teach yourself how to teach yourself

how do you do that, you ask? i have no clue. it was just a catch for you to keep on reading. pretty neat, eh. seriously, what i really wanted to say is "teach your body how to teach itself".

to elaborate: it's like raising your body and your soul (and other parts of your being) to absorb anything that comes along the way- that means learning it and making it stick that you don't have to think of it every now and then. think of muscle memory when you eat- spoon, fork, chopsticks, where you mouth is. you know.

now, think bigger and faster: that means a lot of info to learn, and faster.

next: how do we do that? this is where google comes in. but not all will be laid for you by google. you still need to decipher all the pages it presents you. but to filter things down, here's my list of pointer (in no particular order)
  • hold on to that interest - i don't know how you'll do it. what i do? i try to learn my interests first. if i got stuck. i leave it and move to the next interest at hand. i don't stay on something where i don't get anything. then somewhere along the way, i get back to where i left.
  • know thy self - really? i need to explain further? simply put, if you don't know yourself, you're in a big trouble.
  • taking a break is not bad, not at all - batteries, fuel, food, energy, r and r, sleep: you will die if you don't take a break.
  • google is not your only friend - actually, search engines are just the middle men. they introduce all the friends that you need.
now what?  leave this blog and go some-blog else. you don't expect me to give you all the details, now, do you? i don't spoon feed. sorry.

Thailand Changed Constitutions More Than Philippines Did—Yet They Are Both Unstable

The comparison is useful precisely because it shows that frequent constitutional change is not the cause of instability so much as a symptom of unresolved struggles over political power. Thailand has had about 20 constitutions/charters since 1932, many after coups; the Philippines has kept its 1987 Constitution essentially unchanged for over 35 years, yet both remain politically volatile. What Thailand’s churn shows Thailand’s repeated rewrites were often attempts by competing forces—military, monarchy-aligned elites, elected governments, and mass movements—to lock in a favorable political settlement. The 1997 “People’s Constitution,” the 2007 post-coup charter, and the 2017 military-era constitution each embodied different rules, but none created durable democratic legitimacy. In other words, Thailand changed the **rules** frequently, but the underlying conflict—over who controls elected government, the military, and unelected institutions—remained unresolved. The 1997 order ended in ...

The Philippines’ Hidden Failure Modes: Why the Country Keeps Getting Stuck

The Philippines does not lack talent, young people, entrepreneurs, natural resources, or policy ideas. Its deeper problem is that the country often struggles to turn plans, budgets, and reforms into reliable public services, productive jobs, resilient infrastructure, and long-term national capability. The visible crises—floods, blackouts, corruption scandals, inflation, debt, and political instability—are symptoms of a larger system. At the center is a governance-and-accountability gap: public money is allocated, agencies announce programs, projects begin, but the results too often fail to reach the people who need them. The core failure: a capability gap The Philippines’ most dangerous hidden failure mode is not simply corruption or debt. It is the difficulty of converting public spending into durable capability. The Philippine Institute for Development Studies argues that the country’s development constraints come not mainly from a lack of policies or resources, but from fragmented i...
