📚 Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman 📕 Book 44/50 📑 249/249✅

Nice book, wouldn't call it groundbreaking, there's a lot to unpack from it and to implement in real life. This basically explains why EI (emotional intelligence) matters more than IQ, with prime examples of CEOs and brilliant people failing to lead a team, not reading the room and unable to control their anxiety. The striking point about it was the "Amygdala" part I made a separate post about it here. Our emotional brain (limbic system) is millions of years older than our thinking brain (neocortex) which explains why in the moments of anger, agony and outbursts our logic completely shuts down. Emotional Brain is superior but it can be to our disadvantage. Goleman shows several ways to master and take control of it, true we can't predict when anger happens but we can control how long it lasts with it. First one is Self-awarenes(I made a post with Samurai example here) then self-regulation the capacity to manage an emotion before it becomes destructive. Third, motivation and then empathy (our social radar) that detects the need of others. Last one is fostering social skills, the art of managing the emotions of others to create that perfect harmony. That's about it. 4 out of 5

"A Samurai challenges a Zen Master to explain the concept of Heaven and Hell. The monk insults the Samurai, calling him a "lout." The Samurai, instantly enraged, draws his sword to kill the monk. The monk says: "That is Hell." The Samurai freezes. He realizes he was in the grip of anger. He sheathes his sword and bows in gratitude for the lesson. The monk says: "And that is Heaven." The difference between "Hell" and "Heaven" was not the emotion itself, the Samurai still felt the anger. The difference was the awareness. The moment he realized, "I am angry," his rational brain (the neocortex) came online and observed the feeling, giving him the choice not to strike." @acceptthyself

An almond-shaped cluster of neurons. Two of them, each about 1.5 cm long. That's 2 grams of tissue per hemisphere. Together, less than the weight of a sugar packet. These structures process every emotional experience you've ever had. Every fear. Every moment of joy. Every surge of rage. Remove them, and you lose the ability to recognize your own mother's face as meaningful. You can see her. You can name her. But she becomes emotionally equivalent to a stranger. You stop crying. Tears become neurologically impossible. You lose fear entirely. Not bravery. The concept of danger itself vanishes. Every memory remains intact in explicit detail. But they feel like you're reading someone else's diary. The emotional weight is gone. This is "affective blindness." Your amygdala responds to threats in 12 milliseconds. Your thinking brain gets the signal in 24 milliseconds. For those 12 milliseconds, you are pure emotion. This happens 20 times per minute. Over a lifetime, your amygdala makes 840 million split-second decisions about what matters before you consciously think about it. It tags everything. "Remember this." "Fear this." "Love this." Without those tags, you can recall everything and learn nothing. So when you feel something deeply, that's not weakness. That's 4 grams of ancient tissue telling you what matters. When a song gives you chills. When you tear up. When your chest tightens seeing someone you love. That's your amygdala doing its job. Without it, you'd have a life full of events but empty of meaning. Maybe the feelings you try to logic away are worth listening to. @acceptthyself

"This was a great adhesive" "Mad fans around the world" @acceptthyself

For that reason, people frequently express doubts about Diogenes and the other Cynics who employed wholesale freedom of speech and admonished everyone they encountered. Were they right to do that? What if those being scolded were deaf and mute, either born that way or from some disease? You say, “Why be economical with words? They cost nothing. I cannot know whether I will help the person I am admonishing, but if I admonish many, I know that I will help someone. I should scatter the seed broadly: if one makes many attempts, some of them are bound to succeed.” I think, dear Lucilius, that this is not what a great man should do. It dilutes his authority: if he makes his words too common, they do not have sufficient weight with the very people he could otherwise set straight. An archer ought not to hit the mark sometimes and miss it sometimes: anything that gets its results by chance is not a skill. Wisdom is a skill. It should go after the sure thing, choosing those who will benefit and holding off from those who are beyond hope. Still, it should not abandon them too quickly: desperate cases call for desperate remedies.

📚 To Sell is Human, Daniel Pink 📕 Book 43/50 📑 187/187✅

Well, this one started from caveat emptor and ended with caveat venditor. Meaning that there's no more information asymmetry between a buyer and seller, which makes any salesperson into giving the actual value instead of manipulating their own way into selling something. Selling isn't just a transaction done upon convincing someone into getting something, all of us are sellers in fact. It is basically moving someone: you suggest your friends to watch that film, children asking their parents and moving them to buy something and me as writing this I'm moving you (a reader) to give me your attention in exchange for valuable information that you are receiving. A must read for any salesperson, debunks many myths and methods that don't work anymore.

"It is strangely very hard to understand ourselves when we are merely ourselves. Self-knowledge is - necessarily - a two-person business. We need another's mirroring function to know the shape of our own characters. It's only when they start to laugh that we understand that we said something funny. Or because they got irritated that we sense we crossed a boundary. Or because they were moved by our story that we register that we might have suffered a wound. The amount we feel we have to say to another person is determined by how much we unconsciously sense they are able to grasp. One person can ask us what we did for the weekend and our minds will go blank; another can ask the same question and unleash a stream of memories and thoughts." © @acceptthyself

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: UBC Okanagan Physicists just proved that the Universe isn’t a simulation after all and that we are all 100% real. UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrated that the universe cannot be simulated, using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic understanding,” something no computation can replicate. This discovery disproves the simulation hypothesis and reveals that the universe’s foundations exist beyond any algorithmic system ‘and increases the likelihood of God being real.’ they note. @acceptthyself
