I Am Starting Daily Life Blog - Daily Blog #0

I've decided to start blogging my daily life. Mainly focusing on my academic life and my spritual pursuit. Keep in mind that when I say "spritual" I don't mean it in the exact sense that it's famous for. For me "Spritual pursuit" is synonymous to the pursuit of "mindfulness", not to unlock my soul or some bs like that. Anyway, so the idea behind blogging my daily life is to fulfill my desire of writting (not fiction lol), to record my daily life to reflect upon in future, and most importantly I wanna blog to hold myself responsible for my actions. I am quite a procrastinator, and very unproductive, but with this blog I wish to give myself a sense of accountability, to motivate myself to be more productive throughout the day, so when I write about my day before sleeping, I don't feel any guilt. I've noticed that I do my best to avoid accountability, and this blog is to help me face accountability.

So let's talk about the format. Honestly, there won't be a fix format (atleast not anytime soon). But there will be a few things that I will mention everyday, and they will be :-
1 - I will calculate my daily academical points. I will give myself points for every productive (academic) work. The basis for my point system will be - 1 point for every lecture I watch, 1 point for revising my notes of a complete chapter, 1 point for revising a complete chapter from my textbook, 0.4 marks for every DPP I solve.

2 - I shall summarise my day, mentioning how much of it was productive, how much wasn't. And what went wrong with my day, and how can I improve it the next day, to be more productive.

I also wish to give myself long term goals, like a goal for what I want to achieve in a few weeks.
My first goal that I shall be working towards is to make myself a productivity geek (not really, I'm exaggerating lmao) by the end of my 21st blog. I wish to be productive enough to not have any regrets before I get to bed (regrets of what I did or did not during the day).

And I promise to myself to be very honest in these blogs :)

I was going to start blogging from today but while I was writting this I felt like I should keep this one as an introduction to my blog and start blogging from tomorrow. But I should mention that I was not productive at all today. I did not meditate, I did not study. If I had to give myself academical points, it would be only 1 for today. I wish to improve from tomorrow and everyday onwards.

Ciao

Rethinking Our Place in Space Time

 We, as humans, have evolved the ability to observe and perceive the universe in three dimensions only. Although with our cunning minds and amazing mathematical skills we have started to observe the 4th dimension, which we refer to as time, we are still far from understanding it. At our highest ability, we perceive time as a linear flow—like one dimension but worse—because although we do traverse it forward, we lack the ability to even choose our own speed while traveling in this dimension, unlike the other three dimensions. A unique dimension? Is there something inherently different about the 4th dimension from the other three? Because the other three do show common features and differ only in their directions. So if we can perceive these three so well, why not the fourth? Is the 4th dimension categorically different from them? Or is it a flaw of our brain that limits us from experiencing the full capacity of the 4th dimension? Or is it the way we are raised after birth? What if, ...

The Imperfect Empty Diaries

I wish I wrote something in it. I wish it wasn't so empty. I wish I wasn't so scared of imperfect things. Why should it have mattered if my 7 year old self didn't write the perfect things (whatever that may have been) to write about in that Ben Ten diary my uncle gifted me. He should have just went for it, wrote something in it. Something silly & stupid, something a kid would write, something... Imperfect.. He should not have scrapped the pages out after what he wrote in the diary was deemed (by him alone) as imperfect. I look at my old things, things from past, things from my childhood. It sends me to the land of joy and worriless life. To a time where "tomorrow" didn't matter, only "today" did, or maybe not even that. To a time where doraemon's new episode was the highlight of my day. All those stuff bring joy to my eyes. But. I only wish my countless diaries, that I collected to write (perfect) stuff, weren't inkless, so dry, so void. ...

The Perfect Life for my 6 year-old self

As any other normal child I hated school, and the notion that I needed to study everyday to be successful. I did not enjoy the idea of a stressful life. I was a very god-believing child and always wondered why God decided to put me into this human body? Why couldn't I be a deer in the jungle? My life would have been so amazing, so stress free, just full of joy. And then my mind turned towards the cons of being a deer and realised I could be eaten by a lion any day, and I'd not enjoy constantly living in fear of being eaten. So now I had to think of another animal that has the best life. I decided I wanted to be a lion. Who eats the top species in a food chain? It is lion who everyone fears. I could now enjoy a few days fantasizing about being a lion and living a peaceful life with no stress or fear. But then I saw lions fighting each other on National geographic channel. And also realised they are captured and kept in zoos for people to enjoy viewing them. And I did not want to...
