learning from TED


I have had the chance to find out about Ted talk a couple of years ago and get inspired of most of them if its my kind of subject, I have enjoyed many these TED talks even those that have a similarity to TEDtalks but done years prior like where John Cleese talk about Creativity and when Douglas Adams talked about Parrots, the universe and everything (it was on YT)
I saw this TED talk on YT today, its only 3minute long talk called the Secret of Success in 8words.
PASSION. - Do it for love. 
WORK, have fun- Work o frolics. 
Be GOOD at what you do. Practice practice practice. 
FOCUS on one thing. 
PUSH yourself- make them selfdoubts go away. Mom pushed me. 
SERVE, a privilege to serve others. Values 
IDEAS. Listen, Observe, be curious ask questions, problem solve, make connections 
PERSIST le failure. All that  C.R.A.P. (criticism, rejection, assholes, pressure) 

On the female front in TED talks a woman talked about Ask questions She started the Crowdfunding for her music band, very inspiring lady to me. 
   Margaret Hefferman about Dare to disagree. I'm a shy person so I learned some I need to practice on. See constructive conflict Agree to disagree. Different background, discipline and experinece. Require alot of patience and energy. Only if you really care you will do that. Biggest disaster come from organisations. How do organisations think? They dont they cant think because the people inside of them being afraid of raise a conflict. She gave an example of that and as the closing sentence Margaret said -Openness isn't the end it is the beginning.

   A third woman to mention from TED talks is Jill Taylor Bolte who had a Stroke, being a brain scientist/researcher professional she did a very good anecdote and entertaining, educating speech. I made a hoppity attempt to transcript some of her saying, but I guess if you´re into learning about left and right, its better to see Jill on YT for yourself. 
Brother with Schizophrenia only make introvert, not participate with the world like normal. Research during the day and .. A blood vessel exploded. Could not walk, talk or think in right -parallell procesoor -left serial processor different personalities and think about different think. 
 Right side of brain pictures and kinestetic. present moment look like and right hemisphere energy. Brothers and sisters we are perfect. 
 Left hemisphere is linear, all about the past and the future. pick up details, the details associates it with all we learned, think in language. Left side reminds doin laundry I am, I am. Become separate from the energyfield in the right side. The feeling of stroke. looking focused on inner system. lost balance. look on the arm, cant define the boundaries only see energy. 
  The left side shut down. Leftside got back online, we got a problem. 
Right side brain being in LaLa land. All relationships gone when 37y emotional bagage. 
Left brain got back I gotta get to world. Right phone This is Stroke All pixels. 45min. Going to Lala land. Golden Retriever... A little while later, hospital ambulance. Energy lift, spirit surrender. No more choreographer of my life. Chocked to be alive. Loud chaotic sound. Lights too bright, felt enourmous and ... Remember cannot squeeze my enourmousness into that small body, I've found Nirvana. Compassionate people, purposedly choose to go to that semisphere. Motivated to live again. 8 years to recover. The lifeforce of the universe. I Have the power to choose what I want to be. Or choose to be single solid separated from the crowd. The we inside of me. Which do you choose and when? More peaceful in the right hemisphere, thats why an idea is worth spreading.
And thats all TED talks are about being a bit T? Educational Inspiring. (I don't remember what the T stands for, technic, teaching?) Anyways, have to go to bed now. Its 11pm and I got an early start to-morrow. Cheers

How about a moodboard?

I've heard of this dreamboard through Oprah, TV-show I've even made an attempt to do my own kind of dream board.
Now recently I've heard about this moodboard. Its used by designers when they want to style a room or something. The idea of it is apparently that helps others to 'get inside our heads' in order to convey a thematic setting for a design or to explain function in piece of work. The mood board is used to get the right feeling for the livingroom or kitchen you want to decorate.
My work in progress.
(Although to me it sounded like a mood board should be about showing how one's week has been. Did I feel happy or sad this day? The mood board could be a Good tool in therapy I imagine. I don't know anything about decorating myself,  I'm more into human feelings.)

I follow the news


I'm not surprised when I read about the surveillance from USA, Snowdens telling have made France  admit to their collecting although lesser than the UK. Since I read 1984, the book about Big Brother, I've felt that the cameras are everywhere, and aren they?
I got upset about the freightrain in Canada. It saddening, a small society have lost someone they know. Protesters stood June 28. to stop the train from passing through Canada, 4 of them persons got arrested.
One notice in the news brought me joy. I found out about gardening surrogacy. How one can support a vegetable from a far and then get it transported home, good business idea I thought to myself, all I need is a farm.

At Daily show with Jon Stewart-YT search Edward Snowden hides out in Russia.
-Snowden in Hotel California you can checkout anytime, but you can never leave.

Its a tragedy. God bless

in thrapy


In therapy
- What are you afraid of then?
- Only the unknown. If I do do those things I have thought of doing, I expect some kind of response.
All I want is likes and no dislikes. I mean What will I do with dislikes? I have searched for the ney sayers on twitter and given my response to them. Why is it so? I'm actively searching for those who think different than me instead of belonging to the group of same thinkers? Those who think alike? What is my problem?
- There is so many ways of saying it but it all comes done to the will and the word. Let it be known what you want and it will come to you.
- Ok, what is it I want?
- To not be afraid. You will have to begin to think more positively. Reach out...
(therapist singing I'll be there...and scene)
