doing things

hmm.. how to say it??

do you know what it feels to have many things that you love to do, and you're very good at, but you don't have enough time to do them all? well for me I feel annoyed..

and not just that... there are several things that needs much time learning/practicing/doing to be really good at...

like coding, for example. I really like coding (coding is writing program to create application/websites/services/etc).. but I just cant master them all; web programming, desktop programming, networks, etc.. it would take all the time in the world to understand them all..

so not just time, but the 'amount' of each things that you'd love to do is limiting you to just 'choose' one or few..


Focus at few things..

okay.. now I choose .net and web programming.. and database things... and also client scripting.. because I like them and I'm fairly good at them.. so, will I be satisfied?

answer is no,..

for example: client scripting, ...
client scripting is a small part of web programing (now a big part I guess)
not three days ago I just read JQuery library and until now I really don't have any clues of what's going on there... I don't want to just use JQuery, I decided to 'understand' it.. and guess what; it took more time.

So, like it or not, I have to limit my time on 'learning' JQuery coz I still have other things to do that required parts of my 'time'..

I can focus on learning scripting on all my time, but I wouldn't do that.. by focus on doing only few things, I sacrifice other things.. and I just dont like it that way...


Organize the tasks..

There's once I decide to improve my quality of living.. I decided to stay away from programming things when I'm at home and doing other things that I like..

so at home I only do reading books, watching movie, playing games, doing some social activity, etc..
well, since sometimes they're boring, I add other activities,.. playing musical instrument..

now, look what's happened next.. I play musical instrument, learning digital recording, and gotten into serious musical band and suddenly realize I need more time to be good at it..

My friend told me to quit doing some things I'm not good at or things that a bit pointless and meaningless, just to add time on other things I need to focus at.. but, when you're very good on many things that you really love to do.. you'll find that there is always 'so little time so much to do'...


Prioritize..

Good thing I still have many things I hate to do.. like eating, driving, calling, texting (I hate cellphones),..etc.. prioritize is simple when it comes to such activity.. I can easily sacrifice them..
but when it came to things that I like, would be hard to decide which one should be done..

with normal calculation it's should be simple,.. about 8++ hours for office things, few hours for music, and doing other things for the rest of time...

but of course you cant deny how complicated this life makes us to spend more time on 'waiting' activity.. like traffic jam and queue.. and even cruel with deadlines and emergency office things, more time have to be switched over from other activities..

one thing I really love to do and I'm really good at is SLEEPING,.. how can I prioritize things when I don't really want to wake up before sleeping 8 hours?


Time really is..

lolz.. prioritized organized focused task wont help much on satisfying simple human on doing things he love to do and very good at..

there's always this 'time' that flavors the life we live,.. and more importantly, I guess, the 'time' itself that put any value/meaning/merit on the things we done..

yeah.. that's living a life,... I wonder how it's like being dead...
