Doing it the Spanish Way...

And here we are. Day 10 entry. I was actually thinking today in the show man it seems like it's been quite a while since I wrote in my blog? Have I missed a date or something? And sure enough, my trusty GTD system reminds me that today is the big day.

So I'm heading off to Europe for my cousin's wedding in August. So this week's going to be a really hectic week for me with all my work that I want to get done before I head out. I must say, it feels like I've got this intangible deadline when I leave Hong Kong and that if I don't finish all my work, all hell breaks loose in my world. At the same time, I guess it's good incentive as well.

So I've recently started on The DaVinci Method and I must say, had I read this a few years ago, I'd be lost with all the mumbo-jumbo about brainwaves and stuff. This is definitely not a book for a beginner davinci type to use to better get to know him/herself. It's fascinating reading about how there are these so called DaVinci types that stand out from the crowd and as long as they go with their gut feeling and trust there's a reason they're different, they can excel, but if they force themselves to fit in, soon they'll run into a wall and crash emotionally if not physically or spiritually. I also managed to find Da Vinci Decoded at the library today. I remember reading another book by this author called How to think like Leonardo Da Vinci and let me just say that book is freaking awesome! Oh man, it's totally kicked me back into the days when I was so darn fascinated with Leonardo DaVinci! Heck, this blog's subtitle of finding connections is because of him! :)

On a brighter note, my trip to Spain will allow me a lot of reading time hopefully, so I'm planning on scanning the pages of my books and reading them on my laptop one by one, I don't want to lug around books and paper because chances are I'll need to do a heck of a lot of shopping or just carry stuff from different countries back and forth... this is the deal of being Indian, you can't leave a country with your suitcase being underweight, it feels like you didn't make the most of the money you paid for your ticket :P.

Any speaking of making the most of things, I'm off to bed to make the most of the next few hours, I need my Delta wave conciousness combined with my Growth Hormone excretions alongside my REM sleep and well, most importantly -- rest. Yes, I realize I've been reading too much into the art of "rest" :P But heck, it makes me know I'm resting correctly at least!

Da vinci is super cool.. hes a genius.. renaissance man.!! the way he thinks.. duno how he can do that like when he was looking at the sun he asked "how far away are we?" or loooking at a bird "how do they fly?" Normal ppl just look up at the sky and think, oh its pretty or sth like that. i guess he questions everything and back at that time there were manyt hings unknown to man. lol and then theres his sayng of how art is science. lol to some degree i agree because in both u have to ask questions and have a great curiosity to look at the things around u from different angles and distances.

Ahaha yea, it's definitely his curiosity that got him places :) It makes me question everything now as well :) I love it!
I guess that's also a creativity technique to just question something till it runs dry.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never imagined that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Nowadays, I feel good, I started take up real money.
It's all about how to select a proper partner who utilizes your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the income with me.

You can ask, if there are such firms? I have to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
