You Can't Hide With a Pen



Writing is not hiding. It's never safe. Even writing anonymously. At these times, anonymity is an illusion. You can choose to come up and attack one person or idea face to face and then vanish away safely amidst the confusion. Then defend by denying or insisting that you’ve been misunderstood or misquoted. Or just simply don’t show up again. But once you wrote about something, and published it, you present yourself openly and almost permanently for criticism and offense. And you have to live with it. Not that death would end it.

Motivational Push or Pull?

Motivation is always a good start in accomplishing something. While you're at it, you must need to work on practicing self motivation. Motivation is like a spark, powerful at the beginning but fades quickly afterwards. Self motivation is what lasts. The push comes from within. Unlike in initial motivation, it always comes from the outside. 

Though a problem about being self motivated is when some people can't recognize a person who has it. Others think that every person needs a motivation from them. A self motivated person needed a push the least and it gets annoying when done repeatedly. That person already knows what he's doing and why he's doing it. He's self motivated. He'll move towards his chosen direction. A push from the outside might actually do more harm than good. His path might get derailed. So be careful in motivating others. Not everyone needs it.Especially if you're pushing too hard.

Analyzing Over and Under

Over-analyzing towards a decision usually wastes precious time that could have been used for action. On the other hand, under-analyzing often results to a faulty conclusion. Enough analysis though is difficult to measure. Understanding the contrasting sides of the issue, identifying the risks that come with each option and the willingness to take responsibility of the result are basically what you need to make a sound decision.
