By definition, the scientific method is a method. You have to have linear thinking. That is the way the left brain processes. Science is essentially measuring the physical world that we experience through our left brain. It's not very good at being able to replicate, capture or measure these other experiences that we're having that we would often define as spiritual or woo-woo.

Có một câu nói rất hay của Haseeb Quershi, thành viên của Dragonfly Capital là: Có ba động lực chính thúc đẩy người dùng tham gia Crypto ngày nay: Kiếm tiền (Making money). Có niềm vui (Having fun). Lý tưởng (Ideology).

So what’s wrong with that?

In some cases, the loss of self-awareness is so profound that subjects cannot even recognize themselves in the mirror.

a terrible tradeoff: in an effort to shut off terrifying sensations, they had also deadened their capacity to feel fully alive. 

no activation of the “self-sensing” areas of the brain when compared to non-traumatized subjects:

Other common conditions which often have no clear physical cause

Xác định giai đoạn của dòng vốn đang ở kịch bản nào, giai đoạn nào.Rà soát các đồng coin mà dòng vốn sẽ chảy vào.Phân tích biểu đồ và chọn 1-2 đồng để mua vào.Lập kế hoạch giao dịch: Điểm vào, điểm ra, cắt lỗ, đi vốn, quản trị rủi ro, quản trị kỳ vọng... và tiến hành giao dịch theo kế hoạch.Sau khi đạt target thì Flip qua những đồng Altcoin chưa pump để tận dụng sức mạnh của lãi kép.

Sau nhiều lần quan sát mùa Bitcoin, mình đúc kết ra được có hai điều kiện tiên quyết giúp anh em có thể nhận ra được mùa Altcoin đã đến hay chưa, đó là:Bitcoin Dominance phải GIẢM.Dòng tiền phải dịch chuyển sang Altcoin.Vốn hóa phải dao động không đáng kể hoặc tăng lên.

history presents a different challenge to Mr Xi. On the party’s left wing are neo-Maoists who have long agitated for a restoration of their hero, and have criticised Deng, whom they blame for such problems as corruption and inequality. On the right are those who worry (very privately) that China is sliding back towards a Mao-style dictatorship and losing its commitment to Deng’s reforms.

Speeches by Mr Xi and the writings of official commentators offer clues. It is expected to celebrate the party’s achievements, minimise the horrors unleashed by Mao and suggest that Mao, Deng and Mr Xi have shared the same vision. The reigns of Mao and Deng will be presented as essential preliminary phases before the start of Mr Xi’s “new era”. Mao helped the Chinese people “stand up” after a century of humiliation by foreign powers. Deng set China on a path to “get rich” after centuries of poverty. Now Mr Xi is helping China to “get strong”. The resolution will hail Mr Xi’s judicious leadership in managing social, economic and national-security challenges, and suggest a continuing need for his wisdom.

I prefer to define project completion by setting a timeframe rather than an arbitrary milestone

Identify the thing that causes your fear and anxiety. Look for ways to make it bigger than it is. For example, if you have a fear of failing, then consider trying things that you don't know how to do. Set yourself up to do something where you might fail. Then start putting yourself in situations where you are going to fail. Continue to do this until the idea of failing no longer causes you extreme dread and fear.

That’s a Big Mac of emotional layers going on.

2. Vulnerability is being candid about who you are, not hiding yourself or trying to impress others, not covering up your flaws or weaknesses, admitting your mistakes, sharing yourself unabashedly.

This was my first exposure to the "Systems Mindset." The idea that when faced with any kind of recurring task or process, there is usually some way to set up a system to handle it for you.

Since there is no central bank in DeFi, the lending rates respond more to market demand than in TradFi.

This is certainly the easiest kind of yield to understand. You deposit some DAI into Compound. They let someone else borrow that DAI at 5%. They pay you 4 of that 5% for providing the liquidity. Boom, interest!It's the same thing TradFi banks do when you deposit money into a savings account, there are just significantly fewer middlemen who need a paycheck along the way.

We showed that there is a correlation between how long a person stays up and how much he dreams the next night. Roughly speaking, for every ten extra minutes of activity each day, a man gets one extra minute of REM sleep. We also found that the more you dream, the shorter your reaction time during your next phase of wakefulness. After we made this discovery, the French army tried to find drugs that artificially increase the amount of time spent dreaming, with the hope of producing very long days of thirty or more hours for soldiers.

Interestingly, during the subsequent experiments I did with other research subjects, all of the people in the caves showed cycles longer than twenty-four hours. In fact, it became common for them to achieve cycles lasting forty-eight hours: They would have thirty-six hours of continuous activity followed by twelve to fourteen hours of sleep. After we made that discovery, the French army gave me lots of funding. They wanted me to analyze how it would be possible for a soldier to double his wakeful activity.

I believe that when you are surrounded by night—the cave was completely dark, with just a light bulb—your memory does not capture the time. You forget. After one or two days, you don’t remember what you have done a day or two before.

Reading makes us more empathetic, improves our attention span, enhances logical reasoning, and so on and so forth.
