“It's easy to tell the evolutionary level of a group of beings, or an individual being, simply by examining their behavior, their art, their psychology, their thought forms, their lingual structures, their history, their present moment, their future ideas, and the quality of their emotions.” ArtIdeasMomentsFormHumanityIndividualEasyLevelsEmotionQualityPsychologyGroupsBuddhismBehaviorStructurePresent MomentExamining Author:Frederick Lenz
“I'm not a big dreamer. I never have been.The only thing I've sort of obviously extracted from the research of dreams is that I don't think there's a specific science you can put on dream psychology. I think that it's up to, obviously, the individual. Obviously, we suppress things, emotions, things during the day - thoughts that we obviously haven't thought through enough, and in that state of sleep when our subconscious or mind just sort of randomly fires off different surreal story structures, and when we wake up we should pay attention to these things.” ThinkingShouldMindHas BeensDifferentStatesEnoughStoriesDreamBigsIndividualSleepPayEmotionAttentionPsychologyFireHavensResearchWake UpStructurePay AttentionDreamerSubconsciousSurreal Author:Christopher Nolan
“There are a lot of guys who think that if they show weakness or vulnerability they're not sexy anymore or attractive. In my opinion, you can't be too open or too gentle or kind or sensitive. If you really want to work on a relationship and have one that lasts, you have to be willing to go deep into human psychology and emotion. If you don't want to go there, you can be a serial dater, and I guess that's okay, but if you want a relationship with a woman, you have to be introspective and look at yourself and your family and where you've been and where you're going.” IfsThinkingWantHumansLooksKindShowsLastsGuyEmotionOpinionPsychologyWillingWeaknessOkaySexyGentleOur FamilyAttractiveSensitiveVulnerabilityIntrospectiveSerialsLook At Yourself Author:Megan Fox
“You have to understand your own psychology. You have to understand that human beings weren't really designed to invest. We have all these emotions that are appropriate responses if you're being chased by a tiger, but they're terrible responses if you've got a 30-year time horizon to think about investment or when you're trying to manage investment over 30 years.” IfsThinkingTryingYearsHumansHuman BeingsEmotionPsychologyTerribleInvestmentResponseManageAppropriateHorizonTigers Author:William J.

“There was no point in seeking to convert the intellectuals. For intellectuals would never be converted and would anyway always yield to the stronger, and this will always be "the man in the street." Arguments must therefore be crude, clear and forcible, and appeal to emotions and instincts, not the intellect. Truth was unimportant and entirely subordinate to tactics and psychology.” MenEmotionClearPsychologyStreetsHe ManArgumentInstinctSeekingIntellectAppealsYieldTacticsNo PointUnimportantCrudeSubordinatesPsychological Warfare Author:Joseph Goebbels

“Positive thinking is just one small part of positive psychology. Plus, as an approach to well-being, positive thinking only helps you to the extent that it yields one or more positive emotions. The problem with positive thinking is that it sometimes just stays up "in the head" and fails to drip down to become a fully embodied experience.” ThinkingWellsSometimesHelpingProblemEmotionPsychologyFailingPositive ThinkingApproachWell BeingJust OnePlusYieldBeing PositiveSmall PartsPositive PsychologyPositive Emotions Author:Barbara Fredrickson
“My all-time favorite topic in positive psychology is the study of positive emotions. I'm fascinated by how pleasant experiences, which can be so subtle and fleeting, can add up over time to change who we become. I'm especially excited these days about investigating how positive emotions change the very ways that our cells form and function to keep us healthy.” WayFormEmotionStudyPsychologyHealthyFunctionAddExcitedAll TimeCellsThese DaysPleasantSubtleFascinatedTopicsFleetingPositive PsychologyInvestigatingPositive EmotionsAll Time Favorite Author:Barbara Fredrickson
