With limited will/energy there's a limited number of things you can apply it too at a time.
What sucks is forgetting how much you dislike someone and then remembering. What sucks even more is doing it continuously.
When your desire to do everything causes you to end up doing nothing then you must choose one thing and stick with it, even when the desire for it is fleeting, until you accomplish something.
Just because it's human nature now doesn't mean it will be human nature later.
Don't put the result of work before the work since you will have no result of work without the work coming first.
Focus first on attaining the ability to create masterpieces then focus on creating masterpieces.
Frustration can quickly replace enthusiasm if one tries to create something they do not have the ability to create.
When you have mastered a thing (I guess when you can leave for a time and then come back to it and still possess your mastery of it) leave it and go attempt to master another thing.
There comes a time when you have to stop making the same mistakes- and start making new ones! (Preferably just stop making the same mistakes.)
So many desires, so little will.
When there is desire there is discipline and perhaps, when there is discipline desire can be sustained and given time to fully reignite.
If our language lacks the vocabulary necessary to express certain thoughts (and we can't manage to create the necessary vocabulary) we may stop thinking those thoughts. If the vocabulary is there or we can manage to create it then the thoughts can be expressed and new thoughts may follow as a consequence and so intelligence can grow. So language may inhibit or facillitate thought and intelligence.
I don't like exaggeration, to my benefit and expecially to my detriment.
"One thing at a time." does not mean one thing for all of your time.
The more phonemes a language has the more short words the language can have.
If you can't stop talking outloud to yourself create a new language that only you will know and talk outloud to yourself in it so that know one will understand you.
