RELIGIOUS VIEW:ATHEISM
- things happen because of scientific reasons or can happen randomly for no reason; we get our food due to the agricultural advances&economic policies we adopt; Money is the material shape of the principle that men who deal with one another must deal by trade& give value for value.Money is made possible only by the men who produce; every belief should begin by flowing to a specific anticipation& should continue to pay rent in future anticipations, if a belief turns deadbeat,evict it; In order to live, man must act, in order to act, he must make choices, in order to make choices, he must define a code of values, in order to define a code of values, he must know what he is and where he is—i.e., he must know his own nature (including his means of knowledge)& the nature of the universe in which he acts—i.e., he needs metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, which means: philosophy.
POLITICAL VIEW:TRUTH&JUSTICE
- list unanswered Qs,where we don’t know if an intervention works,run a RANDOMISED TRIAL-this won’t cost money,will save money,in unprecedented amounts,by permitting disinvestment in failed interventions&will transform the country;Incapacity is far bigger problem than corruption & feeds corruption -FUNCTIONING SYSTEMS need be built to get rid of guerilla struggle in chaos &help one predict a connection between effort they exert &result they want to achieve;CHILD FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT SHOULD BE VISIONARY SOCEITY’S CENTRAL THEME-exactly the same opportunity to learn,regardless of family background income,or geographic location.Education not as a way to produce star performers,but as instrument to even out social inequality &impart emotional & practical skills;would be better educated if we were taught mainly,although not exclusively,by SOCEITY’S DOERS: businesspeople,who work in nonprofits,tradespeople,as well as in the government-those who can do -who can’t teach,write,or make movies. intrinsic motivation that EDUCATION IN SCIENCES gives is reliable security force in the soceity;good war sanctifies a cause,not good cause a war;JUSTICE=not advocating for one side,but unearthing relevant facts &law;Morality is neither rational nor absolute or natural &one valid for all is basically immoral except for temperance;Weariness that wants to reach the ultimate with 1leap has created all gods&afterworlds;Idealism is mendaciousness in the face of what is necessary;Democracy whr ignorants choices win cant be respected;
- The only EVIL is ignorance. who wr seen dancing wr thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music. Battle not with monsters lest ye become a monster. one acts aggressively not frm abstract principle but in response to concrete forces,under duress,out of interest,for something,against something. Forgiveness depends on a sense tht nastiness is an expression of suffering,not maliciousness. so much bitterness wld be removed if one trusted tht ppl behave as they do not frm spite or evil but out of no choice.
- To be incapable of taking one’s enemies & misdeeds seriously for very long that is the sign of the STRONG:power to form,to mold,to recuperate,to forget. Maturity is to regain the seriousness that one had as a child at play. Being cheerful is really no recipe to get down to work: nothing happens until paranoia, jealousy, competitiveness and guilt arrive. Whr you hate &envy most,is whr clues r to what u should do next.
- Don’t feed the trolls unless *I’m* really interested in the gossip. It is UNCIVILISED to relay issues of others privacy. Truth stripped off context is as good as a lie. which interpretation prevails at a given time is function of power not truth. living in a constant chase after gain compels people to continual pretense &overeaching &anticipating other. Cynicism is how base souls approach honesty.
- If you can’t handle me at my worst, then u sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best. “what doesn’t kill, makes u stronger” is one of the manifestations that “denial” takes.most practical and necessary proposals are always dismissed as ‘very idealistic’. When people FEEL VALUED not shown value,they tend to cooperate,they resist submission.
- If people r only interested in u 4r ur looks,then u’re a commodity &u get discarded.Sensuality is about who u r as a person,how u move &laugh &talk &think &style urself &relate to other people -fullness of ur life,ur charisma &character.Prettiness fades but sensuality evolves -it’s not a thing, but an energy. What if,instead of being hot,v encouraged girls to be fascinating?gave girls attention &recognition simply for being their own lovely,creative,complicated selves?we expected &demanded of them to develop their minds &talents along with their wardrobes?didn’t punish them for seeking attention,but offered them lots of legitimate,constructive ways to do so?
