Gratitude.

I believe this is somewhat thought-provoking... How is one grateful? According to this- a reflection about death and loss can help one appreciate the present small pleasures whatever they may be... A use of imagination of the future to improve the present.

Procrastination an issue? Not that this might solve it- that's up to you, :p But even if the video wouldn't sort it out and even if it's not an issue for you personally- I think the video gives a good angle on procrastination and why we do so...

Enjoy, and Goodnight :)

Heard of the Stoics? Wonder what they're about?
It's pretty interesting stuff in my opinion!

Why some countries are poor and others rich.

Are we not lucky to be where we are? It sucks a little less thinking about your country when one knows that there's someone else in a much more corrupt country that suffers more than you...

This is pretty harrowing to me somehow- but the reminder is useful. (I wonder what people here 'remind' themselves of...)

Be Kind.

These School of Life lessons are pretty good introductions, I use them in several of my undergraduate classes.

I wish they would made some more.

(By the way, Heidegger's philosophy of art is my dissertation topic.)

I don't mean to put up a certain number of these videos (say... a hundred?) but as far as I'm aware- no one's complaining about it so I'll keep putting up the occasional one which might be of interest or a reminder to something one already 'knows'.

A very interesting explanation for BAD TASTE.
