Food for thought

I was having a discussion with one of my roommates about how he thinks people never learn anything and everything is memorization. We had this talk for a few hours and came to a conclusion. That maybe there are no real original ideas with the amount of people that currently exist there is bound to be many who have the same thoughts and the only difference is if we chose to act on it or not. For instance there was probably many racist like Hitler but never did it but probably had the same idea. Then we came to the notion of if the person who had the cure of all illness had the idea but died with it we would never know. Which lead us into what if everyone did everything they thought of would the world be better or worse. I said it would be better as there would be more advancement. Curious on what others think

Procrastination

I have a test coming up and as I was studying I thought about all the procrastinating I do. I think it stems from the pressure of finishing something fast which makes you much more focused on the task at hand. While it is always great to do something weeks in advance. When ever something needs to be done in a short period of time it always takes a lot of focus as you a worried if you are going to get it done or not. I think over the years of my procrastinating I have gotten used to it and like the feeling of being rushed it makes me more in tune with the subject. So now I do not consider it procrastination but just readiness for a tough battle.
