My Absolute Value Theory

The absolute value |x| of a real number x is the numerical value of a real number without regard to its sign. In simpler terms,

it is the distance of x from zero.

From an algebraic perspective, it looks like this:

If x ≥ 0, then |x| = x; if x < 0, then |x| = −x

Confusing? Yeah.

The -x makes it seem like the result is negative but "−x" must be interpreted as "the opposite of x".

In reality, you just have to make the negative number positive and retain the number if it is positive.

One random day, I realized that the absolute theory can be applied to our daily existence. It has taught me two things in life:

1. that one can turn any negative x to positive

So, x may represent any circumstance that is or has a negative impact to your life. One can simply turn it into something positive by putting bars. In this case, bars may represent your effort to turn negative things to positive.

2.  distance is never negative.

I have no explanation for #2. Math says it is never negative. Math is an absolute truth. Math works, bitches!

Life Refactoring

I was actually thinking of a good workaround to improve my overall perspective in life or..well, life itself. While I was trying to figure out the things that I need to sort out, I realized that a pretty nice patch is not the answer to my problem. haha. reFUCKtoring REFACTORING is the solution.



A patch is a workaround or a temporary solution to a system's problem. (If you don't like my definition, you can Google it. Go ahead, I won't mind.) Being the impatient person that I am, I know this may sound weird but I don't like a temporary solution to the things that I need to fix anymore. I want something long-term. I want something legen... wait for it... dary. Wait, seriously, I realized that I don't need the quick and dirty solution. I need some refactoring. Yes. You heard it from me... life refactoring.

According to this shit:

Refactoring is the art of reworking your code into a more simplified or efficient form in a disciplined way.

For more info about refactoring, click this shit. Why am I oversharing? HAHAHAHA!

Anyway, so being the weird me, I came up with something that you won't actually imagine me doing: real world application of the concepts of refactoring.

The concepts of refactoring are relatively simple compared to, let's say, Brownian Motion. But anyway, my point is, I would just like to share my life refactoring ideas with you. If anyone's even reading this. Why am I such a boring blogger?

Anyway...

Refactoring is rethinking.

Some time last year, my life got shattered a little bit so I need to re-think and restructure my goals and priorities. This year's a brand new year and I need to start anew.

Refactoring is done in small steps.

Yup. Slowly but surely I need to eliminate the annoying habits that I still have. I'll start with my tardiness and then to x... x+1...x+2. Fuck. #whatthefuckamiwriting

Refactoring is simplifying.

Part of the rethinking process is simplifying. I guess I have to kind of reduce the complexity of my thoughts. WHAT??? Seriously, I just have to breakdown the tasks that I need to accomplish into smaller pieces. Mini goals = More fun!

Refactoring is proactive.

I told you I want something long-term. I want to be prepared for the future. YEHESSS. This is the mature Kat and I'm going to call her Kat 2.0 :)

Refactoring is a disciplined way to improve productivity.

Actually the whole point of this blog is this. I just want to come up and follow some kind of protocols in order for me to become a more productive and better person in the coming years.
