Intelligent trees

Trees talk, know family ties and care for their young? Is this too fantastic to be true? German forester Peter Wohlleben ('The Hidden Life of Trees') and scientist Suzanne Simard (The University of British Columbia, Canada) have been observing and investigating the communication between trees over decades. And their findings are most astounding.

Trees are so much more than rows of wood waiting  to be turned into furniture, buildings or firewood. They are more than organisms producing oxygen or cleaning the air for us. They are individual beings that have feelings, know friendship have a common language and look after each other. This documentary explores the various ways that trees communicate with each other- from a forester's observations as well as through the microscope of a scientist.

If the themes of harmony, connection, and collaboration between humans and trees in the movie Avatar inspired you, stand by. That fiction was inspired in part by real life trees... And scientists, as it turns out. But there's more. Much more. And it has global implications for us all (Rachel Clark, "Smart Trees teach via new Film and Bestselling Book", Psychology Today).
Together, Wohlleben and Simard are a tree dream team (Melissa Breyer, "Trees can form bonds like an old couple and look after each other ", Treehugger.com).

What Color is Your True Personality?

Dr. Carol Ritberger, a world-famous behavioral psychologist, and author, believes there are four distinct personality types in the world. These are symbolized by the colors red, orange, yellow, and green.

Understanding one’s personality is necessary for making important life decisions like what to pursue for a future career or what makes one passionate. By understanding one’s key personality traits, it is easier to understand one’s self and what makes him or her tick.

Knowing your personality and yourself is key to a happy, fulfilling life.

How to change your negative thoughts

Change your thinking - survival growth mindset

The average person has 65,000 thoughts per day. Up to 95% of these are the same thoughts as yesterday. That’s a lot of thoughts – and every single thought means an associated change in mood. So if you think something positive, you feel better and if you think something negative… you feel worse.
Many famous people throughout history have spoken on the importance of thoughts and how they can affect us and our lives. Mahatma Gandhi said:
A man is but the product of his thoughts; what he thinks, he becomes.  

What influences our thoughts?

Don’t be like everybody else - Hijacking your child's education

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=ZSRaJIMY-Ms






You gave a talk at TEDxQUT about hijacking your kids’ education. What does that mean, exactly?
I saw all these kids who had made themselves into little hoop-jumpers. All of a sudden, for seniors in high school in October, it’s, “Oh, jeez, I need to join some clubs and get my grades up, and then I’ll go to Harvard.” And then whining, “Well, I got all ‘A’s, and I joined Model U.N.” But that’s just not what it’s about. You have to make your own self remarkable. Make them say, “Wow, this couldn’t be any other child.” Don’t be like everybody else.

Dealing with toxic people is an art

  Dealing with toxic people is an art. If you want to know the best way to handle them, take it from those who are emotionally intelligent.

Life can be pretty stressful at times. We have bills, appointments, overfilled schedules, and random unfortunate events which we have no control over. Then there’s the icing on the cake…toxic people.
For many of us, we deal with toxic people on a daily basis and they can be difficult to avoid. Navigating around a toxic person or their conversations is a tedious skill, but a few people have mastered it. They are known as emotionally intelligent.
Of course, it is never easy to deal with a toxic person. Their overly dramatic attitudes, lies, and manipulation tactics can drive a person insane- if they let it. Practice and patience are two very useful tools when dealing with someone you would rather avoid, but it does get easier with time.
If you want to know how to have the upper hand when dealing with a toxic person, take it from someone who has experience.

Always Looking Up: The Adventures of an Incurable Optimist



Fifteen years after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, Michael J. Fox tells his personal story of how he turned his challenges into opportunities in his new book, "Always Looking Up: The Adventures of an Incurable Optimist." His first book, Lucky Man, documenting his career and his experience with Parkinson's disease, which, nine years after diagnosis in 1991, forced the end of his full-time acting career. Struck with Parkinson's, a debilitating, degenerative disease, at the height of his fame, Fox has taken what some might consider cause for depression and turned it into a beacon of hope for millions. Now, in Always Looking Up, he writes about the personal philosophy that carried him through his darkest hours, and speaks with others who have emerged from difficult periods with optimisms to spare.
