Laugh at perfection

Cult of Done Manifesto:

  1. There are three states of being. Not knowing, action and completion.
  2. Accept that everything is a draft. It helps to get it done.
  3. There is no editing stage.
  4. Pretending you know what you’re doing is almost the same as knowing what you are doing, so just accept that you know what you’re doing even if you don’t and do it.
  5. Banish procrastination. If you wait more than a week to get an idea done, abandon it.
  6. The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
  7. Once you’re done you can throw it away.
  8. Laugh at perfection. It’s boring and keeps you from being done.
  9. People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right.
  10. Failure counts as done. So do mistakes.
  11. Destruction is a variant of done.
  12. If you have an idea and publish it on the internet, that counts as a ghost of done.
  13. Done is the engine of more.

Voltaire, that goes “The perfect is the enemy of the good.” I couldn’t agree more. One of the biggest obstacles to getting something done well, or done at all, is trying to get it done perfectly.

Disaster as it happed in my apartment on Tuesday evening.

I was working on my computer, when the rain start coming down around 7 Pm on Tuesday June 22, 2010

I have heard something like is raining not only outside but also inside, I am waking around my apartment, trying to find source of this noise, to my surprise... water is dripping and intensifying to the downfall over my couch. In a hurry start moving it away from the leak, but it does not help, as much I am truing to move it to save the couch, water is taking over my apartment. Water from the roof (under scheduled repaired, unprotected from such a occurrence) is coming down to apartment on the 4th floor, then to my floor and goes down to the 3rd floor, where it finally stopped. Quite a damage in my neighbors apartments. I have called 911, and received assistance from Fire Department. Damages in my apartment to be determined.....
