Does Mayan Calendar Predict End of This World In 2012?
Posted by – May 19, 2009
Is the world really going to end in 2012? I don’t think so. On December 21 (or 23), 2012, the Mayan calendar completes it’s 13th b’ak’tun cycle, which started August 11, 3114 BC. Wikipedia says that academic research does not indicate that the Maya themselves attached any particular ‘doomsday’ significance to the year 2012. However according the 2012 doomsday prediction the world is going to end that day. New Age Movement says the planet and its inhabitants may undergo a positive physical or spiritual transformation and 2012 may well be the end of the world as we know it, but not the end of the human species.
One way or another, this could be one of the most global and the most engaging experiments ever. 
The result of this experiment could determine the fate of planet Earth and all mankind. There is going to be a lot of focus on that date. The closer we’ll be to that date, the more focus there’s going to be. According to the law of attraction, we could experience some interesting manifestations of this focus, especially when this becomes a global topic.
How To Never Be Bored Again And Why Having Too Much to Do Isn’t Necessarily a Bad Thing
Posted by – May 17, 2009
I haven’t been bored for years now. At least not for very long. There’s simply always enough tasks to do, projects to tackle, fun things to explore or places to visit in my life. I’m experiencing situations that bring more and more interesting people into my life every day and I’m constantly generating more ideas than I can ever handle. Let me explain why you should, too.

Pareto Principle Applied to Photography
Posted by – May 12, 2009
GWY stands for a Guy with a camera. A GWY is somebody who has an decent camera and thinks they’re a pro but in fact they cannot shoot good photos.
Do I fit the definition? Maybe. But I know this: I love photography. I’m not an expert and I don’t know all the photography tips and tricks and photoshop effects the experts recommend. Nor I have the newest camera and a set of top-quality lenses. However I know I have a mindset and the will to learn everything necessary if I wanted to and if I wanted to spend the time. I also know I could get all the equipment I’d need.

I’m actually learning those tricks slowly as I need them time to time and I’m also improving my equipment. I’m priviledged to be influenced by some great photographers I had a chance to meet recently and I’m also grateful to Jeff from 360cities that showed me some nice tricks and also introduced me to the world of HDR.
That said, I usually apply the Pareto principle to my pictures. I don’t spend too much time on them. When I first started using this approach I had a hard time with it. I wanted everything to be perfect, no matter the time spent. That’s a highway to hell, well, at least a highway to not doing other things I want to do. So nowdays I only spend time with really important pictures.

This approach brings me a mixture of great elements of life. Fun with much more experimenting than I could do if I was a perfectionist, more lessons to be learned and a warm fuzzy feeling of self-achievement because “I know I can but I don’t”.
