When we think of something worthless the mind might turn to a simple rock. Crude and unfashioned, you can find some variation of this object almost anywhere across the entirety of the world. In fact, the only level to which your average stone is considered noteworthy is in how un-noteworthy it is. We toss them, we step on them, and we kick them, usually without a second thought.

- About Me:
- I am grateful to be alive.
I live comfortably in the fact that I know nothing.
and I am always curious to hear what others can teach me.
My goal is to help each and every person reach a state of bliss, it won't happen, but I'm okay with that. I'll just give it my best shot and enjoy the ride.
Peace!
- Favorite music:
- Theres incredible music in all genres, you just need to know how to look for it... I most commonly listen to artists such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stevie Wonder, Living Colour, Led Zeppelin, Paco De Lucia, Flight of the Conchords, etc...
- Favorite movies:
- Fight Club, Inception, Pulp Fiction, The Matrix Trilogy, Kung Fu Panda (first and second), Black Swan, The Lord of the Rings, Blade Runner, Iron Man 1 and 2, Sherlock Holmes, Robinhood Men in Tights, V for Vendetta, The Dark Knight... ETC
- Favorite books:
- The Way of the Peaceful Warrior, Conquest of the Mind, The Fabric of the Cosmos: Time and the Texture of Reality, Tao of Pooh, The Belgariad, The Lord of the Rings, etc...
- Goals/Projects/Aspirations:
- I love Martial Arts, I hope to compete in amateur or perhaps semi-professional mma promotions at some point. Just something I'd love to do for a bit.
I love music! I love singing, playing guitar, and cello.
I love soccer. Its awesome.
I love Chess. Also awesome.
I am trying to reach a state of near perfect happiness, if it is possible. I want to uncover the science of how to live a life of joy and subjective success and I see IPower as a great tool for this.
I am a positive psychology major, but I also have a love neurology and really my interest is bringing the two fields together.
I am planning out the logistics and finances of a skydiving career in hopes this will give me a greater ability to do world travel and learn about other cultures as well as make money teaching people to jump out of the sky. I dunno, sounds pretty cool to me.
In the end, what I really want is to help create a culture in which self-actualization, open mindedness, and critical thought are the tenants for child development. Psychological research I've read suggest that happier people with larger, more stable self-esteems are not only more altruistic, but more motivated as well. If our society focused on this, I don't know, perhaps we'd see long lasting change.
That leads me to what I want to do in my 30's and beyond. Write books, teach, do seminars, and travel.
Thats all folks!

Bardasu Florin replied to SparTom007 - Tom's discussion Why I argue so "aggressively" | Distorted views can kill | Teenager kills herself after researching 2012 doomsday theories" From the beginning of the human kind, fear was necessary to keep us alive and avoid certain dangers lions, bigger monkeys, ecc. so is well preserved in our brains because we can't compair 500 years of so called evolution with two…"
Timo Kerremans replied to Tim Young's discussion Capitalism and profit"Yes I agree with that, a global change in the state of mind.I think if every single person in the world has an enormous feeling for solidarity, it is possible to create a working system where money would be obsolete. This unfortunatly is an utopian…"
Tim Young replied to Tim Young's discussion Capitalism and profit"I believe an entirely new paradigm is required. A global mindset shift away from the notion of "profit" and towards co-existence within a cooperative framework."
Timo Kerremans replied to Tim Young's discussion Capitalism and profit"What might be a solution for this profit-based society?They say money can solve a lot of problems, but these problems are mostly created by the bad use of money. I think you can't solve problems with the same thing that caused them. "
Tim Young replied to Bart Skraeling's discussion dealing with trolls"Yes that's similar to the usual advice one might see. And most of it is good advice. The only problem I have is with the "ignoring". Good in theory but in practice not always that easy - especially with the more persistent…"

Tim Young replied to Bart Skraeling's discussion dealing with trolls"Yes well, you could speculate forever as to the why. But how will you ever know the real truth - unless you get some actual trolls to fess up. I am guessing honesty is not their strongest suit.
I would also suggest that most of them probably…"

Tim Young replied to Bart Skraeling's discussion dealing with trolls"The moment you let a troll get under your skin and you react with anger or similar - then they are getting exactly what they want.
So anything BUT getting angry or pissed off with them works a lot better.
Sarcasm can work well. Like commenting…"

yesterday it was the eurovision song contest.I went into a newspapers internett site (dagbladet if anyone is interested) and saw they had a forum for discussing the results (the results where coming in at the time). much of the forum was covered with the comments of two people, both trolls, one in norwegian and one in english. they where claiming that norway lost because we sent an immigrant to the finals (the guy was born in Iran but came to norway when he was just over 1 yrs old), and other…See More
