recomendo
CURY, Augusto O Mestre da Sensibilidade, Academia de Inteligência, 2000
terminei o livro e recomendo
p.104 "Não há pessoas desinteligentes, mas pessoas que não sabem ser um aprendiz."
p.113 "Precisamos aprender a penetrar no mundo das pessoas. A arte de ouvir deveria fazer parte de nossa rotina de vida. Todavia, pouco a desenvolvemos. Somos ótimos para julgar e apontar o dedo para a falha dos outros, mas péssimos para ouví-los e acolhê-los. Para desenvolver a arte de ouvir é preciso ter sensibilidade (e ao ouvir desenvolvemos a nossa sensibilidade-é um ciclo), é preciso ouvir aquilo que as palavras não dizem, é preciso escutar o silencio..."
p.118 "O stress intenso rouba energia do córtex cerebral, energia esta que será usada nos orgãos de economia do corpo, por exemplo, a musculatura. O resultado desse roubo de energia é um cansaço físico exagerado e inexplicável", Grande parte das pessoas ansiosas e deprimidas ou que tem trabalho intelectual intenso vive essa sintomatologia. Por pensarem e se estressarem muito, estão sempre roubando energia do cérebro, por isso estão continuamente fatigados e não sabem o motivo. Não fizeram exercício físico, mas estão sem energia. Quando a fadiga é intensa, gera-se uma sonolência, que é um recurso de defesa cerebral, pois dormindo repomos a energia biopsíquica."
p.119 "Muitos de nós somos intolerantes quando as pessoas nos frustam. Não toleramos seus erros, Não aceitamos suas dificuldades nem a lentidão de aprender determinadas lições. Esgotamos nossa paciência quando os comportamentos delas não correspondem às nossas expectativas..."

hello there
Don’t let anyone deter you from any personal or professional goals, no matter how lofty or grandiose they are.
i have tons of new years resolutions.

fragments
I´m reading "Letters to a Young Poet" by Rainer Maria Rilke and have been recording the parts that, at the moment, seem most relevant to me.
"...finally I want to add just one more bit of advice: to keep growing,
silently and earnestly, through your while development; you couldn’t disturb it
any more violently than by looking outside and waiting for outside answers to
question that only your innermost feeling, in your quietest hour, can perhaps
answer."
“Being an artist means: not numbering and counting, but ripening
like a tree, which doesn’t force its sap, and stands confidently in the storms of
spring, not afraid that afterward summer may not come. It does come. But it
comes only to those who are patient, who are there as if eternity lay before them, so unconcernedly silent and vast.”
“But that is one of the most difficult tests for the creator: he must
always remain unconscious, unaware of his best virtues, if he doesn’t want to rob
them of their candor and innocence!”
“If you trust in Nature, in the small Things that hardly anyone sees and that can so suddenly become huge, immeasurable; if you have this love for what is humble and try very simply, as someone who serves, to win the confidence of what seems poor: then
everything will become easier for you, more coherent and somehow more
reconciling, not in your conscious mind perhaps, which stays behind, astonished,
but in your innermost awareness, awakeness, and knowledge. You are so young,
so much before all beginning, and I would like to beg you, dear Sir, as well as I can, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love
the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very
foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you
now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live
everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you
will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer. Perhaps
you do carry within you the possibility of creating and forming, as an especially
blessed and pure way of living; train your for that — but take whatever comes,
with great trust, and as long as it comes out of your will, out of some need of
your innermost self, then take it upon yourself, and don’t hate anything.”
“Therefore, dear Sir, love your solitude and try to sing out with the pain it causes you. for those who are near you are far away, you write, and this shows that the space around you is beginning to grow vast. And if what is near you is far away, then your vastness is already among the stars and is very great; be happy about your growth, in which of course you can’t take anyone with you, and be gentle with those who stay behind; be confident and calm in front of them and don’t torment them with your doubts and don’t frighten them with your faith or joy, which they wouldn’t be able to comprehend.”

Found Books
Found this great website with a bunch of free downloads: AvaxHome
I downloaded a few books:
The paper engineering one was accidental, i was attracted by the cover, i have never thought about doing pop up. But i plan to explore areas im not interested in because for sure i will be fascinated with something about it. I've been encouraged to do that by Keri Smith's words: read a book you don't think you will like. I don't know if the pop up book can be applied, because im actually interested. But there are plenty i dont find interesting so i plan on exploring the uninteresting more often.
The first book was photographed by hand so the quality is horrible. It's readable but its so obvious that it wasnt scanned that its distracting. It's kind of ironic, a book about design having such a poor presentation. The cost you pay for downloading free books.

Library Books Weekend
"Cada artista, cada leitor terá provavelmente seu próprio repertório de concidências, ou talvez até mesmo de erros cometidos que se transfomaram em acertos. Constituem sempre eventos imprevistos e surpreendentes. No entanto, parecem ocorrer num momento exato de vida, momento por vezes decisivo na realização de certos objetivos.
...
Antes de mais nada, há o grande ACASO na vida de cada pessoa, que é a sua próproa existênica. É a personalidade da pessoa: na constelação de certas potencialidades, certas predisposições vitais diante do viver, certos dotes e inclinações, seu ânimo e também suas atividades de caráter. Nesta unicidade de cada pessoa há o acaso existencial (por que Mozart e não Salieri?). Mas é um acaso que irá se converter em contexto de NECESSIDADE para o indivíduo, pois suas potencialidades representarão forças inelutáveis, de cuja realização ele não poderá fugir sob pena de se sentir aniquilado em seu íntimo ser. São estas potencialidades inatas de cada um, que geram os impulsos poderosos a mover o indivíduo a vida inteira, numa busa de realização que se entreleça com a busca de sua própria identidade."

Books and Such
I'm picking up this habit of downloading every book i want to read. I told myself i would read more this year, so i started a list of books that interest me. This was last week, there are already 10 titles on my list and so far i've read the first chapter of the first book. I'm so curious about them all, but i realized the hardest part about reading is not finding an interesting book, or buying/downloading it, its the actual act of reading. I downloaded this book called The Unbearable Lightness of Being, it starts out great. Im on page 10, around there, and its getting a bit scary. I have never come in contact with characters such as these. And theyre thrown at me so violently, everytime i start reading i feel a bit of anxiety, and i think, what an amazing writer................really, or is it just me? I'm not sure.
