Richard Feynman on government and freedom ✍️ I hope for freedom for future generations-- freedom to doubt, to develop, to continue the adventure of finding out new ways of doing things, of solving problems. We are not so smart. We are dumb. We are ignorant. We must maintain an open channel. I believe in limited government. I believe that government should be limited in many ways, and what I am going to emphasize is only an intellectual thing. ... No government has the right to decide on the truth of scientific principles, nor to prescribe in any way the character of the questions investigated. Neither may a government determine the aesthetic value of artistic creations, nor limit the forms of literary or artistic expression. Nor should it pronounce on the validity of economic, historic, religious, or philosophical doctrines. Instead it has a dutv to its citizens to maintain freedom, to let those citizens contribute to the further adventure and the development of the human race.

Researchers at MIT have questioned whether SMART goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound) actually work. They suggest we might get better outcomes if we make our goals FAST (frequently discussed, ambitious, specific and transparent) not SMART.

"Pienso que es necesario educar a las nuevas generaciones en el valor de la derrota. En no ser un trepador social. Ante este mundo de ganadores vulgares y deshonestos, de prevaricadores falsos, ante esta antropología del ganador de lejos prefiero al que pierde". #Pasolini, en el aniversario de su nacimiento tal día como hoy de 1922.
