daily inventory
posted: Fri, Jul 30, 2004 04:47:03 AM

 

i usually do my inventory at night but this morning i feel a bit out of sorts and disconnected so....
.... i probably need to a quick spot inventory about my feelings before i start dealing with the world.
am i truly grateful to be sucking air this morning -- Yes
do i believe i have power to fix something -- Yes specifically the computer filled with self-replicating crapware -- and here is the rub i have been fighting this beast for the past day and it does not seem to get better -- i need to do some further resaerch and ask for help ---
and that is exactly the problem
Somewhere in my recent experience i have gotten the notion that maybe i know something computers
and this is exactly the problem, i do know a thing or two about the repair of PCs but there are volumes of things that i do not have a clue about and you know that is alright. i can do the research find the tools and reapply myself to the problem at hand. i know that i can succeed if i seek the answers and take the suggestion of those who have more experience with these problems.
sort of like the program -- i all have to admit that i do not know today, ask for help and follow a few suggestions and i can succeed at this too.
and you know that i am already feeling better. i identified a feeling, explored what i knew about it, shared it and discovered a path towards resolution.
how 'bout that, inventories work!

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

THE TAO TEH KING, OR THE TAO AND ITS CHARACTERISTICS
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 1

2) In loving the people and ruling the state, cannot he proceed without
any (purpose of) action? In the opening and shutting of his gates
of heaven, cannot he do so as a female bird? While his intelligence
reaches in every direction, cannot he (appear to) be without knowledge?
