows what we really know about reality? Process: Of the inputs that are taken in hu...

 Trying to focus things and get back on track.   How to get started?      Finding myself becoming dissatisfied with my progress. The goal of the regular day was intended to give me the ability to contribute to community, work, family, and self.  Self: My desire is to have a positive impact on myself by structing what I have called the regular day.       By working toward the dream of a regular days, life will become clear and rewarding. Smoothing over the rough edges and not expecting more out of myself than is reasonable given those talents that were gifted to me or earned,  will allow me to enjoy those rare and wonderful happy moments, and warn me when things are heading in a bad direction. If I can measure my regular days and work toward them progress will be apparent.  Family:  My desire is to have a positive impact on my family by structing what I have called the regular day. ## You Hello Copilot, I hope you are...

  What happens when the instrument does not need a musician? Like the player piano only able to write it's own song. I would like to tell you about something that is on my mind. This question of what do you want is a lot more complex than you think. You could say I just want a million dollars, but then you find that at some point in you life you had a million dollars, what did you do with it. Ok so you want a million dollars right now. The problem is if that happens the whole world will try to take it from you after all who doesn't want a million dollars more so if they do not think you deserve it. There is a certain person that often askes me what do you want, I tell this person I want world peace, my piece of the world. Fits my twisted since of humor, but has more truth in it than you know. Looking this over and really giving appropriate thought, this odd little question what do you want is a bit harder to answer than you would think. Those that ask will receive, you may not ...

  Good day. As I drag myself out out bed and fumble around to make a pot of coffee on a Monday morning I realize that it is my habit to start trying to solve the problems that I expect to encounter during the week. Maybe this is not the best strategy. Allowing the pressures of the week to flood in on my in that waking state will never make any real progress on problems. Thinking of how I spend my time is really bothering me this morning. Things for me are out of balance right now. My wife encourages me to be where and when I am. I see signs all around me that I have not been listening to her again. I am struggling to pay attention to what I need to do at home when I need to do it. Then rushing around to catch up if only I had done those things at a more appropriate time things would run more smoothly. A strict schedule is a prison for me, but no schedule is worse. Without a good schedule you can only react to what is in your way. Instead of a steady pace I find myself up against in...
