Natural selection of words
Darwin was right, if we consider the idea of \u200b\u200bevolution in a human context: the world we live in the fittest survive (and here is suitable not equivalent to a predator but be able to survive in their environment no matter how many and which changes have to endure), which succeeded in adopting the changes while retaining a core of knowledge, customs and effective, maintaining a tenacious bond with their community, but the true test of a language to suit can only be measured long term .

That is: not everything new and do not necessarily survive everything set inevitably dies. Because change is always and everywhere, and what is accepted today may be forgotten tomorrow. The Internet is a tool that, as McLuhan said it exemplifies the perfection that the medium is the message. And their messages can make us believe that simplification is the only evolutionary path for our language, that the future of our English is reduced to its consonants and initials. I think not.
The Internet, for example, is an extraordinary learning tool, is a source of texts, a scriptural boom as it had not seen for a century postcards. New generations have risen daily blog format, the epistolary communication in tirades of chat, instant chat public debate.
Change is not one and in one direction. Everyone adheres to the changes that suit (pragmatically) or that interest you (idealistically). For options that are giving our culture, for it serves our language: for memory and testing for the strength and flexibility of what we say and write what we think and feel.
is not to defend an indefensible purity of our language (English is a real melting pot of Greek, Latin, Celtic, Arab, Jewish, African American construction is a heterogeneous mixture of styles and fashions, not immobilize or petrified), because there is no greater test English survivability of its new idioms, its concepts in use, while preserving an identity-one that allows us to say: This is who we are. This is the script that we write. Taken together, our language is a portrait of everything that we have done in over a thousand years of history, everything we've been able to promote to communicate with us. And when I say history, evolution and expansion on a global scale.
English, as part of an empire, he created dialects and versions of himself to mingle with the native languages \u200b\u200bof the regions or kingdoms conquered the passage of his soldiers. It is indeed a language imposed, but I just enrich our culture. In his impulses and energy is our heritage and our legacy, the mixture of our endeavors and achievements: life for life, word for word. What began as slavery and taxation came to be an act of affirmation centuries later the English now no longer belongs to Spain but it is collective and personal property of each speaker, each writer anywhere in the world.
What the Greeks called freedom. That spirit than the English claims and represents today: without false modesty, with proud diversity. Looking to the future.

not put off your projects
All entrepreneurs and business people have a very long list of outstanding issues. We have projects in mind and even we may have designed a plan action. But not always put into practice. What is the reason for not continuing with projects that are interesting to us?
According to the American author Stacy Karacostas there are three reasons why employers abandon some projects such as writing a book, launching a new product or complete their education.
The first is "Expect everything to be perfect" . Before submitting a book or publish an article we review again and again. Whenever you are hit and add data, delete others, update part ... in the end I keep in a drawer. That is not the proper way to act, if you have enough quality but not perfect (because Something "is?) We continue the process, market, post etc. If you later need to make any changes we can do or create new versions of the new product. 2
The reason is the fear . That feeling can paralyze us and prevent us to achieve our goals. We have fear of failure, fear they will say or fear of success . The important thing is to think that fear is natural, but do not allow us to acquire possession.
Reason 3, "I have not yet become an expert" . We can not even pretend to know everything about the topic we know best. The American advisor Dan Kennedy said "in the country of the blind the one eyed man is king "and is a truth as a temple.
Therefore Stacy said that we must act as an expert, ie post articles, write books, speak at events and .
I agree with it, because the process of becoming an expert is continuous. I am always reading on subjects related to the company or my specialty, beauty and personal image. As you publish, you're going to enrich and share your knowledge with others. If he had waited, KarysaBeauty.com still would not be a reality.
Are there any plans to postpone systematically? you always think you need a bit to go off and fight for your dreams?
