“Dear Procrastinator: Taking action in and of itself is not difficult, but is in fact satisfying and is usually followed by a sense of pride & accomplishment. However, it is THINKING about the action that you should be taking and NOT taking it that's difficult, as it leaves you feeling guilty and unsatisfied. THE SOLUTION: Stop thinking and take action NOW.” ThinkingShouldFactsFeelingsActionDifficultPrideSolutionsDearGuiltyAccomplishmentSatisfyingTaking ActionUnsatisfiedFeeling GuiltyProcrastinatorThinking Differently Author:Hal Elrod
“[T]he mass-man sees in the State an anonymous power, and feeling himself, like it, anonymous, he believes that the State is something of his own. Suppose that in the public life of a country some difficulty, conflict, or problem presents itself, the mass-man will tend to demand that the State intervene immediately and undertake a solution directly with its immense and unassailable resources. This is the gravest danger that to-day threatens civilisation: State intervention; the absorption of all spontaneous social effort by the State.” MenBelieveCountryStatesFeelingsProblemSocialEffortDangerDemandConflictMassSolutionsResourcesDifficultyImmenseSpontaneousInterventionCivilisationPublic LifeAbsorption Book:the Revolt of the Masses Source: the Revolt of the Masses

“My feeling is that Darwinism is only at best a partial solution, and an extremely dangerous partial solution. I would say, based on the little I know, Darwinism explains microevolution within species quite well. As to its broader consequence and implications, I don't think it explains individual species evolution at all well.” ThinkingKnowsWellsLittlesFeelingsIndividualDangerousEvolutionSolutionsConsequenceSpeciesImplicationsDarwinism Author:Ben Stein
