I am a great fan of Richard Feynman. Many of his quotes are my favorite.

You can approach his lectures here.

And wisdom about how to learn is in the photo.

Never regret anything

 A very inspiring article about Isabel Walker changing career at the age of 72!

“I have a philosophy that I never regret anything,” Walker says. “I just say: OK, I’ve made the decision. Let’s plough ahead. Let’s not think about what I might have done instead or maybe it was a mistake.” Isabel says.

This is in line with a philosophy of active forgetting; regret is a metaphysical parasite. 

Indeed, a very powerful wisdom that saves a lot of energy!

More of Existentialism (and more of Anti-Psychiatry)

Interesting interview with Dr. Emmy van Deurzen

Her work is inspired by RD Laing, the Scottish anti-psychiatrist who said insanity is a “perfectly rational adjustment to an insane world”.

"When people are experiencing a mental health crisis, they need help to make sense of what has happened to them, and to find their way to healing," she says.

"Existential therapy is “a philosophical approach to therapy and how to live your life in a better way, "Van Deurzen explains, “it is about working with life, rather than just with the psyche”. She of course mentions Dr, Viktor Frankl in this article.

Sapolsky - American neuroscientist, primatologist, Stanford professor — explains why in his book "Determined".

You can hear him discussing this with Neil deGrasse Tyson Star Talk, 

Absurd has never been this scientific.
