Fundamental Assumptions

  1. I believe there is hierarchy in which importance is given to areas of my life. There can be some areas equally important and some more than other.
  2. That hierarchy I believe takes fundamental base as human at center/me and originates from human needs. If basic needs are not full filled, you don't exist to make any effect on world.
  3. There is fundamental belief that, Non-existent thing can't affect existent things.
  4. Goal is to optimize our life to exist for longer and enjoy whatever world has to offer.

Evaluating your interests

  • who you are currently?

    • I'm son to my parents, brother to my sibling. A friend to few. And unknown relation to others.
    • To me, I'm curious and ambitious person who tries to do everything, plans for it ends up doing obvious and very little of what I planned due to overwhelming nature of information and my curiosity to know it all. What would I do with that? Make Ideal decisions, in Ideal world. Acquiring knowledge about anything is my nature. Sometimes I get blinded by hormones, resulting in zero/low motivation and fuel for laziness and procrastination. I always feel I need to know more to make a decision. Maybe a reason for my procrastination. I give a task unbounded time.
