Just Fucking Do It

I keep falling into the same trap. I try to understand too much before starting to learn a new skill.

Learning before acting is approriate when:

 1. A mistake will cause the failure of a life critical or mission critical system in operation

In all other instances, JUST FUCKING START. Go through the motions, you do not need to understand, you need to DO.

JFDI Just Fucking Do it.

More aimed at procrastination, but someone on /g/ (cool your autism) gave me the following advice:

Nothing you can do except just do it. That motivation you feel when you do something you actually want always fades quickly and after that all you can do is willpower through.
Ask yourself "Is it literally impossible for me to do X right now?" If the answer is no then start doing it. Excuses will keep popping up.

Thanks.

It happens most often when I know that I don't understand the scope of the problem. So I try to define the borders and get lost in a sea of meaningless details.

I will never be able to define the borders of a complex issue until I've started to actually develop the solution.

Life lesson: take smaller bites, chew them well.

The problem isn't that I can't be bothered to do a certain thing but that I want to do some other (usually specific thing) at that time.

In my case it's sort of both. I procrastinate by learning/doing unrelated things. For example when I first tried to learn C, I instead went to the library and learned toponymy instead.
Even though it has been years, I still don't know C very well. But ask me where a British/Irish town name came from, and I will be able to tell you.

>>5
all I remember from one summer i spent trying to learn C is that it was a long boring lonely affair.

First time i tried borland C was extremely flustrating and compiler IDE was poorly designed compared to QBasic so i never used it until i installed Digital Mars C.

That's what you get for trying to write C on Windows.

>>8
That version was for MSDOS actually.

Back to /g/, please!

There is one thing you have to understand: If it ain't Lisp, it's crap.

Ask yourself "Is it literally impossible for me to start killing jews right now?" If the answer is no then start killing jews. Excuses will keep popping up.

This is a terrible attitude, you're one of these new age creative "programmers" that cares more about writing code than producing correct software.

>>14
No. If you feel that jews are danger to aryans, just follow you feelings.

>>15

why would jews give a shit about indians? they're a manufacturing base.

Bill Gates and other jewish billionaries are pretty autistic. These followers of Ayn Rand believe that all goyim are insects, who eat too much and crap too much. So they continuously spend billions developing pesticide vaccines.

It's clear that other problems, such as overpopulation and damage to the environment, are much bigger than non-free software.

http://cyber.eserver.org/unabom.txt
Among the abnormal conditions present in modern industrial society are excessive density of population. It is well known that crowding increases stress and aggression. ... The only solution will be some sort of eugenics program or extensive genetic engineering of human beings, so that man in the future will no longer be a creation of nature, or of chance, or of God (depending on your religious or philosophical opinions), but a manufactured product.

Tomatoes (along with potatoes, bananas and other plants) are being investigated as vehicles for delivering edible vaccines.

Bill Gates is not jewish!

>>18
Yeah! And Ballmer is chinese.

Stallman is probably german and avowed christian.

Ayn Rand itself is purely russian. No jewish roots.

Coincidence?

William Henry Gates III is a fucking WASP, and you're a silly nigger.

>>20
He is Jewish.

Computer scientists are either jewish, or gay (Anal Turing), or female (Ada). Not a manly trade.

Ayn Rand itself is purely russian. No jewish roots.
You can tell by the fact that instead of self-realizing by becoming rich and powerful she wrote books explaining how money and power are the only things worth achieving. You don't get more Russian (and less Jewish) than that.
