The most common mistake people make is <a href="https://www.inc.com/peter-economy/9-ways-amazing-leaders-demonstrate-real-authenticity-every-day.html">to confuse their self-worth with their accomplishments.</a>

Never confuse who you are with what you do

What you say to yourself matters more than what the entire world together says about you.

Master your inner dialogue

When the storms of life start tossing you around like a toy, you need an anchor--something you can cling to when all seems hopeless.

Learn to live in the moment

Find the handful of people who will support you no matter what, invest your time and energy in strengthening those relationships.

Fortify your village, then build a moat

The time to "hurricane proof" your life isn't when the shingles start to fly off the roof, but when the sky is still blue and sunny."Work on your self-image, inner dialogue, present-moment awareness, and key relationships now."

Be prepared, be prepared, be prepared

It's so easy to forget how you can maintain your mental health.  That's why I like these short bits of inspirational reminders.

Want to Build Unbeatable Mental Toughness? Here Are 5 Surprisingly Effective Ways

50% of a person’s happiness is determined by their genetic makeup, researchers discovered. A new study considers the roles both nature and nurture play in a person’s happiness.

Nature & Nurture

The self-help industry is booming, fuelled by research on positive psychology – the scientific study of what makes people flourish. At the same time, the rates of anxiety, depression and self-harm continue to soar worldwide. So are we doomed to be unhappy, despite these advances in psychology?

Doomed To Be Unhappy?

According to an <a href="http://sonjalyubomirsky.com/wp-content/themes/sonjalyubomirsky/papers/LSS2005.pdf">influential article</a> published in Review of General Psychology in 2005, 50% of people’s happiness is determined by their genes, 10% depends on their circumstances and 40% on “intentional activity” (mainly, whether you’re positive or not). This so-called happiness pie put positive-psychology acolytes in the driving seat, allowing them to decide on their happiness trajectory. (Although, the unspoken message is that if you are unhappy, it’s your own fault.)

Why Some People Find It Harder to Be Happy - Neuroscience News

In 1967 a 49-year-old man went missing in Osaka. According to the family of the missing man, after the great changes in Japan he was unable to find his way in the dynamically developing society. There were many rumours about the missing man's alleged debts to usurers. The investigation into his disappearance was closed after 19 hours by the police and resumed a decade later without any results.

Ed Batista, a Stanford Graduate School of Business lecturer, has worked with many executives in his career and the one problem that is most evident to him is that many executives and CEOs experience people problems.

People Problems

The hell of life is that everyone has their reasons

We often find ourselves assuming about the reasons why people behave the way they behave but we fail to ask "why do I find their behavior maddening or frustrating?"  We have to slow down and remind ourselves that everyone has their own reasons for their behavior and as leaders we must allow ourselves to empathize and learn if there is something we can do about it.

Mitigating Assumption in People's Behavior

Here are some questions you can use to explore about a person's behavior:<ul><li>What are their beliefs and assumptions? Can I allow that information to inform how I approach them?</li><li>Can I take a broader perspective on what might be driving them? What impulses or reasoning might be informing their behavior?</li><li>Am I creating a condition that they are finding the need to adapt to that I might find frustrating?</li><li>Is there something I can do to change how I'm showing up and influence the environment in which this other person is operating?</li></ul>

Real Shaolin Monk Answers Web's Most Searched Questions

Emotional baggage is a term used to describe a phenomenon whereby one carries past trauma, negative experiences, and feelings through their life. This can negatively affect you as you move through careers, relationships, and general life decisions. Even once you unpack your baggage, the work isn’t done! You must constantly apply new, positive methods to ensure that baggage doesn’t build up again. It’s an uphill battle at times, but it’s very worth it. If you want a purposeful life that is meaningful and fulfilling, letting go of emotional baggage and healing their trauma is the best way to go!

Control Over Emotions Is Real Wisdom.

Getting ahead in life, towards an objective and purpose usually is confronted with obstacles. Wisdom allows the wit to overcome and go ahead.

A more purposeful life comes only after you learn how to let go of the emotional baggage that you pick up along your journey.

