Am mai scris despre pasiune, aici:
Revin cu noi idei.
Când râzi, lași garda jos. Dacă eu vorbesc pe un ton foarte monoton, și tu nu te poți abține să nu râzi, dar nu batjocoritor, ci pentru că ți-ai dat seama de o chestie pe care am zis-o eu, tu în momentul ăla ești vulnerabil. Suferi un pic. Ai inițiat râsul. Tu însuți devii ținta întrebării „De ce râzi? De ce ești așa ciudat? De ce ieși din starea de normalitate?” Când râzi, primul lucru e că devii mai slab, și ai o mică suferință. Când râzi, creezi o legătură. Ca să te simți confortabil cu cineva și să râzi, te legi de omul respectiv. Te conectezi cu el. Te-ai prins de poantă, i-ai cedat ceva, te mișcă ceva. Când râzi, nu mimezi asta. E foarte greu să mimezi un râs veridic. Poți să îmi zici „Vai, ce observație bună”, dar să fie fals mesajul ăsta. Să nu crezi, relamente asta. Dar e foarte dificil să râzi credibil. Despre dovada că râsul produce suferință și se creează o legătură. Vezi clipul ăsta: Dutch TV presenter wont stop laughing – YouTube. Există și varianta clipului cu traducerea, dar originalul pe care îl dau aici e mult mai OK. Așa, deci – tipul nu se poate abține să nu râdă. Nu are voie, nu e OK. Ulterior, își va pierde, în viața reală, jobul pentru chestia respectivă. Din păcate, are un râs batjocoritor (râde de om, nu de idee). Rămâne însă în clip observația că se creează o conexiune între cei doi. E ceva. Se mișcă ceva. Și …
The word „passion” comes from: 1125–75; Middle English (< Old French ) < Medieval Latin passiōn- (stem of passiō ) Christ’s sufferings onthe cross, any of the Biblical accounts of these (> late Old English passiōn ), special use of Late Latin passiō suffering, submission, derivative of Latin passus, past participle of patī to suffer, submit; see -ion (source) „Passion” can be, thus, interpreted less as: Ah, look at my energy, I am so energetic, let’s put energy. And more as: I will suffer for this. How does one suffer, in business environments? Most likely – through work. So, „passion” is more about „work” than it is about a special emotion. :) Note: the current definition contradicts me, but the name origin doesn’t. P.S.

I thought that this:
- Start at one of the lowest minimum bet tables. This allows you to become comfortable with your strategy with the least amount of investment.
- With each losing hand, double your bet until you win back the money lost. This is whats known as a „reverse-progression”, „Martingale strategy” or „double bet strategy”. (source)
Could actually be working. It doesn’t.
I have once been to a conference in which one guy said that you can best predict a person’s behavior, by analyzing its relationship with just three things: Chocolate, money & sex. E.g., if you like chocolate to much, or too little, or you put restrictions, this affects your whole life. Same for money & sex. They can predict a lot of things in your life.
In The Great Dictator (1940), there is a character called Garbitsch (Garbage, but funny). :)
(spolier alert!) I’ve had quite a few insights while watching Life of Pi (2012):
Still, why don’t I like the movie?
Sometimes, I see people with criteria around them – „In order to …, you will have to …”. My criteria is this – „In order for me to consider you a top-notch person …, you will have to …”. On the other hand, I try to put no criteria on behavior. So, my thought above is an internal one, not an external one. I try not to request people to do actions, in order for me to treat them right (or how I perceive right). Some people do request certain a behavior to receive a certain behavior („you have to act like this, in order for me to act like that”). Über-cool thing: even if I do meet the criteria, I tend to despise that thinking. It’s a faulty logic, no matter if I fulfill the criteria or not. My logic goes like this: „I generally don’t ask people to do something, in order for me to do something. But for you, especially, I will apply the same criteria you apply to others. Take it as a gift”.
I talked with a friend recently about love matters. I generally don’t tackle this topic, so I didn’t have a procedure ready to apply.
I realized this – you should just keep your mouth shut. Or say things without any meaning. Don’t try to influence in any way. That’s it.
Sometimes, I listen to stupid things. People tell me things which I don’t adhere to. But I get good insights out of them.
