Calvin and Hobbes at Martijn's - Bill Watterson Here's the text of a speech Bill Watterson gave at Kenyon College, Gambier Ohio, to the 1990 graduating class. SOME THOUGHTS ON THE REAL WORLD BY ONE WHO GLIMPSED IT AND FLED Bill Watterson Kenyon College Commencement May 20, 1990 I have a recurring dream about Kenyon. In it, I'm walking to the post office on the way to my first class at the start of the school year. Suddenly it occurs to me that I don't have my schedule memorized, and I'm not sure which classes I'm taking, or where exactly I'm supposed to be going. Experience is food for the brain. In the middle of my sophomore year at Kenyon, I decided to paint a copy of Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam" from the Sistine Chapel on the ceiling of my dorm room. The picture took me months to do, and in fact, I didn't finish the work until very near the end of the school year. It's surprising how hard we'll work when the work is done just for ourselves. We're not really taught how to recreate constructively. Boy, was I smug. Bill Watterson

Max Ehrmann's "Desiderata" Max Ehrmann Desiderata Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Be yourself. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Max Ehrmann, Desiderata, Copyright 1952.

A Game of Thrones History Lesson – The Lore and History of A Song of Ice and Fire 6 Ways to Become a Well-Developed & Attractive Man – Navigating Social Relationships So I’ve been writing about very micro topics in the last couple of posts. Things like how to initiate cold-approaches, whether indirect or direct is better, and the specific caveats of approaching women from different cultures. I’ve noticed that a lot of guys get caught up in all this, and things just don’t work out in the long-run. Guys get the number and prevent flakes, but can’t keep her wanting to text back. Most notably, guys experience a slight jump in their abilities to interact with women at social gatherings, but experience little to no improvement in their current social circles. In terms of the people that they already know, they still get treated the same way, they don’t feel any different in their work-place or school. Why? Yes, learning how to cold-approach women is a VERY useful skill. Caution: Trees blocking view of forrest. The question should never have been “How can I get this girl?” It isn’t about techniques or little gambits. 1) Have Control Over Your Emotions. Why?

10 Psychology Tricks You Can Use To Influence People Before we get started, it’s important to note that none of these methods fall under what we would term the dark arts of influencing people. Anything that might be harmful to someone in any way, especially to their self esteem, is not included here. These are ways to win friends and influence people using psychology without being a jerk or making someone feel bad. Trick: Get someone to do a favor for you—also known as the Benjamin Franklin effect. Legend has it that Benjamin Franklin once wanted to win over a man who didn’t like him. Scientists decided to test this theory and found that those who were asked by the researcher for a personal favor rated the researcher much more favorably than the other groups did. Trick: Ask for way more than you want at first then scale it back later. This trick is sometimes known as the door in the face approach. Trick: Use a person’s name, or their title depending on the situation. Trick: Flattery will actually get you everywhere. Offer They Can’t Refuse
