"Ender's Game" Book Review
Today I'll bring you another awesome (and very funny) book review, this time, from "Ender's Game".
If you haven't heard of this book and don't know what this is about, here it is:
"In order to develop a secure defense against a hostile alien race's next attack, government agencies breed child geniuses and train them as soldiers. A brilliant young boy, Andrew "Ender" Wiggin lives with his kind but distant parents, his sadistic brother Peter, and the person he loves more than anyone else, his sister Valentine. Peter and Valentine were candidates for the soldier-training program but didn't make the cut--young Ender is the Wiggin drafted to the orbiting Battle School for rigorous military training.
Ender's skills make him a leader in school and respected in the Battle Room, where children play at mock battles in zero gravity. Yet growing up in an artificial community of young soldiers, Ender suffers greatly from isolation, rivalry from his peers, pressure from the adult teachers, and an unsettling fear of the alien invaders. His psychological battles include loneliness, fear that he is becoming like the cruel brother he remembers, and fanning the flames of devotion to his beloved sister.
Is Ender the general Earth needs? But Ender is not the only result of the genetic experiments. The war with the Buggers has been raging for a hundred years, and the quest for the perfect general has been underway for almost as long. Ender's two older siblings are every bit as unusual as he is, but in very different ways. Between the three of them lie the abilities to remake a world. If the world survives, that is."

You Are IN CONTROL Of Your Life!
Recently I did a video about the Uber Engineer who have ended his own life. As always, I ended up receiving a lot of nasty comments on the video, saying that I did not have any authority to talk about such subject, that there are differences between depressed people and sad people, etc.
Well, while I do not get into this discussion again, I think most of you have misinterpreted the video.
My whole point was: You are IN CONTROL of your life! And nothing can take that away from you.
This is exactly what I'm going to talk in this video.

How To Beat The Vicious Cycle Of Procrastination
Procrastination is often defined by "the avoidance of doing a task which needs to be accomplished". You need to do something but you just can't. You avoid, you postpone it, and you even self-sabotage yourself so you won't do what need to be done.
Procrastination has become something hyped in our society right now. A lot of people talk about procrastination and there are a lot of jokes on Facebook. However, what a lot of people don't realize is that procrastination is a serious stuff.
All of us procrastinate at a certain level. However, there is what I call the "vicious cycle of procrastination", which is a cycle that draws into a series of actions which you can't simply exit.
This cycle is often followed by guilt, self-punishment, and more procrastination. Are you interested in a technique that will make you beat this vicious cycle of procrastination?

Giving Your Best In Every Thing That You Do!
So, a lot of you know that I like personal development a lot and this concept came to my mind a few days ago.
As you might know, I receive a lot of email from a lot of different people and from different countries. A lot of these emails, especially the ones that are not US citizens, are really really poorly written... Like... A LOT.
So, this got me thinking why these people even bother to send an email like that.
In my opinion, you should give 100% of yourself at everything that you do. And this is exactly what this video is going to talk about.
