YOU ARE WHAT YOU LOVE .the spiritual power of habit.
-brilliance of system: removes need 4decision making #LIVE. everything reaction, &eventually habit, rather than choice. admitting powerlessness : how things made. Beatles invasion.. "Understanding Media: extensions of man" : more talked about read. medium's content matters less than medium. tiktok you don't even have 2go 2another page to see another video. you just SCROLL. now, try to read a book.. "ADD." INDECISION. less patient reader. in just 20y, medium choice for all communication &information. (why you can't ban conservatives from, not a private company; but the new public square). "indie creativity had remained subordinate to the needs of the group.. they thought deeply as they read deeply." "neurons seem to want to receive input. when their usual input disappears, they start responding to the next best thing. the read adaptability of neurons." the power of habit: craving drives habit.companies understanding science of cravings :revolutionary. toothpastes add additives w sole job of making mouth tingle after you brush.. "feel cleaner." shampoos don't foam, also, laundry detergent, but we add foaming chemicals ppl expect it (tv?) no cleaning benefit, but once expected, brain craves. -brain can be reprogrammed, you just have to be deliberate about it. cute, routine, reward. -once developed habit -once its brain anticipated reward -distractions held no allure. <3

if you can keep your head , when all about you are losing theirs &blaming.. trust yourself when all men doubt, but make allowance for their doubting too; if you can wait ¬ be tired of waiting, or being lied about, don't deal in lies, or being hated, don't give way to hating, &yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise. if you can dream -¬ make dreams your master; think -¬ make thoughts your aim; if you can meet w Triumph &Diaster, &treat those 2 imposters just the same; if you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken twisted by knaves to make a trap fro fools, or watch the things you gave your life to, broken. &stoop &build em up w worn -out tools. if you can make 1 heap of all your winnings &risk it on 1 turn of pitch &toss, &lose, &start again at your beginnings, &never breathe a word about your loss.. if you can talk w crowds &keep your virtue, or walk w Kings -nor lose the common touch, if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you. if all men count w you, but none too much.. Yours is the Earth &everything that's in it, &-which is more -you'll be a Man, my son!

nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. persistence &determination alone are omnipotent. -calvin coolidge i am not an extraordinary man, &i am quite ordinary. but God chose me for something quite extraordinary. -a. valladares receives '16 canterbury medal.
not failure, but low aim, is crime -james russell lowell
a genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus -mlk jr. (you are all leaders .#experts) it is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. the credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust &sweat &blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again &again because there is no effort without error &shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worth cause; who at the best knows in the end the trump of high achievement, &who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold &timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. -theodore roosevelt we are what we repeatedly do. excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. -aristotle
no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. -eleanor roosevelt a dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it.-gk c.
