Solve your anxiety with mental gymnastics!

Yes, I’m totally serious.  As long as your anxiety is not due to some chemical imbalance in your brain, and is purely a product of stresses in your life, I have some advice for you.  It’s advice I received and have started implementing.

Stream of consciousness blogging, Take 1

I am going to write this blog as much as possible without stopping.  I’m trying to unclog my brain, and let things flow a little bit easier, and sometimes the easiest way to do that is to create only one restriction, the lack of restrictions and the requirement to continue without going back and editing.

Personal Growth

I have seen the future! My future, and it’s glorious.  Better than I had ever thought possible, truly.  And I will, as my favorite starship captain always says, “make it so.”

25 Year Goal – Film

Recently I decided to set a goal for myself to complete in about 25 years, at which point I’ll be 50.  I have no idea what I’ll be doing at that time, but that’s okay.  It’s a goal to work toward.

With my friends Zan and George we will make a film better than the original Star Wars.

2150

In the year 2150 CE I would be 164 years old, except I won’t have made it there.  Despite remarkable advancements in medicine and largely solving the physical degradation associated with aging, I will have died in an accident.

2125

In the year 2125 I will be 139 years old but I will appear to be in my late sixties or early seventies because of advancements in medicine, especially facing the negative impact of aging.  I will have had several successful tumor removals and been treated for heart-disease.  I will have had several joint replacements and a few outdated prostheses to solve my degenerating vision and hearing, but overall I’ll be looking forward to my 140th birthday.

2100

Continued from my last post, 2075, I thought I might follow through with another installment of my vision of the future.

In the year 2100, I will be 113 years old, though I will look about 60 because of medical solutions to many problems faced with aging discovered decades before.

2075

From hover cars to houses on Mars our ideas of the future have in part shaped how we developed it.  Science Fiction authors and futurists must be credited alongside scientists and brilliant minds that tested those waters and brought ideas to fruition.

New Monetization System for Creative Content

This is a rough draft.  I plan to revise it.  Feel free to criticize it in its current form as well.  I want to temper the idea into something worthwhile.

As we move into an age where information can, is, and will always be copied and shared despite the legal rights of its creators, I believe we have a duty to reconsider the way those laws aimed to protect those creators are formulated as well as the system of economics that serves to reward them.

What do I want to do?

Right now I’m pretty happy with my employment setup.  The pay is good, the job is bearable with fun parts as well as irritating parts, as I can only assume most jobs have.  But it is limited to an absolute maximum of five years, two of which I have already filled.  I definitely have another year here before I’m forced to move on to other things, but I’ve been thinking lately about what I might do, and what I might like to do when the day comes for my contract to end.