4 Things to Let Go for a Purposeful Life

Could AI turn on us, or is natural stupidity a greater threat to humanity?Ever since Garry Kasparov lost his second chess match against IBM’s Deep Blue in 1997, the writing has been on the wall for humanity. Or so some like to think. Advances in artificial intelligence will lead – by some estimates, in only a few decades – to the development of superintelligent, sentient machines. Movies from The Terminator to The Matrix have portrayed this prospect as rather undesirable. But is this anything more than yet another sci-fi “Project Fear”?

Stupidity or Threat?

Some confusion is caused by two very different uses of the phrase artificial intelligence. The first sense is, essentially, a marketing one: anything computer software does that seems clever or usefully responsive – like Siri – is said to use “AI”. The second sense, from which the first borrows its glamour, points to a future that does not yet exist, of machines with superhuman intellects. That is sometimes called AGI, for artificial general intelligence.

Two Senses of AI

How do we get there from here, if we want to? Modern AI employs machine learning/deep learning: rather than programming rules into the machine directly we allow it to learn by itself. In this way, AlphaZero, the chess-playing entity created by the British firm Deepmind (part of Google), played millions of training matches against itself and then trounced its top competitor. More recently, Deepmind’s AlphaFold 2 was greeted as an important milestone in the biological field of “protein-folding”, or predicting the exact shapes of molecular structures, which might help to design better drugs.

Machine learning/Deep learning

Machine learning works by training the machine on vast quantities of data – pictures for image-recognition systems, or terabytes of prose taken from the internet for bots that generate semi-plausible essays, such as GPT2. But datasets are not simply neutral repositories of information; they often encode human biases in unforeseen ways. Recently, Facebook’s news feed algorithm asked users who saw a news video featuring black men if they wanted to “keep seeing videos about primates”

Human Biases

So-called “AI” is already being used in several US states to predict whether candidates for parole will reoffend, with critics claiming that the data the algorithms are trained on reflects historical bias in policing. Computerised systems (as in aircraft autopilots) can be a boon to humans, so the flaws of existing “AI” aren’t in themselves arguments against the principle of designing intelligent systems to help us in fields such as medical diagnosis.

AI Already Used

The more challenging sociological problem is that adoption of algorithm-driven judgments is a tempting means of passing the buck, so that no blame attaches to the humans in charge – be they judges, doctors or tech entrepreneurs.

Challenging Problems

Will robots take all the jobs? That very framing passes the buck because the real question is whether managers will fire all the humans. The existential problem, meanwhile, is this: if computers do eventually acquire some kind of god‑level self-aware intelligence – something that is explicitly in Deepmind’s mission statement, for one (“our long-term aim is to solve intelligence” and build an AGI) – will they still be as keen to be of service? If we build something so powerful, we had better be confident it will not turn on us.

Robots Take All The Jobs 

For the people seriously concerned about this, the argument goes that since this is a potentially extinction-level problem, we should devote resources now to combating it. The philosopher Nick Bostrom, who heads the Future of Humanity Institute at the University of Oxford, says that humans trying to build AI are “like children playing with a bomb”, and that the prospect of machine sentience is a greater threat to humanity than global heating.

Playing With a Bomb

His 2014 book Superintelligence is seminal. A real AI, it suggests, might secretly manufacture nerve gas or nanobots to destroy its inferior, meat-based makers. Or it might just keep us in a planetary zoo while it gets on with whatever its real business is.AI wouldn’t have to be actively malicious to cause catastrophe. This is illustrated by Bostrom’s famous “paperclip problem”. Suppose you tell the AI to make paperclips. What could be more boring? Unfortunately, you forgot to tell it when to stop making paperclips.

Superintelligence

So it turns all the matter on Earth into paperclips, having first disabled its off switch because allowing itself to be turned off would stop it pursuing its noble goal of making paperclips. That’s an example of the general “problem of control”, subject of AI pioneer Stuart Russell’s excellent Human Compatible: AI and the Problem of Control, which argues that it is impossible to fully specify any goal we might give a superintelligent machine so as to prevent such disastrous misunderstandings. I

The Problem of Control

In his Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence, meanwhile, the physicist Max Tegmark, co-founder of the Future of Life Institute (it’s cool to have a future-of-something institute these days), emphasises the problem of “value alignment” – how to ensure the machine’s values line up with ours. This too might be an insoluble problem, given that thousands of years of moral philosophy have not been sufficient for humanity to agree on what “our values” really are.

