Things change fast, you need to upgrade systems and even ways of doing things. Your thoughts need to be upgraded once in a while and it’s requested a good flexibility. I’m scared of how fast things are going, and without a fast community that supports my constant learning I’m lost and old.
some ways to stay updated without getting too bored or scared:
- serendipity (read: random -> you deepen the search for things that you like)
- news (read: RSS feeds of cool people)
- social network (read: stay close to open people)
- search engine (read: hope to understand how it’s working and how to use it)
there are many studies on the understanding and adoption convenience for new technologies and ways of thinking. There is many people that sells old things and old ways of doing things.
Sometimes i just feel the need to stay in my silent hole to develop my point of view on the things that i’ll be working on. Those hole-times are extremely unproductive and theoretical. I play, I decorate, I listen to music, I browse and read and lose time on the amazing mass of things on the internet. Then i need to express what i learned, maybe talking, sometimes teaching. The outside communication of internal believings fixes the cool things and lets me understand the problems before i have to experience them on the field. That’s because people’s way of understanding things it’s not linear, it’s sense based. And sense needs to have solid basis.
