chiefrubberduck··on The quiet art of attention
if you lost your wealth, you have lost nothing

if you lost your health, you have lost something

if you lost your peace, you have lost everything

chiefrubberduck··on Ask HN: What's the "best" book you've ever read?
autobiography of a yogi

chiefrubberduck··on Signs It's Time to Quit Your Job (2021)
you have less patience and become irritated easily which blends into personal life too

you do not feel like helping any team members

you feel tenseness around your heart area whenever something related to work is on your mind

chiefrubberduck··on Ask HN: What do you do when you're stuck in a job and overworked?
set a date in the future when you are going to quit

once a date is set there is sense of relief and looking forward to that date

then go within to find what it is that gives you energy as you envision what that would look like

once you find that energy or inspiration start to look for jobs in that area immediately

do the minimal at your current job as you do not owe anything beyond what they had originally hired you to do

do enjoy zooming out of the current content or experience you are currently experiencing and see the context of it all :)

chiefrubberduck··on The Art of Finishing
i'm reminded by this chapter of the tao te ching:

When people see some things as beautiful,

other things become ugly.

When people see some things as good,

other things become bad.

Being and non-being create each other.

Difficult and easy support each other.

Long and short define each other.

High and low depend on each other.

Before and after follow each other.

Therefore the Master

acts without doing anything

and teaches without saying anything.

Things arise and she lets them come;

things disappear and she lets them go.

She has but doesn't possess,

acts but doesn't expect.

When her work is done, she forgets it.

That is why it lasts forever.

chiefrubberduck··on Is My Blue Your Blue?

Your boundary is at hue 177, bluer than 75% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.
