Hang A Screech Owl Box

Sense of pleasure vs. Sense of duty

Diego's agave


"The sense of duty is like a horrible disease. It destroys the fabric of thought as certain diseases destroy the tissues of the body. [1]

What a dream job? In most cases, an activity that we wanted to take, less often, a job that we decided to follow, too often, a mirage, a figment of childhood fantasy, an aspiration that still survives in our dream visions, but drugged, stunned, and finally by the adult sense of duty mallet.

It seemed, therefore, particularly appropriate that the inaugural post for a blog whose main theme had coveted the professions, to propose a title similar to the announcement of a historic challenge: "A sense of pleasure against a sense of duty." In this match the cartel, which lasts a lifetime, is not accidental that has placed the sense of duty in the second round: one reserved, by convention guests. As the abortion of the outside world, the sense of duty is, in fact - in our consciousness - a stone guest becomes intrusive and the pleasure principle, in the more modest reality principle.
After that, "no wonder - Sigmund Freud said - if you feel happy for the sole reason to escape unhappiness, to endure the pain if, in the broadest sense, the task to avoid the pain, relegated to the background to get the pleasure. " [2]

is with the school - true mimesis of working life - the sense of duty soon enter the scene: 'Do homework first and then you can play! ", almost always accompanied by the most sinister and explicit warning" before the duty and then the pleasure! " . Such allegations were inoculated in the uncontaminated connective tissue of our consciousness.

The principle of duty will grow and age that often accompanies the noun - sense - the lost innocent synonymous meaning, to become a more consistent, even abominable, analogy perceptual element. After taste, smell, touch, hearing and vision, the duty rises - exactly - a sixth sense .
time, rules and codes. Social conventions continued to mark time until they suggest to start a family: when the sense of duty evolves into tombstone of dreams.

In short, with the intent to cheer routine days, you embark on an affair, the last moments of regurgitation mild adolescence; substitute for those carefree days we still feel that you deserve, by virtue of the sacrifices in the name of a sense of duty, which frees us from feelings of guilt and soul motto hedonistic "me to fuck me."

The daily return to their abode is hell whose flames a few manage to soften, before it crosses the threshold of the house.
Otherwise, all the frustrations are transposed on the family member, guilty of having caused the resignation of dream job, sacrificed on the altar of inflexible principles of duty. And while we refer to the meanest found to vent our frustrations on spouse and children, they invoke the same order, respect, obedience and deference.
With the muscles
furriers always a corrugated face of perpetual irritation and intolerance, are too difficult to make with ourselves, we let our ego takes out his revenge on others, innocent.

The sense of duty becomes the human being into a time bomb ready to explode in the most unusual forms whose picture just described, appears to be the painful and distressing as statistically significant between the occurrences recorded.

The sense of duty is the door to abuse or martyrdom, which corresponds respectively to a slow agony of ourselves or our families.

This blog is a humble contribution can be traced back to the choice to use the sense of pleasure, winning, so the challenge announced at the beginning of the article.

The message, therefore, is not directed only to those who took his first tentative steps into the world of work, but to those who want to gradually increase the sense of pleasure in the professions. With non-negligible effect - as evidenced emblematic case just mentioned - to make their own gay existence, and the people around us.

Discover the sense of pleasure in undertaking any activity, means - in an essential way - answering a question well-targeted. As they argue, in fact, many proponents of neuro-linguistic programming , an effective response always comes from effective demand. From this point of view, I persuaded the skimming operated by Timothy Ferriss in his instructive to 4 hours per week (Cairo Editore) : more than "what I want?" Or "what are my goals?", According to the author , the question is more suited "What excites me?".

replication spontaneous "substantial economic and personal satisfaction," could be harnessed in a company working workaholic, pressing, on good earnings in proportion, but without a bit of time to enjoy it.

So what? So this time, the answer comes from overseas. It is self-sufficient and is presented - in a convincing and concrete way - by bloggers Charles of Anjou, in his autobiography by the intriguing title how to earn your first 100,000, 00 € with a blog recently published.

Retracing the steps of his professional life - from employment counselor stressed and dissatisfied with online editor and made clear - in a nice Italian in style (rare virtue these days), the ebook is, however, enhanced by a Bonus-free which includes 15 video lessons, as well as two ebooks on business blogging and new frontiers of internet marketing.

electronic book, video or post, whatever the medium adopted, Charles of Anjou, however, appears to be at ease. Messages, content and lessons are presented in a genuine, spontaneous, genuine, natural, whose subtext is clear: anyone with a minimum strength of will, can achieve the goal sought by this dense trace suite of products editorial.

I had the good fortune to meet Charles, about a year ago. His optimism is viral and not be surprised if it were to spread a human being who has always enjoyed a favorable past. It is surprising, however, this vision rosy existence, and is even more persuasive when it is based on an experience of suffering and humiliation, transmuted wisely - as did Charles - in a quiver of arrows that hit, without delay, the living of many issues.

