I can take long breaks but I always come back. There are a lot of iterations since the release, but I stick to the vanilla gameplay. Here is a quick thought on what I believe Minecraft has taught me.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><b>Project Planning<\/b><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Creating a build in Minecraft can be as easy as digging a 2&#215;2 hole or as complex as an entire kingdom. There are all types of different structures you can build, but each one requires a process. I got into building and when you build a lot you start to develop this process further.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><i>Idea Phase<\/i><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Something starts ticking around your head and doesn\u2019t leave until you have manifested the idea.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><i>Research<\/i><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Checkout youtube, google images, create some sketches on paper. Find the perfect area to build, figure out the materials you need, Go into creative mode and play around prototyping.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><i>Task and Priority List<\/i><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Gather materials, prep the area, terraform. Break large projects into smaller tasks.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><i>Building<\/i><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Get the barebones laid out, take it one step at a time. Step back and view, always making constant iterations. Time usually allocates 20% building and 80% decorating. Most of the time is on the finer details.<\/p><div>\u00a0<\/div><div>Last is the extreme dopamine rush of having a completed project to look at and use. Each building and project adds together to make your game experience exponentially better.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Playing Minecraft has taught me a lot<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":270,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=268"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":272,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268\/revisions\/272"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/270"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=268"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=268"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/larrybuffaloboy.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=268"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
