People Don’t Care about You as Much as You Think

And why that’s good news — We tend to overestimate how much people care about us and our actions. I learned this lesson when I became a creator — if you ever posted anything on the internet, you know how hard it is to get eyes on your content. I worried about writing articles or posting…

Modern Life Is Not an Urban Jungle

And we don’t compete but cooperate — Many people like to consider themselves as some godly, alpha species outside this world. And although we indeed have immense potential deep inside, before everything — biologically, we are animals. And we still have many primal instincts that manifest even in our modern 21st century. There is a clear correlation…

The Simple Mindset Shift to Let Go of Unnecessary Ideals

And start living in our dirty world — I remember being a young fool, full of hope, ideals, and attitude. While it’s not bad for a child, it resulted from growing up in a pretty good home, having parents who put candy glasses on my face.

The Age of Copycats on Social Media

And so, when I started writing, it was obvious to me that I should take care of my social media presence — build a personal brand. Today, 3000 tweets, hundreds of other posts, and a…

There Are No Problems in the Present Moment

So why do we choose to worry and how to stop it — Imagine waking up on a beautiful, sunny morning in some heavenly place on vacation. You woke up without an alarm clock, and soon you’ll go to the beach to sunbathe. …

What Makes Humans So Different from Other Animals

It all boils down to one truly unique ability — Human, by definition in biology, is just animal. Like most animals, we have cells with genetic material, lungs, a nervous system, a heart, a brain, and other components. And we move to gain energy and feed our bodies, excreting unprocessed waste.

The Myth of Objectivity and Its Impact on the Individual

Objectivity is a cheap ideal — I remember when I wondered as a child: “If this thing — the world I see, is real? Do others see this the same as I do?” And I guess every child goes through a similar dilemma. But then we start interacting with people, e.g., …

Irrelevant Matters — Our Purpose

We write because everything in the world is relevant — somewhere for somebody. — Everything in the world is relevant — somewhere for somebody, but we often ignore it by focusing only on ourselves. “How can you be so emotionally involved in a sports match!? Why do you even care about 22 men kicking the ball — it’s irrelevant to your life!” Said wife…
