Wow depends more on the person judging for the wow factor. If the person is not in the mood it won’t be wow.
So instead of looking for wow, it’s always better to search for the right parameters, search for quality metrics, and search for the facts, as that will be fair to the other person or thing being judged.
Off-course someone can still want wow! But that might be wow only for the person not for others.
You can deliberately structure your team the way you want your code to look like.
Geographically distributed teams will tend toward more modular distributed software.
Most importantly – Development teams that include product users will produce software that clearly reflects their involvement making it more relevant to the users. Whereas teams that don’t bother will reflect that in the product with not much relevancy to the users.
Many a time it feels like “I am not sure what to do” it can be either for our goal, our future, or our success.
It’s like we are stuck in a place and can’t get out of it.
What helps in this case?
Habits help most in this case, as sometimes you don’t know where you are going but good habits ensure that you are taking the right steps.
Who helps in this case?
Family and friends help in this case by still believing in you, and that you will reach even if it takes time.
And both help us whenever and wherever required.
So let’s inculcate good habits and spend time with family & friends. As these are the two best investments in our life.
Writing becomes your second brain.
Talking to others about ideas becomes your second brain.
Sleep can be your extend your brain.
Exercise increases your brain power.
Reading increases your brain.
Meditation extends your brain.
In general, we know that our mind drives our body. If your body is in pain while running, your mind will still force it to run as it benefits us. It’s called willpower.
Similarly, our body can also drive our mind, specifically true with habits, it’s a sequence that if you follow triggers the same pattern in your mind and ensures a set of actions.
Hence it’s a good idea to allow the body to do a pattern of actions and our mind also will come into action.
The current blog I am writing is with body force, it’s late at the night, and my mind was telling me to skip the writing today. But when I sat down in my usual chair with my laptop/editor and started typing, the words started flowing in.
So it helps if the body follows a pattern along with the corresponding environment to force the mind to start working.
Yoga, sports, and physical exercises are other ways to force the mind to follow the body.
I am sure
With more knowledge,
With more experience,
With more mistakes.
We learn to expect the unexpected, and better still can make the positive unexpected happen for us.
In this new year, let’s add a new way to expect the unexpected;
Learn from others’ knowledge,
Learn from others’ experiences,
Learn from others’ mistakes.
Imagine how powerful it will be. All we need to do is help others in their un-expectations and get help in return.
This can be the most powerful resolution this year!
Happy new year to you and may all your expectations come true.
Let’s say you are on an outing and carry a small water bottle with very little water. As you travel and keep the bottle with you slowly in the next one or two hours the bottle starts looking like a burden, now let another 2 hours pass, and the bottle will seem like a nuisance and you will most likely drink the water and throw the water bottle away.
Just imagine if a small and helpful water bottle can cause mental tiredness, how much a problem hovering in your mind will tire you.
So don’t keep problems in your mind it will get bigger. It will fester in your mind. Either solve it or ignore it, if can’t ignore it, learn how to unlearn things for ignorance.
All of us have similar goals and ideas whether we are successful or unsuccessful.
It’s the path to the goal,
the hard work,
the dare,
the determination,
And, the idea we choose to execute.
That makes the difference.
We all agree that our mind is the most critical resource for us to grow. Our mind uses almost the same resource whether we are “Taking actions” for an activity where the mind coordinates with the body, or “Talking” about the activity where we explain it to others.
This brings out an interesting case:
So decide which one to use and when? The old adage “talk less, act more” indeed gives us a clue.
Rule of Abstraction: When you are about to implement something for the third time it’s a good rule of thumb to create an abstraction for it. Even at the service level.
