Yesterday and today I found materials on the web that helped me understand my “brain condition”. This is an article about why using internet gets us dumber and the other one is a video of John Cleese talking about creativity.

I felt really easily distracted at work and any other activity. For some time now I felt I am getting dumber ( like I lost my creativity powers). I just remember years ago when I was using my brain more for solving tasks and equations (not looking them up on the internet) . What changed those few years is that I USE MORE INTERNET. I am going to take Mr. Cleese’s advice and establish a small spacetime bounderies somewhere so I can try become creative again and use my brain more on a specific task. I even forget things and have no memory of knowing them. :X
Another observation I made is that even my posts are “emptier” after year 2008. I am surely not getting paranoid about this because I have these observations for some time now, and right now I think I really can admit it.
Side Note: I missed a friend’s party and broke a promise, but I really needed that time for another brain activity. I hope my friends will understand. After all, we can always party some other time 😛
