Producing an iPhone might be a difficult process, and the factory that produces it always uses the same process of production, thus it does not have to always reconsider this system of production. Yes, it is something that is set up after a lot of regulations made in the past, but after a period of time, it became a process that is regularly used. The same process is used and the same output is produced. It is as simple as that, but we fail to implement it into our own lives. Continue reading

Bad behaviors are bugs that need to be addressed and need attention

Computer software cannot be imagined without having any bug at all, whether they are developed by Google, Microsoft or an unknown programmer who is programming in his garage. However this reality does not stop these companies to constantly engage into improving their products, so that there are less bugs into them than before.

Even though I don’t usually get more than 10-20 emails per day, I sometimes waste too much time by just checking it, because I simply begin to read what it is on it and there is a Facebook notification for a private message that I get and I go there to reply, and I end up spending a lot of minutes by simply scrolling down the page and not doing anything entertaining and productive.

In fact, the part-time job that I do is depended on using email, but I have already opened another email account to use it only as an Outbox and I do not show it to others, because I only want to send emails from it, which I learned from the New York Times best-selling author, Tim Ferriss (more on this later). So,  when I said I didn’t open my email today, I meant my main email that I use for getting and sending messages.
