I have changed my job functions and industry many times in my career. Actually almost every time I changed job, my role and industry background changed as well. A few days ago, a confused friend asked me he couldn't think of what to write on his CV where he is applying for a job he has no experiences or relevant industry background.

There are trillions of new and exciting things to come all the time and it seems my mind is never really at rest. I think this is why I have burned my hair away significantly. I often joke about it that I myself is evolving from cat-5 cable to wifi connected! (sadly laughing at myself in the mirror). Anyway, it is far too often that I cannot sleep at night. So I try to mediate to help my mind to slow down. However, for a guy like me, when I close my eyes, I have tons of ideas that burst out from within that meditation actually create more wishes or projects that I want to do compulsively. With these crazy things happening in my mind, I increasingly force myself to relax during meditation. It's helpless with a personality like mine! However, I've discovered that the solution to a better, more focus and qualitatively
