Maxwell Maltz
Maxwell Maltz is the author of “Psycho-Cybernetics”. Haven’t read it? I suggest you do. Based on the power of the self-image and visualisation to achieve personal goals, Psycho-Cybernetics, first published in 1960, is the classic self-help book that inspired every self-help book published in the 85 years since. In line with “The only source of knowledge is experience(Albert Einstein)” Maxwell Maltz emphasises that personal growth must not be read, but that it must be experienced

Extraordinary
Extraordinary circumstances reveal extraordinary people. Like many of my generation, I think the time between the typewriter and the world wide web was extraordinary. The typewriter was invented 157 years ago. The world wide web, now known as internet, 36 years ago. I was invented after the typewriter and before the world wide web, 76 years ago. The time between the typewriter and the world wide web, extraordinary indeed, featured WW1 and WW2 with 40

Woman Women
Today’s post consists of a short description of 15 women that helped and help make the world a better place for women and their children regardless of gender. These 15 women — and countless others — did and do so at the risk of persecution, imprisonment, torture, and murder or any combination thereof. Not sure what this post is about? Then I suggest you read up on the catholic inquisition, which was rampant from 546

Red Cross
The Red Cross was founded 161 years ago by Henry Dunant and Gustave Moynier with a little help from their friends. When they founded the Red Cross, Henry Dunant and Gustave Moynier knew more about aiding word-users in need regardless of their nationality, race, or religion, than they knew about marketing. So, for the Red Cross branding, they simply inverted the colors of the Swiss flag… As far as they were concerned, job done, and

Charles Darwin
Charles Darwin, born 215 years ago, died 142 years ago, didn’t believe the most successful lie ever told, according to which the past is in a book. Instead of that he decided to find out what happened in the past by himself. Aged 22 he embarked on a five-year voyage on a Cherokee-class 10-gun brig-sloop named “Beagle”, after which he concluded — like yours truly, albeit for different reasons — all species descend from a

Words
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet”, said William Shakespeare some 430 years ago. Now, 430 years later, so it is with words. A word by any other word is a word. No matter what you call it, if you have aword for it, it’s a word. WORDS You are either controlled (by words). Or you are controlling (words). There is no in-between. That explains why I tell the story of words

James Frederick Ferrier
James Frederick Ferrier (born 216 years ago / died 160 years ago) was a Scottish word-user, writer, lawyer, and university professor. His wife Margaret Anne Wilson wrote under the pseudonym Christopher North. At a time when the word-user population of 1 billion (versus 9 billion today) believed everything known is in a book of more knowledge than can be known, also known as Bible, James Frederick Ferrier discovered epistemology and agnoiology — Greek English pronounced,

Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier
Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier (born 281 years ago / died 230 years ago) discovered oxygen (246 years ago) and hydrogen (241 years ago), making it the beginning of modern chemistry. He was an aristocrat and member of the Ferme générale — an operation that collected tax and duties for the king, and hefty bonus fees for themselves — which made it among the most hated of pre-French Revolution organisations. Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier played a starring role
