The Source Of My ideas

I’m not that bright, or that rich. I don’t have the privilege to such righteous position in society, nor I have the access to all the money and all the link to all important people. I don’t have those, because I’m just like you guys. I’m just a simple being, that simply living and thinking. But sometimes, I have this tendency to just outright overthink all the available things that appear in my sight or just walks across my mind.

Seriously guys, overthink (for me at least) is either a grace or a curse for me, because I could analyse something and around 80% I would get the answer from the question that I’ve been asked, OR…. I’m just ended up wasting my sleep time and wake up in such a horrible state of mind and wellbeing. And to be honest, I like it this way, eventhough sometimes I have this sort of frustration that enters my mind whenever I failed to understand the condition, well, sort of.

The sources of my ideas, hmmmm. I got my ideas from many ways of sort, such as when I’m alone, or when I’m feeling off in a crowd, or as simple as taking shit in the toilet. I don’t know, my mind just works in a weird way. I don’t really get it either. But I do notices one thing; whenever there is a possibility for quietness, my mind will take control, and this is usually where things get out of control. My mind just gets so easily slipped from my path of thoughts, it’s starting to develop the tendency to have a negative thoughts about myself (and I’m still struggle about it), and most of the times I ended up feeling depressed instead of continue to deal with my “creativity” and all sorts of things. But I’m here to talk about my process of getting ideas, not complaining about my health.

Okay, usually I ended up in a spiralling movement of negative thoughts, but 50% I have the chance to actually growing my ideas out, okay?? So hear me out, stay with me. Usually, I’m just going to relax my body, making them feel nice and comfy, and maybe tune up some “thought music”, and let the mind do their job. Whenever they are doing their job of creating and thinking, I will just sit there, nice and comfy, while preparing to write or draw any ideas that comes out of my mind. This is the key;

“to record in all ways, any ideas that comes out of my mind”

Because whenever I don’t record those ideas, they ended up just wasted and 80% of the times, I just forget those ideas. I actually still feel very guilty for dumping all of my ideas for writing a novel, just because I felt that I can’t write or something is just distracting me from writing those ideas. So, from that moment, I’ve learned to record my ideas, but only for those critical and important ideas (that might be revolutionize for mankind probably), such as, ideas about understanding this realm, ideas about understanding people in person (which is usually get so complicated, we’ll get into that later on), or even as simple as understanding myself (which I find more difficult to do).

But there’s also the time to stop right?? Yes, there is time to stop, because your brain doesn’t work the same way as Google Server, so it’s a good way to rest yourself, take a time, before you started to think again. For me, usually I’ll stop whenever I feel like, bored, or simply tired from using my mind with all focus and sharp edge. And yes, I easily get bored from thinking (weird right?)

In all ways, many ways, I propose this idea about recording the ideas, so that later on you might get to use it and worked with it. For me, this idea worked very well, and I suppose it could work for you too.

Questioning Why

  Since we were in school, we always taught to questions the big 6, which is what, where, when, who, why, and how. And we all know that “what“ is used to questioning a certain matter, just a scratch on the surface without digging deep into it, “when” is used to questioning the exact time of a certain event is happening, ”where” is used to questioning the place, a certain event take in to, “who” is used to questioning the subject who involved in a certain event, “why” is used to questioning the reason of a certain event happened, and lastly, “how” is used to questioning the process of an event that happen, and okay, you guys got the big picture of this whole ideas about question right? Now for me, I feel more intrigued by the “why”, and I think, the “why” itself, already took a decent amount of part in my process of uncovering ideas and creating something out of nowhere. You see, I’m a somewhat, weird kid, in a way. I’ve always curious and ended up fascinated with the works of sur...

The Uncertainty Theory

Werner Heisenbergh has been known for his Uncertainty Principal that contribute much to a quantum physics subject. It was said that one can’t measure the exact position of a particle when the velocity of a particle is known, vice versa. This theory, at first seems so mind boggling and unfamiliar to us, but bear with me. It’s actually pretty close to a common sense, of which an exact position of something cannot be known if the velocity is known, and the exact amount of velocity is unknown if the exact position is known. Pretty common sense right?? Anyway, that’s just my bullshit. Nobody with a regular experience and hands-down no interest in physics will ever understand that theory, scientist and physics expert excluded. And, we go to my point. As in common sense of people who live longer than 15-20 years, life is unpredictable. Yes that is true. And very random as well, also true. But why?? Is it because the nature of the universe ? Or is it just us? Or is it something else that we ...
