September hunt

A collection of pictures based upon a list I invented :) Each project takes one month. The task is to find pictures as creative as possible ... every day thinking and searching for the idea that brings the project to a completion. The pictures are being taken by mckatalyn (as is his task to finish the project ;))

The Marshmallow Test

In this reprise of a now-classic Stanford psychological experiment from the 1960s, kids are put in a room with a marshmallow and told they can either eat it immediately or wait until the researcher gets back, and they'll be given a second marshmallow. Hilarity ensues as the kids suffer marshmallow temptation!

Oh, The Temptation from Steve V on Vimeo.



But the consequences go deeper: In the New Yorker article "Don’t!" from May that detailed the very same experiment, it turned out that the ones who passed the marshmallow test enjoyed greater success as adults. Said Walter Mischel, the Stanford professor of psychology in charge of the experiment, "What we’re really measuring with the marshmallows isn’t will power or self-control... It’s much more important than that. This task forces kids to find a way to make the situation work for them. They want the second marshmallow, but how can they get it? We can’t control the world, but we can control how we think about it.” read more

Sa zambim impreuna – Daruieste un zambet

S-a initiat campania "ZAMBESTE! e gratis" prin care putem aduce un zambet pe buzele tuturor.

V-ati intrebat vreodata ce se inmulteste fara sa platiti?

ZAMBETUL!

Daca ii zambesti cuiva, te ASIGUR ca iti va zambi inapoi. Fac acest exercitiu zilnic:

- ii zambesc partenului cand ma trezesc
- ii zambesc vecinului
- zambesc femeii de serviciu
- zambesc oamenilor pe strada
- zambesc oricui intalnesc, chiar si mie in oglinda :)

Incercati si voi si veti vedea ca lumea va zambeste inapoi. Este un pas mic dar sunt sigura ca merita.

Saptamana asta (21 – 27 Septembrie 2009), cei de la www.lumebuna.ro au lansat o initiativa la care subscriu :) citeste mai multe dand clic pe zambesc.lumebuna.ro.

Se impart zambete saptamana asta, tuturor persoanelor pe care le intalnesti.

Ce inseamna sa daruim un zambet?
Pe o bucatica de hartie vom desena un smile si vom scrie “Un zambet pentru tine”.
Aceasta bucatica de hartie o vom oferi persoanelor din locatiile respective impreuna binenteles cu zambetul nostru propriu :)
