(do not)Move-fast-and-break-things

It’s a normal day, I plan my day like many others that I did before, I brew a cup of coffee and start walking through the doors of my mind, them I try to remember the first tasks that I have to tackle for the day, between one task and another, I start what I like to call the David way of doing things, some people call it multi-tasking I call the random non-ordinary order of trying to do as much as possible on the minimum period of time, it’s a behavior that I “naturally” developed unconsciousness/consciousness while trying to figuring out the best and more efficient way of doing things on my way, but as methodologies/behave are not bulletproof, something very unexpected happens in its worst form. I always thought of myself as somebody very methodic, logical(there is no science proving that), and pragmatic(another lie), but as hours passes without being noticed by the most diligent person’s mind, I remember that I only have two major errands to do before leaving one of my best friend’s house, first one: check on a recruiter email; the second one: make lunch very quickly, as I run to open the browser on my computer a naive-tiny thought sparks on my mind as a very inoffensive “idea”: What if I just start the cooking first while I check on that email? Well, I think I can be more efficient if I do that…well my friends this story resolves that I almost burnt my friend’s house in a matter of 30 minutes if the firefighters hadn’t shown up in such a short amount of time, after the shocking transgression that I just committed, the shameful feeling of impotence, scrutiny, petty, anger, sadness are the unique things that have been visiting my minds for the past few days…I hope you had better days than mine
