Intelligence/Reason - This value drives me to spend a lot of time thinking as I plan carefully and do my best to make intelligent long-term decisions. I try to make decisions based on my best understanding of empirical reality instead of coming from an inaccurate paradigm. For example, I avoid beliefs such as “People are inherently good/evil” because they limit my ability to observe and understand each individual person as s/he truly is.

Everything written on the About page was helpful. The words above seemed to be very inspirational and have not read it anywhere before.

My personal problem is that, I do so many good things, but no one seems to notice it. There
are people who act and take the credit, On the other hand I cannot even take credit for good things I do. I would like you address this topic someday. I am sure many people may be having this problem.

Thanks and Regards,

Your articles/blog are great. You’re already fulfilling one of the major goals - helping people. Each lift in spirit your article gives someone should be very satisfying for you.

I’d love to see a post about the best / most inspiring personal growth books, in your opinion.

Reading books like these and articles like yours makes the whole process of sorting out my values much easier. Seriously, it feels like some of your posts are targeted towards me sometimes. B-)

I’ve been taking notes on the books I read, which also helps me sort out what I’m learning.
