1. It was a pleasure meeting you at your gallery last week.

2. I appreciate your effort to select and exhibit diverse artwork.

3. As I mentioned, I greatly admire Robert D. Parker’s paintings, which

emphasize the beauty of nature.

4. Over the past few days, I have been researching and learning about
Robert D. Parker’s online viewing room through your gallery’s website.

5. I’m especially interested in purchasing the painting that depicts the

horizon, titled Sunrise.

6. I would like to know if the piece is still available for purchase.

7. It would be a great pleasure to house this wonderful piece of art.

8. I look forward to your reply to this inquiry.

1. On opening day, Isabel arrives at the cafe very early with nervous
anticipation.

2. She looks around the cafe, but she can’t shake off the feeling that
something is missing.

3. As she sets out cups, spoons, and plates, Isabel’s doubts grow.

4. She looks around, trying to imagine what else she could do to make
the cafe perfect, but nothing comes to mind.

5. Then, in a sudden burst of inspiration, Isabel grabs her paintbrush and

transforms the blank walls into landscapes, adding flowers and trees.

6. As she paints, her doubts begin to fade.

7. Looking at her handiwork, which is beautifully done, she is certain that

the cafe will be a success.

8. ‘Now, success is not exactly guaranteed,’ she thinks to herself, ‘but I’ll
definitely get there.’

1. The more people have to do unwanted things the more chances are
that they create unpleasant environment for themselves and others.

2. If you hate the thing you do but have to do it nonetheless, you have
choice between hating the thing and accepting that it needs to be

done.

3. Either way you will do it.

4. Doing it from place of hatred will develop hatred towards the self and
others around you; doing it from the place of acceptance will create

compassion towards the self and allow for opportunities to find a

more suitable way of accomplishing the task.

5. If you decide to accept the fact that your task has to be done, start
from recognising that your situation is a gift from life; this will help

you to see it as a lesson in acceptance.

1. Everyone’s heard the expression don’t let the perfect become the
enemy of the good.

2. If you want to get over an obstacle so that your idea can become the
solution‐based policy you’ve long dreamed of, you can’t have an all‐or

‐nothing mentality.

3. You have to be willing to alter your idea and let others influence its
outcome.

4. You have to be okay with the outcome being a little different, even a
little less, than you wanted.

5. Say you’re pushing for a clean water act.

6. Even if what emerges isn’t as well‐funded as you wished, or doesn’t

match how you originally conceived the bill, you’ll have still succeeded

in ensuring that kids in troubled areas have access to clean water.

7. That’s what counts, that they will be safer because of your idea and
your effort.

8. Is it perfect? No.

Is there more work to be done? Absolutely.

9. But in almost every case, helping move the needle forward is vastly
better than not helping at all.

1. Brands that fail to grow and develop lose their relevance.

2. Think about the person you knew who was once on the fast track at
your company, who is either no longer with the firm or, worse yet,

appears to have hit a plateau in his or her career.

3. Assuming he or she did not make an ambitious move, more often

than not, this individual is a victim of having failed to stay relevant

and embrace the advances in his or her industry.

4. Think about the impact personal computing technology had on the

first wave of executive leadership exposed to the technology.

5. Those who embraced the technology were able to integrate it into

their work styles and excel.

6. Those who were resistant many times found few opportunities to

advance their careers and in many cases were ultimately let go

through early retirement for failure to stay relevant and update their

skills.

1. What consequences of eating too many grapes and other sweet fruit
could there possibly be for our brains?

2. A few large studies have helped to shed some light.

3. In one, higher fruit intake in older, cognitively healthy adults was

linked with less volume in the hippocampus.

4. This finding was unusual, since people who eat more fruit usually
display the benefits associated with a healthy diet.

5. In this study, however, the researchers isolated various components of

the subjects’ diets and found that fruit didn’t seem to be doing their

memory centers any favors.

6. Another study from the Mayo Clinic saw a similar inverse relationship
between fruit intake and volume of the cortex, the large outer layer of

the brain.

7. Researchers in the latter study noted that excessive consumption of

high‐sugar fruit (such as mangoes, bananas, and pineapples) may

cause metabolic and cognitive problems as much as processed carbs

do.

