Philosophy is the foundation of all of societies' thoughts, and notions of the famous thinkers percolate out to the masses. Most of philosophy has been detrimental to society because it is not thought through. War is stupid, regardless of how many great thinkers think it good.

Lou Holtz once said, “It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.” Stress is a load of immense pressure and when we carry it wrong, we will be crushed under its weight. We all feel the crippling effect(s) of unrest when we’re faced with problems daily. These issues range from freaking out about an exam tomorrow to the moment our lives fall apart because finances worked against our favor.

Stepping back from the world has always been part of human life. We're social animals but sometimes we want to be alone. That impulse is as old as civilisation but has never been more urgent.

The future will be shaped not only by technology, but also by the liberation of human potential, much of it locked up in obsolete schooling. This book mines the rich cultural legacy of philosophy, folklore, and legend, especially Greek mythology, to understand their inner meaning and their relevance to the dilemmas of a troubled and confused world at the crossroads of evolution.

We don't think much about most of the things that happen with our body. Breathing, walking, swallowing, blinking just seem to happen naturally. But we carry a spongy, wrinkled organ in our head that controls every little action that your body does. Our brain is in charge of thinking, memorizing, learning, creating, feeling emotions and many, many more actions. The way how it is built once made the Nobel laureate James Watson to say that it is "the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe."

Have you ever wondered how your early life shaped you? From beginning to say simple words like 'mama' and learning how to walk around unaided, to the first day of school and forming new friendships, everyone has been a child. The roots of our adult selves go right back to our first experiences. How we think, act and interact is influenced by our early years, yet most people don't know the key findings from the juiciest child development studies that can give us insight into our adult selves.

To avoid the hurt from life's failures, we allow in more pain by downsizing our dreams. You know that you can reach that mountain top, yet deny it out of conditioned fear. The only way up is to remove every single layer of faulty programming.

Dell'anima è stato detto di tutto: che è mortale o immortale, che può salvarsi o dannarsi, conoscere la verità o cadere nell'errore, che eleva e nobilita tutto ciò che nell'uomo è poco nobile, cosicché anche il desiderio non è solo dei corpi. Due secoli fa si pensò che potesse ammalarsi, proprio come il corpo, e richiedere medici dell'anima: nacquero la psichiatria, la psicoanalisi, la psicologia, che tolsero all'anima la sua aureola e contribuirono a disperderne la verità nei vari saperi.

Die psychoanalytische Theorie nimmt an, dass der Ablauf der seelischen Vorgänge automatisch durch das Lustprinzip reguliert wird, das heißt, dass wir in unserer ganzen Existenz durch Vermeidung von Unlust oder Erzeugung von Lust getrieben sind. Aber es gibt darüber hinaus noch stärkere, unbekanntere "Triebe". Und Sigmund Freud geht auf die Suche nach jenen fundamentalen und kreatürlichen Dingen in der Seele, die ihm in der Arbeit als Therapeut begegnet sind, Wie zum Beispiel der Wiederholungszwang. Mit Hilfe von Hypothesen und in einer professoralen Sprache schlägt er sich Bahn.
