You don’t “succeed” because you have no weakness; you succeed because you find your unique strengths and focus on developing habits around them.
Tim Ferris


In the end, winning is sleeping better
Jodie Foster


Fasting before chemotherapy is definitely something that should be implemented in our oncology wards......Fasting essentially slows (sometime stops) rapidly dividing cells and triggers an 'energetic crisis' that makes cancer cells selectively vulnerable to chemo and radiation
Dom D'Agostino 

Globalization is an inherently deflationary force. In a globalized world, if a country experiences an idiosyncratic shock which raises domestic demand, this can be met with more imports rather than higher prices.
Peter Berezin, BCA


“People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas.”
A. Nonymous

Notes from me:

What are the big trends that the world is facing in the last 30 years?

faster discoveries and new inventions. A new scientist starts his carrier with a huge knowledge that a scientist 50 years ago didn't have.
Doing more with less
we don't need everybody to work
Deflation
specialization
less & less crime
less wars
less poverty
longer lives
a lot of free time 
a more & more clean world.
lack of purpose, some people do't contribute at all

If trade is not impaired the world will continue to march forward. That is my visium.