- When u bcome ur own rebellion,u establish psychological independence.Going with ur head makes it arbitrary.Language is not reality,but our best attempt to explain reality. v can edit it any way v want to rationalize or justify ourselves (otherwise known as “confirmation bias”). v put a certain spin on things. Or v allow other people to spin them for us &v absorb those distortions as truths. but it either feels good or it doesn’t.it either makes u feel light or the opposite.But it is what it is &it can’t be argued with. u can move toward it, or let your head lead u away from it, but u can’t change its essential message, or the fact that it knows what u need better than u do (especially when what u need isn’t exactly what u want). v are gloriously and perfectly imperfect. but often the smart thing is not to try to change our natures, but our situation, including relationships that prove toxic to us. It’s perhaps one of the biggest tragedies of our nature that we take the people we love and attempt to change them into who we think they should be…because it makes life easier for us, because it suits our agenda, because it makes us feel more comfortable.
- The typical PEDAGOGICAL trap is apparently u want to help ur son but the real goal is to remain ideal figure for ur son – u must sacrifice tht reputation. As long as kid can make SENSE of the story of his life –the very clear rules &consequences,which requires an awesome level of energy,vigilance &self-control on parent’s part– he can make it. Thinking tht something will be worse for ur kids than they wr for u is NARCISSISTIC error of parenting “My kids are weaker than me” then humanity is doomed.
- It is the desire,not the desired, that we love. profession of every man begins with hypocrisy,copying of whats most effective -who always plays one & the same role finally ceases to be a hypocrite.mold job description to one’s personality.when danger to will is greatest,art approaches as a saving sorceress.only as an AESTHETIC phenomenon existence &world are eternally justified.
- Triumph from practicability of principles,not charm. Security from integrity to conscience,not emotions. GOALS: self-control, abundance mentality, functional communication, righteous community.
- First order imitation isn’t quite the strategy to most effectively develop a skill. Make stuff i genuinely like, i myself admire & respect. Secure the enthusiasm needed to progress & finish, because you’re guaranteed atleast one positive recipient.
- Always produce to drive out the demons of fantasizing. quick questioning strategy to get into the zone [wedge-rules respect-deadlines pound-hard fail-now produce-future]
- protect money & time but always share what you know.
- relate with those who have intellectual pursuits like reading or traveling ‘with an aim to build something productive or beautiful’ on their agenda. Don’t waste time with people who can’t make you contribute academically. relate with people who’re doing productive work in your fields of interest, who’ve a habit of reading books, who don’t trespass others’ life.
- Always show a care bear concern. smiling eyes are courteous & just like jerks contagious.
- fight for the silence to listen to your inner intuitive voice and everything that goes into the unique creation of you – your identity- consistent & truthful -things that cannot & will not change for anyone or anything -reality behind the surface, truth behind the image. if it meant nothing to you there’d be no resistance. between the life we live and the unlived life within us lies resistance -procrastination, distraction, selfsabotage, a friend’s negativity, or anything else that keeps you from making art. and that is worth fighting for. compel to explore the unconscious parts of yourself
- POSITIVE ATTITUDE=stock of new perspectives to cheer yourself & motivate your discipline to always stay part of the solution.
- Always have a positive view of self,experiences & future. Use realistic less destructive interpretations.
- Self-assurance not self-awareness drives performance. SELF can change the way it thinks. so believe in it.
- Have the mindset to turn your weaknesses/fears into strengths -the remarkable u.
- Discover what you don’t like doing & stop doing it – for sustained individual success. Reject opportunities which do not entertain your strengths. Self-respect is the necessary condition for self-improvement.
- Authenticity is the one, the development of which will strengthen & increase all other virtues.
- AUTONOMY- Act on your own principles & keeping everyone’s well-being in mind. This builds confidence, cures procrastination & shakes off criticisms.
- INVEST IN GRIT & reap feeling more gritty.
- im not afraid of my mistakes. i can pass past them.
- i not afraid to be alone. i can work on my goals.
- If you hear resistance, express empathy. Clarity is the antidote of anxiety.
