What’s behind a bigger purpose? Is it genetics, or is it earned?

Beginning this post providing evidence from several studies carried out in this field. According to them a slight variation in a particular gene is associated with bigger purpose and sometimes altruistic behavior. Greater Good Magazine article from Berkeley University, which you can also read fully here analyzed this. In the study, published in the journal Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, German researchers took a saliva sample from 101 men and women, using the sa

To be, or to do, that is the question

According to the history, to be, or not to be is the opening phrase of a soliloquy spoken by Prince Hamlet in the so-called "nunnery scene" of William Shakespeare's play Hamlet. Act III, Scene I Possibly in today’s world, the most valuable currency you can have is to walk the talk, or in another words do and comply with the things you promise or say almost every day, regardless of if it’s in a working environment, to family, friends, or via WhatsApp. We live in world of const

From instant gratification to instant appreciation

And why we should do it. Not just because the stoic millennial discipline talks about it, but also because if not, we might end up unproductively complaining about our current status quo, rather than actively doing something (finding solutions) to change it. We might be quickly infecting everything and everyone around us, with an impact on our limited time in the Earth and our happiness in the long run. That is why most of the things providing instant or immediate gratificati

I'm that guy pushing the button

When the traffic light just went green for the cars to go. I’m that m****r-f****r turning around when an old person is standing in the bus or train whilst I’m comfortably scared thinking about losing my place. I’m that stupid guy not giving a shit when parking my car and not foreseeing well that extra space I’m taking out for another person to park. I’m that fool that takes twice the portion of what I need because I want it all me, regardless of the next ones to come. I’m tha

We don't have more time

Than the time we already have and had. No one is ensuring us, me or anyone we are making it to the next day. There is no past, nor future. Those concepts both live in our minds. For sure they are not what is happening now, which is the essence of who we are. We are not our past, what we accomplished, our title, our job, our role, neither our future. We are just the one thing we have done and how we have done it at the very last second. This is who we are, our last second, our

When you think “it’s over”, but you still have 10.000 laps to go

Or as the most masterminded and hearted ones would say, it takes 10.000 times to conclude “I tried enough”. Michelangelo, Aristotle, Newton, Michael Jordan, Steven Spielberg, Robin Sharma, Joshua Waitzkin, Tim Ferris, Greg Mckeown and other not so well-known names practiced that thing they believed in, with a very concrete and unique pattern in common: they never gave up, until they made it, whichever it was what they believed in or they wanted to accomplish. They kept practi
