CALM IS CONTAGIOUS

“If then it’s not that the things you pursue or avoid are coming at you, but rather that you in a senseare seeking them out, at least try to keep your judgment of them steady, and they too will remaincalm and you won’t be seen chasing after or fleeing from them.”
—MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 11.

There is a maxim that Navy SEALs pass from oficer to oficer, man to man. In the midst of chaos,even in the fog of war, their batle-tested advice is this: “Calm is contagious.”

Especially when that calm is coming from the man or woman in charge. If the men begin to lose theirwits, if the group is unsure of what to do next, it’s the leader’s job to do one thing: instill calm—not byforce but by example.That’s who you want to be, whatever your line of work: the casual, relaxed person in every situationwho tells everyone else to take a breath and not to worry. Because you’ve got this.

Don’t be the agitator,the paranoid, the worrier, or the irrational. Be the calm, not the liability.

It will catch on.

Ideas do not always come in a flash, but by diligent trial-and-error experiments that take time and thought."

Electrical engineer Charles Kao pioneered the development of fibre optics in telecommunications. He was awarded the 2009 physics prize.

All I know is war is not good for anyone. Perhaps something's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cooking, so let's pray hard for our country.

We need to pray hard for ETHIOPIA. 🙏🙏🙏🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹

TAKE A WALK
“We should take wandering outdoor walks, so that the mind might be nourished and refreshed bythe open air and deep breathing.”
—SENECA, ON TRANQUILITY OF MIND, 17.8

In a notoriously loud city like Rome, it was nearly impossible to find peace and quiet.

The noises of wagons, the shouting of vendors, the hammering of a blacksmith—all filled the streets with piercing violence (to say nothing of the putrid smells of a city with poor sewage and sanitation). So philosophers went on many walks—to get where they needed to go, to clear their minds, to get fresh air. Throughout the ages, philosophers, writers, poets, and thinkers have found that walking offers an additional benefit—time and space for better work. As Nietzsche would later say: “It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.”Today, make sure you take a walk. And in the future, when you get stressed or overwhelmed, take a walk. When you have a tough problem to solve or a decision to make, take a walk. When you want to be creative, take a walk. When you need to get some air, take a walk. When you have a phone call to make, take a walk. When you need some exercise, take a long walk. When you have a meeting or a friend over, take a walk together.

Nourish yourself and your mind and solve your problems along the way.

Jesus, not Virgin Mary, saved the world, Vatican says

Jesus alone saved the world, said the new instruction, settling an internal debate that had befuddled senior Church figures for decades, and even sparked rare open disagreement among recent popes.

The late Pope Francis fiercely opposed granting Mary the noscript of "co-redeemer", at one point calling the idea "foolishness".
"She never wanted to take anything for herself from her son," Francis, who died in April, said in 2019.

Ig that's what Protestants have been saying

“Thank you to those so often forgotten by the politics of our city … I speak of Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican abuelas. Senegalese taxi drivers and Uzbek nurses. Trinidadian line cooks and Ethiopian aunties, yes aunties.”

Ig we forgot how much war is destructive.

THE DEFINITION OFINSANITY

“If you are defeated once and tell yourself you will overcome, but carry on as before, know in theend you’ll be so ill and weakened that eventually you won’t even notice your mistake and willbegin to rationalize your behavior.”
—EPICTETUS, DISCOURSES, 2.18.31

It's been said that the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over again but expecting adiferent result. Yet that’s exactly what most people do. They tell themselves: Today, I won’t get angry.Today, I won’t gorge myself. But they don’t actually do anything diferently. They try the same routine andhope it will work this time. Hope is not a strategy!Failure is a part of life we have litle choice over.

Learning from failure, on the other hand, isoptional. We have to choose to learn. We must consciously opt to do things diferently—to tweak andchange until we actually get the result we’re after. But that’s hard.

Sticking with the same unsuccessful patern is easy. It doesn’t take any thought or any additional efort,which is probably why most people do it.

Ig we didn't prayed hard. Let's pray harder before it escalate more.

This speech by Steve Jobs always echoes in my mind. I’ve probably posted it here a lot of times too.
