"It so happened that many of these things that I had an honest interest in, and spent time on, helped me enormously later on. I am currently working on two research directions that have almost nothing to do with with my Ph.D. thesis, but are related to things I was curious about, and spent some time to think about in an honest way. So I suggest that if you end up working on something that is not very exciting to you, keep your curiosities alive, spend time on things that interest you—and these things may not even be scientific! Who knows where life will take you in 10, 15 years? I have a former mathematician friend who is an artist now, a former engineer friend who is a musician, another former engineer friend who is a sociologist. These people are much happier now than they were in their “previous lives”. Keeping an open mind and looking for things that you are genuinely interested in is worth the time and effort you spend on it."

Şu basit bir şeyi anlamıyor olmakla barışma, anlamadığını kendine itiraf etme şeyini (tekrar tekrar söylememe rağmen kendime) yıllardır tam halledemedim. Epey gelişme var ama hala bir hesabı açık açık yapmayı kendine yedirememe durumları oluyor, "sonucu hiç yazmadan görmen lazım, ayıp, ayıp", diye bir çift göz tepemden bakıyor.

Bunu okuyan bi çocuk yazdı az önce, mutlu oldum. (6 yıl falan oldu herhalde yazalı, hala uygulamakta zorlanıyorum bazılarını. Yukarıda dediğim şeyi (anlamadığını kendine itiraf etme şeyini) nispeten hallettim arada geçen zamanda, ama hemen pes etmeme, tekrar tekrar deneme işinde hala zayıflık var.)
