Oh, this University project is keeping me quite busy these days. But I am definitely going deep with the entire Getting-Organized thing. It is crystal-clear to me that if I am gonna do everything that I love - I need to free my mind from things which can be automated and of course, become more Mindful in the process.
Regarding the Memory Technique, I am experimenting with the Memory Palace/Journey Method which basically involves making use of the spatial memory to make links to information that is being memorized. I pick up a paragraph and then I focus on the Keywords which help me remember the gist of the sentence and then as the next sentence comes up I make a turn in the MP and then repeat the same process with the next sentence. Yes, I do find it all to be a bit slippery still, but I think that's only because I am learning what kind of Images stick in my mind and what level of detail do I need to keep them there.
I am using various visual symbols to help me remember the Tense of the sentence and, as I make progress with the Grammar portion of Languages - I'll make more of these glyphs.
I'll put up an example of these Memory Palaces in upcoming posts;P
Don't you want to experience being free from the nagging reminders of all the things that need to be taken care of?
Being Organized, for me, is about being Free from thoughts which need not be thought again. Rather, I would focus with all my Concentration and Creativity on things which really matter and solve the problems that I come across.

As soon as I have a bit of time on my hands I'll start the two blogs Superhomadi is gonna contain all the progress log regarding the things I am trying as per the Getting Things Done phase as well as the Memory Palace experimentation. The other blog, which is En Route to Fluency is gonna have posts in Japanese, Finnish and Hebrew - These three are the ones which are on my Active-Learning list till December this year.
Regarding Nutro-Marka - I have no idea what to do with the blog that I so hopefully created. Perhaps some idea still is there, waiting to bounce up when I am ready;P

As Niharika reminds me, there is another blog that I use, to express my progress and try to make sense of all the experiments I keep playing with is Sagematics . It's my expression and my views on the way "Hard Science" are treated by our Education systems - they need not be like a death sentence. They are meant to be quintessentially human - just like languages.
The way, I see these two projects is that " If Languages are my charm, then Programming is my Magic Wand"

You forgot about the sage mathematics one :p
ReplyDeleteOh!
ReplyDeleteActually, Sagematics is a different game altogether. The Talking Apes, Superhomadi and En Route to Fluency ( even Nutro-Marka ) are natural siblings.
One thing, I have realized - "You think programming is tough - pff - try learning languages";P
