Computers are amazing.

You plug them in, tell them what to do, and as long as they have consistent power and good data they will keep doing that over and over.

And over.

And over.

Humans are not computers. Humans are biological beings with attention spans and distractions.

Also, don’t forget those icky things called feelings.

No matter how exciting something feels, or how interesting a topic is right now, at some point, that interest and excitement will fade.

Think about it.

You are surrounded right now by vast quantities of potential.

You could go write a program. Author a book. Create a life-saving device. Design an algorithm to end world hunger and save the environment.

Pick your poison here. The possibilities are endless. The world is your oyster and the opportunities abound.

Yet you are sitting there reading these words instead of doing something amazing.

Why is that?