1. Winning turns on a self‐conscious awareness that others are watching.

2. It’s a lot easier to move under the radar when no one knows you and
no one is paying attention.

3. You can mess up and be rough and get dirty because no one even
knows you’re there.

4. But as soon as you start to win, and others start to notice, you’re
suddenly aware that you’re being observed.

5. You’re being judged.

6. You worry that others will discover your flaws and weaknesses, and
you start hiding your true personality, so you can be a good role

model and good citizen and a leader that others can respect.

7. There is nothing wrong with that.

8. But if you do it at the expense of being who you really are, making
decisions that please others instead of pleasing yourself, you’re not
going to be in that position very long.

9. When you start apologizing for who you are, you stop growing and

you stop winning. Permanently.

1. The above graph shows how often German children and young adults
read books in 2022 according to age groups.

2. In each age group except 12 to 13‑year‑olds, those who said they

read books once a month or less accounted for the largest proportion.

3. Of the 12 to 13‑year‑old group, 42% stated they read daily or several

times a week, which was the highest share within that group.

4. In the 16 to 17‑year‑old group, those who read between once a week

and once every two weeks were less than 20%.

5. More than one fifth of the age group of 18 to 19 years responded

that they never read any book.

1. British photographer Julia Margaret Cameron is considered one of the

greatest portrait photographers of the 19th century.

2. Born in Calcutta, India, into a British family, Cameron was educated in

France.

3. Given a camera as a gift by her daughter in December 1863, she

quickly and energetically devoted herself to the art of photography.

4. She cleared out a chicken coop and converted it into studio space
where she began to work as a photographer.

5. Cameron made illustrative studio photographs, convincing friends and

family members to pose for photographs, fitting them in theatrical

costumes and carefully composing them into scenes.

6. Criticized for her so‐called bad technique by art critics in her own
time, she ignored convention and experimented with composition and

focus.

7. Later critics appreciated her valuing of spiritual depth over technical

perfection and now consider her portraits to be among the finest

expressions of the artistic possibilities of the medium.

1. Human beings like certainty.

2. This liking stems from our ancient ancestors who needed to survive
alongside saber‐toothed tigers and poisonous berries.

3. Our brains evolved to help us attend to threats, keep away from them,
and remain alive afterward.

4. In fact, we learned that the more certain we were about something,

the better chance we had of making the right choice.

5. Is this berry the same shape as last time? The same size?

6. If I know for certain it is, my brain will direct me to eat it because I

know it’s safe.

7. And if I’m uncertain, my brain will send out a danger alert to protect
me.

8. The dependence on certainty all those millennia ago ensured our

survival to the present day, and the danger‐alert system continues to

protect us.

9. This is achieved by our brains labeling new, vague, or unpredictable

everyday events and experiences as uncertain.

10. Our brains then generate sensations, thoughts, and action plans to
keep us safe from the uncertain element, and we live to see another
day.

1. Robert Blattberg and Steven Hoch noted that, in a changing

environment, it is not clear that consistency is always a virtue and that

one of the advantages of human judgment is the ability to detect

change.

2. Thus, in changing environments, it might be advantageous to combine

human judgment and statistical models.

3. Blattberg and Hoch examined this possibility by having supermarket

managers forecast demand for certain products and then creating a

composite forecast by averaging these judgments with the forecasts of

statistical models based on past data.

4. The logic was that statistical models assume stable conditions and
therefore cannot account for the effects on demand of novel events

such as actions taken by competitors or the introduction of new

products.

5. Humans, however, can incorporate these novel factors in their

judgments.

6. The composite ─ or average of human judgments and statistical

models─proved to be more accurate than either the statistical models

or the managers working alone.

1. Free play is nature’s means of teaching children that they are not
helpless.

2. In play, away from adults, children really do have control and can
practice asserting it.

3. In free play, children learn to make their own decisions, solve their
own problems, create and follow rules, and get along with others as

equals rather than as obedient or rebellious subordinates.

4. In active outdoor play, children deliberately dose themselves with

moderate amounts of fear and they thereby learn how to control not

only their bodies, but also their fear.

5. In social play children learn how to negotiate with others, how to

please others, and how to manage and overcome the anger that can

arise from conflicts.

6. None of these lessons can be taught through verbal means; they can
be learned only through experience, which free play provides.

1. Many early dot‐com investors focused almost entirely on revenue

growth instead of net income.

2. Many early dot‐com companies earned most of their revenue from

selling advertising space on their Web sites.

3. To boost reported revenue, some sites began exchanging ad space.

4. Company A would put an ad for its Web site on company B’s Web
site, and company B would put an ad for its Web site on company

A’s Web site.

