things to learn, day 1

it's your duty to find time to think and reflect in conditions that you know you can think well and reflect well in. leaving it to conditions when you're obviously not going to be able to think well or reflect well is so obviously stupid, it's, well, stupid.

you can't always predict what is going to happen, so instead of worrying about what might happen you might as well convince yourself on how to be, outside events notwithstanding.

that was the right thing to do.

the way it was done was clearly not right in so many ways.

now with peace and a little medication, it seems to me that I set it up so that the right thing was not, in the grand scheme, the (or even "a") smart thing.

how long until i learn whether it was a smart thing or a truly stupid thing?
