Re: Re: Art

[defyance]

Now that is a nice way of looking at things, I never really thought of thinking about it in that respect. Giving back to the world some of the knowledge that I have gained is an excellent way to build self confidence, to say to ones self, yeah, I know how to do that, let me help you learn. Similar to the all around aura of perlmonks. I should consider what I have done as a helpful thing, not look at it as my property and be greedy with it. I once thought that I was totally into this "open source" thing, but it looks like I have a long way to go before I even understand the true meaning behind it all. I can take something that I have done and show it to someone, but not feel comfortable with giving it to them, maybe because I don't realize that I may have made something to help them out, because I have never looked at in that respect. I have the concept down, now, the true trial will be thinking in that manner, wanting to give back, wanting to help, wanting knowledge to be shared, because with knowledge is power(not the M$ type of power, the personal kind), with power is happiness, and happiness is what will save this world.

Thanks for helping me open my mind artist, it was by chance that I saw this reply when I did I had no intention of coming to perlmonks, hit the wrong link on my bookmarks..

Hi
I would say based on your perception of my writings, find more and more ways to help your manager insteading of limiting yourself to your current project and idea that you are planning to convert into project.

You will find serveral ways of doing because of the number of application/people in your department/companies are very large. You can use magnitude of technologies and websites and expert advices etc, to make your manager's task faster, smoother and almost effortless for them.

I am sure that you will get all types of help from your manager once you declare your intentions to your self and start exercising better thinking and working practices.

If it's possible, make a list all the ideas that you think can improve your department/company and also write that you think like that. Don't think of implementation complexities as of yet. Your mere thinking is what is of extreme value. You can send the list to me and I may be able to help you to complete it.

With that the amount of recognition and self-fullfillment that you will get will be much much more than even you have expected in the first place.

Try to understand this second formula with all your attention and try to understand the meaning behind it. See if you can feel it.

First you be right, than everything will be allright .

Also, if you think that appreciation is necessary and the nature of your need for it is of immediate type, than start appreciating the intelligence/power of other things/people immediately surrounding you, only after being AWARE of them. You will realize soon that the awareness of intelligence within them is one of the important factor before the appreciation. Which may prompt you to think about awareness of your managers about you and your intelligence and you would be able to understand their art better. More you become aware, more you will know about life and enjoy it.

Read the projects like ThinkCycle and you would consider more about being an open source personality.
Enjoy
