Quotes from my old blog
From my old blog:
Я никогда не могла понять, почему так мало людей не могут мне ответить на вопрос: “Чего ты хочешь?” Это серьезно какой-то баг в большинстве людей. Свои цели на будущее нужно осознавать предельно четко, и периодически вспоминать о них. (с) М.
“Keeping options open” often means “not being successful in anything” ((https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-decide-what-to-do-when-you-are-multitalented-and-want-to-have-all-of-it/answer/Shulamit-Widawsky))
W/o sources:
Whenever Jobs suffered a setback, it wasn’t too long before he was looking forward and thinking about what he should do next.
“What’s the point in looking back,” he told me in one email. “I’d rather look forward to all the good things to come.”- Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli, Becoming Steve Jobs
Celebrate other people’s success and you’ve accomplished, but raise the bar a little higher each time you succeed.
Refuse to accept that something is beyond your understanding. Sometimes, you have to learn a set of special codes and symbols to get at the knowledge you want. You cannot allow language acquisition, whether of spoken communication or a set of mathematical, electric, or other scientific code, to daunt you.
First find a good direction, and once you’re sure you’re going the right direction, start going faster. First be resultative, then increase productivity; Success is measured in output of value, not input of effort. + http://www.arhivstatey.ru/articles/organizer/index.html

Two kinds of self-confidence
From old blog:
date: 2016-09-19T15:36:09+00:00There are two forms of confidence: contextual — how well you can do something particular (driving, public speaking, …), and general — the confidence that no matter in which unknown situation you are thrown in, you’ll find a way. The second kind is necessary to continually try new things. (from http://highability.org/756/using-your-multipotentiality-to-grow-your-confidence/)

211120-2101 Шорох орехов
From Атомный век : Забавные истории — История Росатома:
Шорох орехов
Курчатов дал задание группе молодых ученых — составить план разработки термоядерной реакции. После нескольких дней жарких обсуждений и споров план был готов, и молодежь принесла его академику.
— Шорох орехов, — сказал Игорь Васильевич, пробежав глазами план. — Не знаете, что такое шорох орехов? Сидит грузин, торгует орехами за ту же цену, за которую их купил. «Какой смысл так торговать?» — спрашивают его. «Люблю шорох орехов!». Вот и у вас получилось то же самое.
И отправил план на доработку.
Не наш груз
В кабинете директора ядерного центра ВНИИТФ генерала Ломинского однажды раздался телефонный звонок.
— Георгий Павлович, на железнодорожной станции в Челябинске произошел мощный взрыв. Не ваш ли груз взорвался в вагоне?
— Челябинск цел?
— Цел.
— Значит, не наш.
