On My Most Influential Year in School.

Campus and Snow

I have milked this one to death. Honestly, I have written so much about this one life changing moment in my life that if I write anything more about it the meaning will start to recede. Just to know what I am referencing it is when my girlfriend broke up with me during freshman year of college. It caused the largest overall change to myself and my personality. In essence it thrust me into adulthood. You will find PLENTY of posts about this either directly or tangentially. I do encourage you to check them out.

On Personal Faults.

I would say that my biggest fault is I put way too much on my plate. I want to do all these super awesome things, but time is finite. I am trying to do a better job of time management. I am trying to go from multi-tasking on 50 projects to single-tasking and finishing projects in a timely manner as well as prioritize so the super important thing don’t get skipped. To finish off this I want to share my productivity tools with you.

Remember the Milk – Best todo list on the web.

Google Calendar – Best calendar for personal as well as collaborative use.

Virtual Post-Its – Need to make a quick note, these are perfect. Built into Macs (Widgets) and Windows 7 (Stickies).

Whiteboards – Nothing beats a good whiteboard. Quick, easy, and highly visible.

On Sought-after Superpowers.

This is probably way too obvious to even be interesting if you know me, but here goes. If given the choice I would have to go with super intelligence. My alter-ego, Tony Stark aka Iron Man, is arguably the smartest person on Earth. (Evidenced by conversations and a chess game had with Reed Richards in the Illuminati or was it The Invincible Iron Man) Either way with my big ol’ brain I would be able to solve just about any problem. Not only that but I would be thinking up and creating all the coolest and most useful things. That and progressing the human race. Totally, intelligence. Who needs flying or laser beams when you can just make a suit that enables you to fly and has repulsor rays.
