“Don’t set goals for your creative blocks.”
Creative work is not a task to be checked off a next actions list. If you decide that you need to complete a particular project by the end of a block, for example, you’re likely to either be frustrated by your lack of progress or rush out something mediocre. Instead, focus on process. Decide how, exactly, you are going to approach the work. This focuses your energy. High-quality results will follow naturally from this focused work.

My goal has been to finish an article or page by the end of the allotted time. SMH. I’ve been doing it all wrong. Instead of concentrating on the end product I need to focus on my writing process.

EXCELLENT! THAT IS WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!! Let’s create for the medium at hand allowing the truly creative and innovative to come to life because the technology is there and the market is craving the different. Creative interactive media will win every time. I think it truly has to be both in order to be truly successful.

One World One God
I wish religious harmony for the world. We all are equal under one God! Our world will be a better place, if we love and respect each other irrespective of our religion. With respectful coexistence of different religions, peace will prevail in the world.
