  • The world outside my doorstep is a really complex net of chaos

    You are right. Another word to describe it: it is lacking structures. That’s where man comes into the picture: You. You can create structure.

    Having that wonderful and powerful ADHD brain too, I found that I need to find and create structures within myself first. Then I can go on and give structures to the world outside.

    One important step is to describe structures in explicit words. Often write them down or draw them on real paper, in order not to forget on the next day, or after an eventful weekend (for me it’s always the weekend - Monday morning I am so empty and I need to start with reading all that I have done at the end of last week).

    Another good approach is to describe and define goals and strategies. A goal is where I want to get. A strategy is the order of steps needed to get to the goal.

    Somebody explained it to me like climbing the mountains. You can’t just wander around there and hope to find a way sooner or later because you would get lost inevitably, and your force is limited and your day runs out etc. So you have to look at a specific point and say “There it is where I want to go!”. Then you look and think and decide and say “This is the way, and these are the steps to get there!”. And you cannot start before you know the way. But when you know it, you can go and start your climbing.






  • First, about eternity:

    Your physical body ceases to exist. Eternity remains. That means, math and physics have no meaning for you anymore.

    Time will end for you. That’s the part that’s the most difficult to imagine. It is easier to think about how the first 3 dimensions have no meaning anymore, but then time will be gone as well, but you are still there.

    Now heaven and hell:

    Heaven is when you are forever on good terms with the God who has made you, and his whole bunch there. You will have all that you need for an excellent life there.

    Hell is when you aren’t - then you remain alone with your grumpy self, or maybe with the devil who makes his life good at your expense.
