The best way is always to stop when you are going good and when you know what will happen next. If you do that every day … you will never be stuck. Always stop while you are going good and don’t think about it or worry about it until you start to write the next day. That way your subconscious will work on it all the time. But if you think about it consciously or worry about it you will kill it and your brain will be tired before you start.

The healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is it's last day on Earth. But I think that's a luxury, not a curse. To know you're close to the end is a kind of freedom. Good time to take... inventory. Outgunned. Outnumbered. Out of our minds on a suicide mission, but the sands and rocks here stained with thousands of years of warfare... they will remember us for this. Because out of all our vast array of nightmares, this is the one we choose for ourselves. We go forward like a breath exhaled from the Earth. With vigor in our hearts and one goal in sight: We will kill him.

Just yesterday, I was bored and was just going through some tweets on my twitter timeline and I came across a tweet by Hacker Zed Shaw and I visited his website hoping to stumble upon something interesting, I was just going through archives and found this gem, The Master, The Expert, The Programmer and submitted to Hacker News hoping to read some existing comments on the essay. To my disappointment, it wasn't submitted to Hacker News [1] and there weren't any comments to learn from. The comments on Hacker News are sometimes more interesting than the post they are commenting on, so I was hoping to understand the depth of Zed's post. Once submitted comments start pouring in and some of them were just mind-blowing and complemented Zed's post beautifully. I guess one of the users of Hacker News submitted the post to proggit too (unless he was stumbling upon the Zed's site at the same time too) but the comments weren't as insightful as Hacker News comments. This post is actually about nothing but my realization of beauty of Internet, which is contributing and learning from others as they contribute. Zed also talks about this on his new blogpost . So all in all, my boredom led me to find invaluable information from Zed's post, comments from Hacker News and all in all it made me slightly smarter than I was, day before yesterday. Thanks Internet, Thanks Zed, Thanks Hacker News.
[1] The blogpost was actually submitted 3 years back to Hacker News but it didn't get as many comments as it deserved.Comments [2]
Google claims that this service is better because it has no ads or redirection. But you have to remember they are also the largest advertising and redirection company on the Internet. To think that Google’s DNS service is for the benefit of the Internet would be naive.

Kept typing quit when it said 'type :quit to exit', who knew that colon was to be included too.

Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it all. Any day we wish;
we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we
wish; we can start a new activity. Any day we wish; we can start the process of
life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year.
We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of
having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are.
We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over
truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we
curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely
observed, "The fault is not in the stars, but in ourselves." We created our
circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability and the responsibility
to make better choices beginning today. Those who are in search of the good life
do not need more answers or more time to think things over to reach better
conclusions. They need the truth. They need the whole truth. And they need
nothing but the truth.
We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the
wrong path. We must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest
difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very choices
that will bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives.
And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for someone seeking and
needing to make changes in their life - If you don't like how things are, change it!
You're not a tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area in your life -
and it all begins with your very own power of choice.
