Excess of colour blinds the eye.
Pollution of sounds deafens the ear.
Overindulgence in food hurts the palate.

Craving and chasing make the mind race.
Sensual pursuits lead astray.

That is why the Sage listens to her soul, not her senses.
She lets go of the external world and steps within.

I know, seems that as I am a jolly good chap, that will do !
Had a telephone interview some time ago for a job in Norwich, I wasn't very keen and showed little enthusiasm and virtually none of the technical skills required (lots of yeah I have heard of that but never used it). The bloke finished with 'sounds like you are just what we're looking for' !!! Clearly NOT I replied...

Drink cider followed by vodka as well - that will make sure you're completely gutted.

Think I have just blown an interview, did well on the competency side but struggled on a supposed ITIL technical side which was looking for lists regurgitated from the books. Would have well suited me, good candy, 7 miles from home, nice big co, 3 months with mention of at least another 8.....gutted.

Go out and get hammered. That always helps.
