Join 📚 Miroslav's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Miroslav's read, .
Languages differ not only in how they build their sentences, but also in how they break down nature to secure the elements to put in these sentences….By these more or less distinct terms we ascribe a semi-fictitious isolation to parts of experience. English terms, like ‘sky, hill, swamp,’ persuade us to regard some elusive aspect of nature’s endless variety as a distinct THING, almost like a table or chair. Thus, English and similar tongues lead us to think of the universe as a collection of rather distinct objects and events corresponding to words. Indeed, this is the implicit picture of classical physics and astronomy—that the universe is essentially a collection of detached objects of different sizes.”
Re-Create Your Life
Morty Lefkoe
Upřímné pochyby jsou lepší než neupřímná víra.
“The Achieved is what you’ve actually achieved over the past 90 days. “The Ideal is where you wish you were. “You have an ideal in your mind, and you’re measuring yourself against your ideal, rather than against the actual progress you’ve made. This is why you’re unhappy with what you’ve done, and it’s probably why you’re unhappy with everything in your life. “You’re measuring yourself in the GAP.”
