A New Look For M.W.B.
I am changing the way about this.
I am constantly thinking of the best way to achieve my purpose for starting the Mind Without Boundary newsletter.
The past few weeks was invested on this thought again.
The initial plan for me was to do all the writings that will ensure all subscribers gets a way to build such mind that is unbounded. That plan has been heating a dead end for all I care.
Over the weekend a new idea came up that I will be experimenting with and for which I will appreciate your feedback on it so I can make it better from here on.
I really appreciate you all for allowing me a space in your inbox and for opening my email always. You make all the efforts put into it worth it.
To support me further, please share this newsletter with your friends.
Also, I want you all to be the first to know about my website that I’m currently working on. All original articles will have their origin from the website. It’s still under development and will soon be completed.
The new structure will be as outlined below:
One original article from me (when available).
A section on “building a mind without boundary with recommended articles” on different topics ranging from economics to philosophy and from physics to poetry.
Another section on the same topic but with video contents. I consider this important for the sake of those who would either prefer video content or would like it in addition to the written one.
Then lastly, an image that gets the imagination active.
My goal is to make sure that I give you maximum return on the time spent reading any email from me and that I don't waste your time but ultimately help you to build a mind without boundary indeed.

Success Compounds
Have you noticed that it’s much easier to get ”another” success once you get the first one?
A common denominator of all humans is the desire to attain their goals which can then be interpreted as success. However, many struggle to achieve these goals because of an endless reason. Yet, a pattern that has been obvious throughout history shows that success in one area attracts or makes success easier in another area. It is only alarming that not everyone is aware of this pattern, hence, very few leverage it.
Our goal more often than not is to move from your zero (no success) to one (first success). Then the universe will show you her abundance.
Such movement isn’t always easy. Many times, it requires us doing things outside of our comfort zone, going the extra mile, failing a lot on the way and even failing to attain one from zero. It’s a cruel process that our nature isn’t wired for. Moving from no-success to first success requires investment in perseverance, hard work, and faith. Very few are ready to make such investment.
Yet, it’s the way of life. It’s the only way to play the game of life that we find ourselves… Continue reading from here.

— On History
The Lessons of History - The study of history can be arduous. The social media feeds we inhabit, such as Facebook and Twitter have a recency bias. Most of what we consume is less than 24 hours old.
The Lessons of History is short and straightforward. It compresses 100 centuries of history into 100 pages of conclusions. It focuses on timeless truths, not today's trends – the antithesis of social media. It highlights the lessons of history, not the events that define it.
— On Religion
Rethinking clerics and religion - The most surprising thing to come out of religious studies in the past decade or so is the discovery that "religion" actually doesn't exist. It cannot be defined. Religion, for example, isn't "belief in a deity" -- Buddhism doesn't make that cut.
The concept of "religion" as we use it today has its roots in Christian belief and in colonialism.

But I don't think it's actually about being a prophet. I believe anyone who follows hard after their curiosity will most likely end up finding the amazing.

Image to keep your imagination active
This is called a Snowy Owl.
Seeing it, it inspires beauty and the magnificent of what constitutes life in my mind. It made me wonder again what makes us “human” and why we are different from the owl for instance.
I found the following facts about the owl.
Most owls sleep during the day and hunt at night, but the snowy owl is often active during the day, especially in the summertime. The snowy owl is both a specialized and generalist hunter. Its breeding efforts and entirely global population are closely tied to the availability of tundra dwelling lemmings but in the non-breeding season and occasionally during breeding the snowy owl can adapt to almost any available prey, most often other small mammals and northerly water birds.
