Its amazing what you can remember once you start to concentrate. While writing my story, details that I never thought I could recall are coming back to me. Pictures on the wall, colors of doors, room arrangements, the way we parked, what people said. I read a bit about this. Studies where people are hypnotized and they can recall who came to their 4^th birthday party. Or they can remember what was on page 32 in moby dick when it was read 2 years ago. Our mind has astonishing abilities, and yet we rarely utilize them. It takes work and time.

I need to be challenged. I realized that about my job now. Im not challenged at all so I do a half ass job. I think if I had the challenge, I would respond to it. That’s how a lot of things go. Nobody wants to do anything until they have to, or are put up to a challenge. Stumbling energy as Kolpak puts it. You want to write that book, get that degree, work out 3 times a week, stop smoking, eat better, etc., but for the most part you just stumble and forget about it. I agree that we are all smart people capable of great things. But just cause your capable doesn’t mean a damn thing. Its what you produce. Even if you produce something that only means a damn to yourself and your character, that’s enough. It’s the apathetic “could haves” that really get me now a days. Yes your smart, but what do you have to show for it?

Then you have the complete morons who do something notable. This usually piss’s all the lazy genius’s off. They say, “Well, I could have done that in my sleep.” Well, but you didn’t, so it doesn’t matter. Then the genius’s will just continue their “could be something lives”, complaining about how stupid the morons are.

For then i ask you, who's more stupid afterall, the moron or the genius?