5. No money ever changed hands, but each company recorded revenue

(for the value of the space that it gave up on its site) and expense

(for the value of its ad that it placed on the other company’s site).

6. This practice did little to boost net income and resulted in no

additional cash inflow ─ but it did boost reported revenue.

7. This practice was quickly put to an end because accountants felt that
it did not meet the criteria of the revenue recognition principle.

1. Scholars of myth have long argued that myth gives structure and
meaning to human life; that meaning is amplified when a myth

evolves into a world.

2. A virtual world’s ability to fulfill needs grows when lots and lots of
people believe in the world.

3. Conversely, a virtual world cannot be long sustained by a mere

handful of adherents.

4. Consider the difference between a global sport and a game I invent

with my nine friends and play regularly.

5. My game might be a great game, one that is completely immersive,

one that consumes all of my group’s time and attention.

6. If its reach is limited to the ten of us, though, then it’s ultimately just
a weird hobby, and it has limited social function.

7. For a virtual world to provide lasting, wide‐ranging value, its

participants must be a large enough group to be considered a society.

8. When that threshold is reached, psychological value can turn into wide
‐ranging social value.

1. It seems natural to describe certain environmental conditions as

‘extreme’, ‘harsh’, ‘benign’ or ‘stressful’.

2. It may seem obvious when conditions are ‘extreme’: the midday heat
of a desert, the cold of an Antarctic winter, the salinity of the Great

Salt Lake.

3. But this only means that these conditions are extreme for us, given
our particular physiological characteristics and tolerances.

4. To a cactus there is nothing extreme about the desert conditions in

which cacti have evolved; nor are the icy lands of Antarctica an

extreme environment for penguins.

5. It is lazy and dangerous for the ecologist to assume that all other
organisms sense the environment in the way we do.

6. Rather, the ecologist should try to gain a worm’s‐eye or plant’s‐eye

view of the environment: to see the world as others see it.

7. Emotive words like harsh and benign, even relativities such as hot and
cold, should be used by ecologists only with care.

1. Human processes differ from rational processes in their outcome.

2. A process is rational if it always does the right thing based on the

current information, given an ideal performance measure.

3. In short, rational processes go by the book and assume that the book
is actually correct.

4. Human processes involve instinct, intuition, and other variables that

don’t necessarily reflect the book and may not even consider the

existing data.

5. As an example, the rational way to drive a car is to always follow the

laws.

6. However, traffic isn’t rational; if you follow the laws precisely, you end
up stuck somewhere because other drivers aren’t following the laws

precisely.

7. To be successful, a self‐driving car must therefore act humanly, rather

than rationally.

1. Like positive habits, bad habits exist on a continuum of easy‐to‐

change and hard‐to‐change.

2. When you get toward the “hard” end of the spectrum, note the
language you hear — breaking bad habits and battling addiction.

3. It’s as if an unwanted behavior is a nefarious villain to be aggressively

defeated.

4. But this kind of language (and the approaches it spawns) frames these
challenges in a way that isn’t helpful or effective.

5. I specifically hope we will stop using this phrase: “break a habit.”

6. This language misguides people.

7. The word “break” sets the wrong expectation for how you get rid of a
bad habit.

8. This word implies that if you input a lot of force in one moment, the
habit will be gone.

9. However, that rarely works, because you usually cannot get rid of an

unwanted habit by applying force one time.

1. A common but incorrect assumption is that we are creatures of reason

when, in fact, we are creatures of both reason and emotion.

2. We cannot get by on reason alone since any reason always eventually

leads to a feeling.

3. Should I get a wholegrain cereal or a chocolate cereal?

4. I can list all the reasons I want, but the reasons have to be based on
something.

5. For example, if my goal is to eat healthy, I can choose the wholegrain

cereal, but what is my reason for wanting to be healthy?

6. I can list more and more reasons such as wanting to live longer,
spending more quality time with loved ones, etc., but what are the
reasons for those reasons?

7. You should be able to see by now that reasons are ultimately based
on non‐reason such as values, feelings, or emotions.

8. These deep‐seated values, feelings, and emotions we have are rarely a

result of reasoning, but can certainly be influenced by reasoning.

9. We have values, feelings, and emotions before we begin to reason and

long before we begin to reason effectively.