Being Human

Other observers, though, remain phlegmatic. In Novacene, the maverick scientist and Gaia theorist James Lovelock argues that humans should simply be joyful if we can usher in intelligent machines as the logical next stage of evolution, and then bow out gracefully once we have rendered ourselves obsolete.

Humans Be Joyful

In her recent 12 Bytes, Jeanette Winterson is refreshingly optimistic, supposing that any future AI will be at least “unmotivated by the greed and land-grab, the status-seeking and the violence that characterises Homo sapiens”. As the computer scientist Drew McDermott suggested in a paper as long ago as 1976, perhaps after all we have less to fear from artificial intelligence than from natural stupidity.

Natural Stupidity

Could AI turn on us, or is natural stupidity a greater threat to humanity?

The big idea: Should we worry about artificial intelligence?

Here are ten things I do in the morning to make sure I have a better day – give it a shot, and you may just find yourself one step closer to feeling like a Certified Morning Person.

I know you’ve heard this a million times, but it really does make things harder. I have a much harder time waking up and feeling awake all day if I hit the snooze button on my alarm in the morning. Get up after one alarm and let yourself slowly adjust to being human again, but don’t go back to sleep – it just confuses the hell out of your body.

1. Actually don't hit snooze

You’ll thank yourself when you come home to a hot meal at the end of your long day, and thankfully, most crock-pot meals aren’t too difficult to throw together in a few minutes in the morning.

2. Put something in the slow 

True that you can do them when you get home from work, but will you want to? No. The answer is a hard no.

3. Do your dishes after breakfast.

Let it chill in there all day, then pop some coffee ice cubes in it when you hit your afternoon slump for a little pick-me-up.

4. Put your coffee leftovers in the fridge.

I know we spend a lot of time on TFD talking people out of buying pricey work lunches because it is something people are often guilty of, but to be honest, I personally get way more excited when I know I’ve packed my own little lunch that I can eat whenever I want without having to go into the outside world, seek out food, and purchase it. Put last night’s leftovers into a Tupperware container or simply throw an apple and a sleeve of Ritz crackers in your bag. Anything that gets you jazzed up works.

5. Pack yourself a little lunch.

Know of anything you’ll need at-the-ready tomorrow morning? Put it out now so you don’t have to worry about it when you get home. It’ll be one less thing for you to worry about preparing after you return from a long day at work.

6. Think ahead to tomorrow.

Working out in the morning (if you can make the time) is one of the best things you can do for your day. I’ve struggled between figuring if I would be a morning-gym-person or an afternoon/evening-gym-person before realizing and accepting that I’m just not someone who feels like working out regardless of the time of day. So I stick to doing it in the morning, because at least I have the added bonus of feeling like a healthful, accomplished badass all day post-workout.

7. Do something kind for your body.

Because it is, again, one less thing for you to do at night, and it helps you wake up and feel more energized even if you’re moping around and not wanting to go to work. I’ve tried being both a “night-shower-person” and a “morning-shower-person” before, and morning always wins. It is essentially the only way to truly wake me up and get me ready for the day, and I cannot stress how much worse I feel all day if I don’t get a chance to shower in the morning.

8. Shower.

I’m always tempted to shed my pajamas and toss them on the floor when I get dressed in the morning, but picking everything up and putting it in its proper place always makes me feel so much better. I hate coming home to clothes thrown on the floor – I’d rather take the extra few minutes to pick up after myself when I’m rushing around in the morning than deal with it all when I get home later in the day.

9. Pick up around the house.

Spend a few minutes going over your master to-do list, and picking the few items on it that are going to be prioritized today, and loosely sequencing them. Your day will be so much better and go much more smoothly if you start off in the morning with a solid idea and loose timeline of what you’ll be accomplishing during the day (once you’ve finished your coffee, of course).Mary writes every day for TFD, and <a href="https://twitter.com/mawyalyssa">tweets </a>every day for her own personal fulfillment.
