We’re all time-deprived; it can be daunting to have to manage work, family, and the “spare” time we spend on the necessary evil we call networking. But networking doesn’t have to be so time-consuming. If you’re like most people, you have built your network haphazardly, connecting with anyone who will communicate with you. You probably have a hard time saying no to people. And as a result, people you barely know are probably making demands on your time and, like a true mensch, you may be accommodating them. But your undiscerning generosity may be self-defeating: by giving your time to fifty people rather than, say, five, you are making far less of an impact in the world than the sheer volume of your network would have you think.

Are You a Narcissist? Identifying and Understanding Narcissism

Narcissism should not be confused with high self-esteem. Narcissists may have an inflated sense of self-importance or a heightened desire for attention, but that doesn’t mean they really feel good about themselves deep down.

Do they have an exaggerated sense of self-importance? Do they expect recognition or praise even when they haven’t earned it? Do they exaggerate their accomplishments? Do they have a sense of entitlement? Expect special favors? Feel envious of others? Act arrogant?

All of these traits are listed among the criteria for narcissistic personality disorder as it’s defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5

همیشه حرف های مفت( زر مفت) فراوانی در اطراف ما وجود داشته است و هم اکنون نیز وجود دارد

بیست(سی) سال پیش یک فیلسوف دانشگاه ییل سخنانی ایراد کرد که علیرغم عنوان غیرمعمولش چندان مورد توجه قرار نگرفت، سخنرانی ای با عنوان «درباره حرف مفت» . سال گذشته این سخنرانی در قالب کتابی ۶۷ صفحه ای با همین نام انتشار یافت و اما این بار اقبال فراوانی به آن شد در رده یکی از پرفروش کتاب های فلسفی در دنیای انگلیسی زبان قرار گرفت و همچنان نیز پرفروش باقی مانده است و نویسنده ۷۵ ساله آن «هری فرانکفورت» - استاد فلسفه دانشگاه- در حد یک مرشد معنوی مورد استقبال قرار گرفته است. اما چرا چنین شد؟
تصاویر ناسازگاری وجود دارند که بعضی از مردم نمی توانند در برابر گیرایی آن مقاومت کنند. مثلاً دیدن راهبه ای که در جامه رسمی اش دارد می رقصد آنچنان که در فیلم «خواهر اکت» با نقش آفرینی ووپی گلدبرگ می بینیم.
ما به خاطر آن که چنین رخدادهایی به طور معمول رخ نمی دهند به سوی آنها جذب نمی شویم، بلکه آنها به این خاطر توجه ما را جلب می کنند، که «نباید رخ بدهند».
بنابر این هنگامی که یک استاد هفتاد و هشت ساله فلسفه کتابی منتشر کند با نام «درباره حرف مفت» و کتاب در عرض تنها چند ماه به چاپ دهم برسد، شاید نباید خیلی هم تعجب کنیم.
هری فرانکفورت استاد ممتاز بازنشسته دانشگاه پرینستون نویسنده کتاب می گوید: «مردم از تصور این که یک استاد دانشگاه های نخبه آمریکا از چنین زبانی استفاده کند کیف می کنند... نمی توانم بگویم که استقبال شدید از کتاب غافلگیرم نکرد... واقعاً شگفت زده شدم.»
فرانکفورت ۷۵ ساله حق دارد که شگفت زده باشد. هر چقدر هم که اکنون رفتارهای ما بچگانه و بی معنی باشد، خیلی بی معنی تر از بیست (سی) سال پیش نیست که این متن برای اولین بار برای ایراد به عنوان سخنرانی نوشته شد.

Bicycle kick, also known as an overhead kick or scissors kick, is an acrobatic strike where a player kicks an airborne ball rearward in midair.
Iranian star Jahanbakhsh denies Chelsea with overhead wonder goal - CNN
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (CNN)Iran may well have calculated that it's better off with a Democrat in the White House and not a Republican like President Donald Trump.

Logically -- and Iran's leaders are intensely pragmatic in that far-sighted way -- Tehran will likely calibrate its vowed "harsh revenge" response to the killing of Qasem Soleimani in a bid to cost Trump re-election.

Part of that calculation is likely to have Iran focus on targets inside the United States as well as in the Middle East, not just to embarrass Trump but to limit regional escalation.

Hours after the strike Trump said his intention was "to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war." But the President's actions may soon catch up with his words at home -- especially when fighting an election campaign.
