“Satire has a great big glaring target. If successful, it blasts a great big hole in the center. Directness there must be and singleness of aim: it is all aim, all trajectory.” IfsBigsSuccessfulAimHolesSatireTargetBlastTrajectorySingleness Book:Wyndham Lewis: collected poems and plays Source: Wyndham Lewis: collected poems and plays
“Of course, Jastrow's comment is exaggerated at best; theologians hardly predicted the Big Bang. If our universe turns out to be closed, hence with an end, this does not mean apocalyptic visions of the end of the world were on target. And even if a beginning for the universe is a successful prediction of one version of theism, this is still not that impressive. After all, even a stopped clock is right twice a day. The Big Bang becomes strong support for God only with an argument showing that such a beginning requires a Creator.” IfsWorldMeanDoeStillsEndsBigsReligionTurnsUniverseCoursesStrongVisionSupportSuccessfulArgumentCreatorVersionsClockTargetCommentPredictionsTheologianEnd Of The WorldBangsImpressiveExaggeratedApocalypticTheismStopped Clock Author:Taner Edis

“Instead of just purchasing an ad campaign, target test and measure. Give an ad a small try. If the response is enough to pay for the ad, make it larger. With a franchise, ask the most successful franchisees what they did. Ask the bottom five guys what they did and avoid it.” IfsGivingTryingEnoughGuyAsksPaySuccessfulFiveTestsResponseBottomCampaignsTargetAdsPurchasing Author:Dave Ramsey

“One of the best ways to properly evaluate and adapt to the many environmental stresses of life is to simply view them as normal. The adversity and failures in our lives, if adapted to and viewed as normal corrective feedback to use to get back on target, serve to develop in us an immunity against anxiety, depression, and the adverse responses to stress. Instead of tackling the most important priorities that would make us successful and effective in life, we prefer the path of least resistance and do things simply that will relieve our tension, such as shuffling papers and majoring in minors.” IfsWayImportantUseLife IsViewsPathSuccessfulOur LivesNormalPaperAnxietyStressAdversityResponseEnvironmentalPrioritiesBest WayResistanceTensionTargetGet BackMinorsPapersFeedbackEvaluateAdaptedAdverseImmunityTacklingShufflingPath Of Least ResistanceAnxiety Depression Author:Denis Waitley
