How anxiety manipulates you =>Self-doubt: Anxiety makes us question ourselves. Once self-doubt creeps in, anxiety makes it grow and take over how we view ourselves. =>Fear: A big part of anxiety is fear. Anxiety takes what is dear to you and makes you afraid of losing it. =>Worries, what-ifs, and worse-case scenarios: These are closely related to fears. It puts thoughts of the worst-case scenarios in our minds, effectively trapping us. =>Need for control: We don’t want our fears to manifest. We hate being plagued by constant self-doubt. And we’re weary of our worries. To get rid of them, we focus on them, trying very hard to control them.

Only great pain, the long, slow pain that takes its time… compels us to descend to our ultimate depths… I doubt that such pain makes us “better”; but I know it makes us more profound… From such abysses, from such severe sickness, one returns newborn, having shed one’s skin… with merrier senses, with a second dangerous innocence in joy, more childlike and yet a hundred times subtler than one has ever been before. Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche Ελεύθερη μετάφραση στα ελληνικά Μόνο ο μεγάλος πόνος, ο μακρύς, αργός πόνος που παίρνει τον χρόνο του… μας αναγκάζει να κατέβουμε στα έσχατα βάθη μας… Αμφιβάλλω αν αυτός ο πόνος μας κάνει «καλύτερους» – αλλά ξέρω ότι μας κάνει να ψάξουμε βαθύτερα μέσα μας… Από τέτοιες αβύσσους, από τέτοια βαριά αρρώστια, επιστρέφει κανείς αναγεννημένος, έχοντας αποτινάξει το δέρμα του… με πιο χαρούμενες αισθήσεις, με μια δεύτερη επικίνδυνη αθωότητα στη χαρά, πιο παιδική και…

How to make the most boring lecture exciting Why do all fairy tales begin with phrase ‘Once upon a time…’? The answer is relevant for anyone who gives presentations: to the sociolinguist William Labov, if we weave hard facts into narrative patterns, associations with well-known fairy tales are evoked in our memories which remind us the pleasure of listening to them. With the sequence that our attention span increases. Classic fairy tales follow a particular sequence: – Abstract: how does it begin? (‘Once upon a time…’) – Complicating action: who/where/when? (‘A King and a Queen had a daughter…’) – Resolution: solution (‘Then he stopped and kissed Sleeping Beauty. And she opened her eyes for the first time in many, many years…’) – Evaluation: what results from it? (‘And they lived happily ever after!’) – Coda: what remains? (‘And the moral of the story…’) A lecture should be structured along the…
True or false? In a world of hate, love is always a conspiracy. In a world of war, peace is always a conspiracy. In a world of bullying, smile is always a conspiracy. In a world of money, giving is always a conspiracy. In a world of dirty, pure is always a conspiracy. In a world of fake, real is always a conspiracy. In a world of more, less is always a conspiracy. #mindstormGR #world #conspiracy
One can’t understand everything at once, we can’t begin with perfection all at once! In order to reach perfection, one must begin by being ignorant of a great deal. And if we understand things too quickly, perhaps we shan’t understand them thoroughly. Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot #perfection #understanding #mindstormGR
Apple sells Innovation, not the gadgets. Rolex sells Status, not the watches. Nike sells Motivation, not the shoes. Ferrari Sells Passion, not the cars. Red Bull sells Energy, not the drinks. McDonald’s sells happiness, not the burgers Brands sell the Emotion, not the products. It is called “Emotional Marketing”. Make sure your brand not only sells, but also has a story that evokes feelings and emotions. #mindstormGR
