The title of this post is made unambiguous by the following reflection: Depth comes from creativity, creativity comes from study. I wish to say that so far this year has not been one of no study.

1 What’s wrong

Some of the values I have in my [[Life Principles]] are as follows:

  1. Creativity
  2. Consistency
  3. Depth
  4. Persistence
  5. Fasting
  6. Sprinting

Some of these are overlapping, some of these are strictly complementary. Some of these are spiritually natural, yet others are disciplinal.

This year I had one goal: Becoming a better game developer. But writing out goals is one way of losing fuel forever.

2 Climb up

The year is not over. There is still time to bootstrap the courage, displine, and delusion. Writing it out – inconsistently – is the way to lose fuel. Writing it out – consistently – is the way to bootstrap fuel.
