How to choose a goal?
How can you figure out where to go if you need to reach the top, but you don’t know where it is because your eyes are covered? The answer is simple. You should go where it’s harder. That means you’re heading uphill. And where it’s easier—on the contrary, it’s downhill. Continue Reading
Where is the justice?
Emotionally indiscriminate people often perceive feelings of envy as a sense of injustice.

Black Sea sabre-toothed fish
A pioneer camp in Crimea on the southern coast. It’s the largest after Artek and some camp called Orlyonok, but those are more like “multi-camps,” while this one is a “mega-camp.” There are a lot of people—up to 16 groups of 40 to 50 kids, totaling around 700 to 800. Continue Reading
