How to Find Your Purpose and Do What You Love by Maria Popova Why prestige is the enemy of passion, or how to master the balance of setting boundaries and making friends. “Find something more important than you are,” philosopher Dan Dennett once said in discussing the secret of happiness, “and dedicate your life to it.” But how, exactly, do we find that? Every few months, I rediscover and redevour Y-Combinator founder Paul Graham’s fantastic 2006 article, How to Do What You Love. What you should not do, I think, is worry about the opinion of anyone beyond your friends. More of Graham’s wisdom on how to find meaning and make wealth can be found in Hackers & Painters: Big Ideas from the Computer Age. Alain de Botton, modern philosopher and creator of the “literary self-help genre”, is a keen observer of the paradoxes and delusions of our cultural conceits. In The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work, he takes his singular lens of wit and wisdom to the modern workplace and the ideological fallacies of “success.” 16. 28. This is your life.
The Most-viewed YouTube Videos of All Time YouTube’s most popular videos aren’t the same as they were in years past. Videos considered viral back then wouldn’t necessarily be as popular now. And while videos like Charlie Bit My Finger or Chocolate Rain went viral during the first five years of YouTube’s most viewed content, popular musicians like Katy Perry and Maroon 5 currently dominate the list. Music videos are now the most popular videos ever viewed in YouTube’s history. Younger generations of web users clearly view YouTube as the most trusted media platform in the world. 10. Katy Perry continues to hold her Top 10 reign as Roar maintains its popularity. As the oldest music video on our list other than Gangnam Style, Roar apparently has real staying power and should continue to be one of the world’s most viewed YouTube videos for some time to come. 9. You wouldn’t expect a music video loosely based on 2005’s romantic comedy Wedding Crashers to be a mega-hit, but that’s exactly what happened with Maroon 5’s Sugar. 8. 7. 6.

The Ultimate Social Media Holiday Calendar for 2017 [Resource] Whether it's International Cat Day, Pizza Day, or Talk Like a Pirate Day, it seems like almost every day, the internet is celebrating a holiday. Whenever I log onto Twitter, I quickly scan what's trending on the left-hand side of the screen. Have you ever had this experience -- when you see an obscure holiday or observance day trending, and you think to yourself "Yup, I'm celebrating that"? Manage and plan your social media content with the help of this free calendar template. Some of these holidays might be simply too silly for your brand to engage with (and we certainly don't suggest sharing content on social media and then tacking on a completely irrelevant hashtag for the sake of traffic -- that's just plain annoying). From food to politics to animals and everything in between, there is a plethora of observance days worldwide during which marketers can share content relevant to their industries, get involved in a movement, or simply generate more awareness.

Four Temperaments Test This is an interactive personality test of the "Four Temperaments", an idea from Ancient Greek medicine. Background The idea of the four temperaments traces back to an Ancient Greek medical theory that there were four fundamental bodily humors (blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm) which could cause illness if they were out of balance. The terms sanguine, choleric, melancholic and phlegmatic were coined by the Greek physician Aelius Galenus to describe the effect of these humors on human behavior. This idea is perhaps one of the oldest that looks like a theory of personality. The OSPP Four Temperaments Scale (O4TS) is a free and open-source measure designed to match the taker to one of the four temperaments. Test Instructions The test has 24 statements of opinion that you must rate on a five point scale of how much you agree with each. Use and Participation This test is provided for educational and entertainment use only.

Benedict Drew’s anxious-making new film An image of sunlight glinting off rolling waves flickers between the two screens, alternating almost stroboscopically with a black frame. A rural scene on an overcast day is rudely interrupted by a sudden camera lurch into a clutch of votive candles, their flames twitching and dancing in the breeze. A close-up of a man’s forehead with the words ‘Inside it’s all a mess’ in triplicate, circling round and round themselves like a nagging thought that won’t go away. Stills from The Bad Feel Loop (2019), Benedict Drew. The work is a new commission from King’s College London’s Science Gallery, which opened last year. Nevertheless, The Bad Feel Loops does not altogether shy away from analysis. ‘On Edge: Living in an Age of Anxiety’ is at the Science Gallery London until 19 January 2020.

Empowering bold discussions on anxiety A new exhibition and events season at Science Gallery London combines art, design, psychology and neuroscience to highlight positive and creative responses when dealing with anxiety. ON EDGE: Living in an Age of Anxiety reflects on individual experiences, the environmental and societal factors that can cause worry or stress and explores our evolutionary impulse to be on alert. Drawing on research from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN) at King’s College London, the season reflects the perspectives of a range of artists, scientists, young people and those with lived experience of anxiety. New commissions are included, developed by artists working in collaboration with researchers from King’s. ‘King’s College London is home to outstanding mental health research, including on the causes and effects of anxiety,’ said Professor Thalia Eley, Professor of Developmental Behavioural Genetics at King’s, and ON EDGE Season Advisor.
