"I have no time", true or false?
"i have no time", this happens to be a common phrase among us lately. it can be especially heard among children when you ask them to tidy up their rooms or to arrange the toys. however, this is also a phrase that is heard quite commonly among adults as well. giving excuses that they have no time when it comes to helping their kids with homework or no time to finish an assignment.
"i have no time" can be heard all around us. however it is amazingly ironic that when the reward is great, the "i have no time" quickly turns into "yes, i will do so immediately". this can yet again be seen with children when afford something in return if they clean up their rooms, or with adults when a that job can get a reward or when an assignment could get extra credit.
to confirm with ourselves whether or not we really do have time, take this as an example:
one day, Bill Gates personally gives an announcement that he is looking for someone who is around ( your age here ) to help him work. that person requires qualifications such as ( your qualifications here). the weekly pay check is 100,000 after taxes including lots of bonuses and services ( dental, etc. etc.. ) . anybody who is interested must register within 24 hours.
if this amazing thing happens, you would somehow magically have 24 hours a day to work with guy, despite having a tight schedule.
like it or not, we all have time. however, people who still say that they do not have time are only people who are trapped in an illusion. what they really do not have is time management. their schedules are a mess and most of them probably don't have a schedule in the first place. people who say they do not have time are people who are merely too lazy to help themselves by managing their time properly.
we commonly here the term "time is gold" or "time is money". so if time is money, can i trade some time for some money? and if time is money, can i buy some time with money?
major conclusion, we should manage our time wisely, and we will that there is much spare time.
minor conclusion, the term "time is money" is a metaphor

Resistance, good or bad?
there are many ways to describe resistance. the most common of which is that of something that is against you. the best example any parent can think of is of course their children not wanting to go to school and so on..
although many may regard resistance as a bad thing, should we not consider it something which is good and beneficial? since we all do know that without resistance, we would probably not be able to move. many of us fail to see that resistance can come in good and bad forms. most of us just want to rid of it when we fall off a bicycle or have an accident basically because accidents are based around resistance itself. we sometimes tell ourselves that if only resistance were to not exist, then the world can be rid of all forms of accidents and so on. but we fail to realise that during that time, resistance is the one and only thing that allows life to continue in motion.
there is no good or bad in resistance. it is merely how we use it that defines its uses. we consider it useful when used to light a match. but we consider it a bother when it wears out the bottom of our shoes. but we have to consider this: without resistance, we would not have moved an inch.

Brains, are we using it?
some say we use only about 10% of our brain. but here's a simple question to help you confirm that understanding. if you only use 10% of your brain, then if i scoop the rest of the 90% of your brain out, you won't die? that being said, we use 100% of our brains.
the brain is an amazing thing. calculating vast amounts of information each second to allow us to touch, feel, balance, think, smell, imagine, see, and even read at the same time! this merely proves that our brains are very well made. however, it is amazing that there still people in the world that simply refuse to use their heads! and I'm not talking about retards. when a person sleeps, a lesser amount of processing occurs in our brains. but for the people who are lazy to use their heads, they simply just "sleep" all the time. by using the minimal amount of brains that a person potentially have, these people merely do whatever that is convenient. wake up, breakfast, bath, work, dinner, bath, shit, sleep, and so on.. they lack the will to know more and to discover new things. following a ready made cycle they simply just follow it without question. never questioning why nor attempt to break the cycle.
putting the first two paragraphs of meaningless words aside, it can be concluded that our brains are very powerful. needless to say, we should use more of it. (so this means paper and pen instead of a calculator)

Clones, the concept
clones. some think of it as repeating life. but here is the question, if you were cloned, will you be living life again? if you surf the net to get the definition of clone, you will get answers that revolve around one concept, identical genes. genes are mere genetic structures that determine your physical looks and behaviour. however, genes do not contain any traces of memory. in other words, memories cannot be cloned.
so are we living life again if we are cloned? lets not forget that a clone refers to identical genes. although we are capable of making a clone, we must understand that it is no different than having an identical twin. if we make a clone of ourselves, we are merely making a twin of ourselves. the only same things is that it will have similar characteristics and physical properties. memories gained from a clone can be regarded as its own life, as a twin.
so if we ask ourselves whether or not we are living life again if we are cloned, i would say no. but, we are making another imprint of ourselves in the world. since the clone will grow to look exactly like ourselves, it can be said that we are literally leaving our mark on the earth.

Hi, Ho, it's my intro. . .
first of all, the layout.. basically got the idea from Maddox.. the monitor is like a light bulb after all.
second, tittle. being a human being, we develop very advance brains that we use very little. however it is considered to be thinking to much when you have a headache. why? basically the human mind calculates so much information when they panic that they just don't know what to do. that being said, we should think more. what i write is just a tiny piece of what we should be knowing. what i write is merely things that i over think too much. yet what i think is also what everyone once thought but found no meaning in the particular thought until it has occurred to themselves. third, putting everything aside, my intro of the reason of this blog ends here. . .
stop scrolling..
i mean it..
ok, this is really the end.