1. Electric communication is mainly known in fish.

2. The electric signals are produced in special electric organs.

3. When the signal is discharged the electric organ will be negatively

loaded compared to the head and an electric field is created around

the fish.

4. A weak electric current is created also in ordinary muscle cells when

they contract.

5. In the electric organ the muscle cells are connected in larger chunks,
which makes the total current intensity larger than in ordinary muscles.

6. The fish varies the signals by changing the form of the electric field or
the frequency of discharging.

7. The system is only working over small distances, about one to two
meters.

8. This is an advantage since the species using the signal system often
live in large groups with several other species.

9. If many fish send out signals at the same time, the short range
decreases the risk of interference.

1. Creativity can have an effect on productivity.

2. Creativity leads some individuals to recognize problems that others do

not see, but which may be very difficult.

3. Charles Darwin’s approach to the speciation problem is a good

example of this; he chose a very difficult and tangled problem,

speciation, which led him into a long period of data collection and

deliberation.

4. This choice of problem did not allow for a quick attack or a simple
experiment.

5. In such cases creativity may actually decrease productivity (as measured

by publication counts) because effort is focused on difficult problems.

6. For others, whose creativity is more focused on methods and

technique, creativity may lead to solutions that drastically reduce the
work necessary to solve a problem.

7. We can see an example in the development of the polymerase chain

reaction (PCR) which enables us to amplify small pieces of DNA in a

short time.

8. This type of creativity might reduce the number of steps or substitute

steps that are less likely to fail, thus increasing productivity.

1. A young child may be puzzled when asked to distinguish between the

directions of right and left.

2. But that same child may have no difficulty in determining the

directions of up and down or back and front.

3. Scientists propose that this occurs because, although we experience

three dimensions, only two had a strong influence on our evolution:

the vertical dimension as defined by gravity and, in mobile species, the

front/back dimension as defined by the positioning of sensory and

feeding mechanisms.

4. These influence our perception of vertical versus horizontal, far versus

close, and the search for dangers from above (such as an eagle) or

below (such as a snake).

5. However, the left‐right axis is not as relevant in nature. ‐

6. A bear is equally dangerous from its left or the right side, but not if
it is upside down.

7. In fact, when observing a scene containing plants, animals, and man‐

made objects such as cars or street signs, we can only tell when left

and right have been inverted if we observe those artificial items.

3. They have different approaches to work. And they’re each motivated

by different things.

4. Managing people is about being aware of their unique personalities.

5. It’s also about empathy and adaptability, and knowing how the things
you do and say will be interpreted and adapting accordingly.

6. Who you are and what you say may not be the same from one
person to the next.

7. For instance, if you’re asking someone to work a second weekend in a

row, or telling them they aren’t getting that deserved promotion just

yet, you need to bear in mind the individual.

8. Vincent will have a very different reaction to the news than Emily, and
they will each be more receptive to the news if it’s bundled with

different things.

9. Perhaps that promotion news will land easier if Vincent is given a few

extra vacation days for the holidays, while you can promise Emily a

bigger promotion a year from now.

10. Consider each person’s complex positive and negative personality traits,
their life circumstances, and their mindset in the moment when

deciding what to say and how to say it.

11 Personal connection, compassion, and an individualized management

style are key to drawing consistent, rock star‐level work out of

everyone.

2. Wylder was heading to the school field for his first training.

3. He had just joined the team with five other students after a successful
tryout.

socks and strapping on shin guards.

6. New players were sitting in the shade by the garage, while the others
were standing in the sun by the right pole.

separately.

9. ‘This has to change,’ he thought.

10. He wanted a winning team. To do that, he needed to build

relationships.

11. “I want you guys to come over here in the middle and sit,” he called
the players as he walked over.

14. He started pointing, making sure they mixed together.

satisfied with the rearrangement.

18. “We need to learn how to trust and work with each other. This is how
a team plays.

19. This is how I want you to be on and off the field: together.”

20. The players looked at each other.

21. Almost immediately, McGraw noticed a change in their postures and

faces.

23. From his new location on the grass, he stretched out his legs.

27
24. He liked what he was hearing.

25. A new sense of team spirit came across him, a deeper sense of
connection.

challenge head‑on.

27. Now his speech was over.

28. The players got up and started walking on the field to warm up.

29. “Good job, Coach. That was good,” Wylder said to McGraw in a low

voice as he walked past him, keeping his eyes down out of respect.
