I don't want to steal Stephen King's words. I'll just rephrase them here: writing lets you choose how many doors there are, which ones you'll open and what's behind every door. On the contrary; Sid Meier (Civilization V) computer game determines the number of doors, what's behind each door and the correct order of events that leads to victory. This is Newtons Third Law, for every action there is a reaction, equal in magnitude opposite in direction. I'm putting-up Sid Mier against Stephen King.
Life itself is defined with these opposing forces. Nine months of properly ordered chemical reactions that results in a life. Then, undetermined quantities of time in ultimate freedom expressed in music, programming, writing and business hustling . Let's reflect on this thought for a second and how it's applicable to our work and life today. To help me to do this, I'm going to imagine the facial expression of a prophet after handing him an iPhone? Take this idea and explore it however your imagination desires.
Explain this to me, how can a human brain adapt to learn how to play the piano at the age of 7, however the same human brain thousands of years ago - not too much different brains cells - was hardly capable of herding cats and goats. Therefor, we have all been blessed with the ultimate intelligence tool, able to hit the ground running at any moment of time in history. Is that what they call the grand weaver? The source of ultimate intelligence? and what is the full potential of our brains. If 1000 years ago it was herding goats, and today it's developing applications, how about 1000 years from now. What are our brains capable of handling?
Life is limitless in possibilities after you complete an organized phase. You can make endless programs after you learn C++. You can make endless music after you figure out the keys. You can read any book after you learned the alphabets. You can file as many tax forms that your heart desires after you get your training. How will we affect an organized process so that it opens new endless possibilities? You can achieve immortality with your work.
