Why I left Google 13 years ago

it seems like she never took the time to find herself. It sounds like she was always involved in something and she was able to shoot strait too the top without thinking about it much. I think a lot of people people just need some time to get it figured out and sometimes some fun years at college isn't enough. I know that was super involved as a undergrad and i thought I had life figured out by the time i was done, but it wasn't until i was an unemployed, relatively unknown person in a different area for my graduate studies that I was able to find out how i wanted i really wanted to do with my own life.

Procrastination 13 years ago

I like the point this article made about planing ahead for your procrastination, but I feel like this article could have given more reasons of why to we procrastinate to help us battle it. Take brain brain fatigue as in example. I know that im much less likely to procrastinate if i do things right after I wake up and i have the energy to do things that I dont really want to do.

I found that garden analogy to be quite interesting. It surprises me a bit to see even Poole doesn't get to enjoy his work as much. Even with the simple and anonymous design the site holds,I assumed he still had time to enjoy the post more on that page in between "picking for weeds". I wonder if he would be able to do more for the site if he was able to enjoy it more. Good Read.
