Limitless

I watched Limitless yesterday. It was... classy, fresh, thrilling, full of psychological twists and turns, and gave me a dose of humanity 101. The whole story is surrounding this pill. This pill allows us to access ALL of our brains rather than just 20%. When a man not doing well in life takes it, he becomes... well limitless. After watching the movie I wanted one of those. I couldn't even begin to imagine how different my life would be. Even with all the monstrous things that happened to him...
So I began to think all what it was the pill did to him that made him successful, and the main thing he did was... remember. In almost every scene he used a memory of something he had previously done. For example when he is downtown he got into a fight, but remembered watching a jackie Chan movie when he was little. He was easily able to fight them off. So this movie made me realize that success is closely linked with memory. Just a thought.

March

Doesn't it always seem like in March we find ourselves? Or maybe not finding ourselves... but it's evident that every year in March we, or at least I, make an effort to better ourselves. That's when I started this blog: last year in March.
Every March something changes in me. Be it the change in weather (although there's not much of a change around here) or the pressure that people put on me around this time. I always get inspired, every March.