For him, the internet is an exceptional means - and not an end - to increase its assets in cash and in friendships. Sensitive
the results, both the cuffs and all, clear on his blog Jobs Casa.com

What Is A Normal Catering Cost For 150 People

And 'water the new oil? Jet set to cost more than a barrel of black gold!

The conference, International Water Day in Istanbul looks at the sustainable management of fresh water.
The conference recognizes water as a human need of all: people can live 30 days without food but only a week without water. How can a person live without oil?
Over one billion people lack access to clean water, and 2 and a half billion are without water for hygienic use, and 80% of diseases are caused by dirty water.
It might seem ironic, given that the Earth is truly a blue planet, seen from space, largely covered by water. But what humans need is fresh, clean water, and most instead of the water on Earth is salty and dirty.
What is clear, at this year's World Water Forum in Istanbul, is the notion that the availability of clean, fresh water is decreasing due to global warming.
This is why the jet set in Rome, reastaurant exclusive, so he wants to be called questionable on the local pond of EUR priced a bottle of water S. Benedict of 3 / 4 of a liter, although in the pack of glass, as many as 10 €.
This is because the water is good for all ...

DEFEND OUR FUTURE: SAY NO BRIDGE


this morning, the portal www.virgilio.it the article below that raise awareness public about a year each.



Ponte, the eighth wonder of the world phoenix
starts again the lure of the construction of the Great Work that has divided politicians, environmentalists, intellectuals. Already spent 160 million euro for the Stretto di Messina

intentions of its proponents in the span of only three kilometers linking the "Continent" to Sicily will be the eighth wonder of the world. It has been been allocated one billion three hundred million Fas funds (Fund underdeveloped areas) to share the final design work. Mai no infrastructure has been so mistreated. The Bridge on the Strait of Messina exists only on maps, yet the Stretto di Messina (bandwagon kept alive thanks to the votes in the last term determinants of Antonio Di Pietro) advice and pays salaries of gold - according to some calculations - have already spent 150 million to 160 million euro ( 93.33 of which dissipated over the last 6 years). Peanuts, compared to 6 billion and an 36 million euro, the realization of which will be entrusted to a consortium of companies, in which Impregilo does the lion's share with 45%.
Not long ago it was learned that the design solution of the colossus of concrete that would reduce the thirty minute trip on a ferry that separates Villa San Giovanni and Messina - disputed by environmentalists because it does not cover key issues such as movements of the sirocco wind and seismic conditions - has been prepared in part by hand on sheets of notebook paper, in spite of the ultra modern models and simulations in three dimensions.

Ponte
According to favor the bridge would give enormous visibility interactional. Would be for his majesty unique tourist attraction. Give breath to the local economy particularly lifeless, with a series of positive externalities by promoting the recruitment of local workers for many years, led by a significant effect on the food, service between the two sides.

Bridge
no environmental impact at the deturperà profiles of the coast of one of the most beautiful in the world hotspot, a region that also has two seismic faults in constant motion. Only in Calabria is volatile, with excavations, more than four million cubic meters of earth and rock, in a place where "undertakings" in the odor of the Mafia are specialized in their construction (as shown by the investigations of the Anti-Mafia Investigation Directorate ). In light of the disastrous road conditions, the priorities for the modernization of the road system would others. It would be a dis-economy and accounts for yet another white elephant.

Camera bureaucratic procedures to revive the pharaonic infrastructure - will spend at least 70 months before the first stone at all - another casting controversy are coming, are absolutely indispensable, between Scylla and Charybdis.

What Gauge Are Big Safety Pins?

Every legend has a grain of truth

yahoo homepage, with an article by Emanuela Grasso, the headline this morning: WHO WINS IN LOVE AWAY.

In Love conquers who flees! How true. Escape, chase and be, above all, be courted. Grant and allow yourself time to learn about a person: This is one of the secrets to choosing the right partner. The courtship is a "technical" selected by evolution to allow time for the male to show the woman all his qualities and to give women the opportunity to evaluate and choose. Nothing so strange: the animal kingdom is full of dances, calls, gestures of courtship to the time of the female. The man, as animal, is no exception and now provides a group of scientists from University College London who created a mathematical model, using game theory, to reiterate what Darwin postulated 150 years ago. The research will be published in the next issue of the Journal of Theoretical Biology.

The game on which mathematicians have also thought consists of a group of women to judge the "profile" of a man and classify it, a bit 'as it was on the blackboard in elementary school, good or bad. Obviously the quality of goodness is manifested in the character affable, in sympathy, ability to listen to others, in acting so as not to harm others and all the other virtues possible and imaginable. The quality of the bad ones are from cliché: excessive aggressiveness, arrogance, tendency to abuse, corruptibility, and so on and so forth. Women win the game if they can identify the personality of the "types" that humans are submitted to them. They have little time to respond but may ask questions to the party to try to get much information as possible and judge correctly.

Needless to say, haste is a bad counselor: women who have spent little time analyzing the male profile and have relied more on instinct have committed more errors in judging. The value of time to be discovered: no to speed date, no sudden the choice of a mate. Give him time and make him a show, like the peacock, all his beautiful colorful tail. After that, give yourself time to decide if it is "fake" or not.
