Psycho Cybernetics - A Classic Self-Help Book By Maxwell Maltz
This is a classic self-help book that emphasizes the importance of self image for the human being.
Maxwell Maltz is a Plastic Surgeon who became interested in Psychology and Self-Help.
From the author, This book is not for reading, it's for being practiced.
You need to keep practicing and taking notes. Take memos of what you understood from the book.
And write conclusions at the end of each chapter.
The self image is the basis for being and thinking. Positive thinking doesn't always work except if it's consistent with positive self image.
What made a plastic surgeon a researcher in Psychology?
Self image is the human internal blue print. It's constructed since early childhood.
Self image is constructed through practical experience and not intellectual knowledge.
Pactical experience might sometime be harmful or even lethal. So the human can use mental visualization instead of actual practice. That's because the mind doesn't know the difference between actual reality and imagination.
Subconscious mind works in a form of a servo mechanism the follows its target until it reaches it.
The 21 days rule
You need to keep practicing guidance in this book for not less that 21 days without the intellectual criticism or judgement.
The 21 days rule comes from the fact that it's the least amount of time needed for brain to adapt to the new situation. People who have their limbs removed take about 21 days to adapt to the missing limb. And people who move to a new house take as much time to consider as home.
The book invites you to go to your mental escape room in which you can have your best time with calmness and relief.
And at the final chapters, the book teaches you how to get the winning feeling. And how to use your mental images to feel younger and happier.
And today I've started to read a new book from Chris Guillebeau

My Inventions: The Autobiography of Nikola Tesla Book Review
Today I've just finished reading this book My Inventions: The Autobiography of Nikola Tesla Book Review.
First I thought the book would be of a technical nature. But as read, I found that Tesla mentions his personal life with some technical examples of inventions and situations.
At the beginning of the book, Tesla mentions his older brother. And then he mentions his suffering with Synesthesia.
The the book continues to his education and readings.
It is worth to mention that Tesla viewed the way his parents had influenced his character.
He had mentioned many of his inventions. What I really want to know the real practical application for each one of his inventions.
It's the fact that this man has created many useful inventions, many of them are used today and many aren't know to most of us.
When you see those many ideas and applications you can really feel motivated to read about them all and know exactly how do they are used today.
Also there is in one part of the book he mentions the spiritual part of his life. This part is not clear.
One reason for this is the old language of the book and another reason is the mysterious nature of his character.
Anyway, the book is a quick guide for his life and inventions and it's worth to read.
Now that I've finished this book, I'll start a new book called Psycho Cybernetics.

DIY Tomato Gardening at home - Seeds to the Fruit
In this post, I'll share with you how I made my small Tomato garden in the my balcony.
Here I 'll show you how to grow Tomato indoors starting from seeds right up to the grown fruits.
Get a suitable soil container. I got a couple of 50 cm wide container.
Fill it with soil. Here I used peat moss as soil. You can also just get some soil from anywhere you can.
Get the Tomato seeds from an ordinary Tomato fruit you eat every day. The single Tomato fruit contains many seeds inside it.
Put the seeds inside the soil and water them with suitable amount of water.
Don't put too much water above the soil so it looks as if it was drowned.
Just enough water to keep the soil wet.
The best thing in Tomato gardening is that you can see the plant growing fast.
I got some green leaves out of the soil just after a few days when I planted the seeds.
Keep watering the soil every day.
In the hot days you may need to water them twice a day to keep the soil wet and plants happy.
The best time to water the plants is in the early morning. But if you couldn't do this just do it as soon as you can.
If you intend to travel for a couple of days you may consider leaving the plants with someone who takes care of them or you can use a simple automatic irrigation system or an unattended irrigation system.
The most simple unattended irrigation system is simply a plastic bottle filled with water and holed at the bottom so that water can drop automatically on the soil and keep it wet.
You can find many ideas of such thing on instructables.com . Just search instructables.com for " self watering " or another words give that the same meaning.
Just remember to keep the soil wet to keep your Tomato alive and healthy.
After 3 months you can see yellow flowers from your plants.
After four to five months you can see you first Tomato fruit coming out of a flower.
It starts growing from small size you can hardly notice and keeps getting bigger to get the size of the normal Tomato.
When it gets its normal size, it is still green colored.
The fruit color keeps changing slowly from green to orange to dark red.
The fruit changes from being so hard to get softer.
When it gets soft enough, you can eat it.
Here are some tips:
- Keep watering the soil every day . Don't let the soil be dry. This can harm the plants.
- Don't put too much water on the soil. Too much water can also harm the plants.
- Don't panic if you found some yellow leaves in the plant. Some leaves may get the yellow color when the plant gets older or after a very hot day. You may remove yellow leaves as they are not useful for plant growth.
- Carefully look at your small garden every day and watch the changes in the plants. You can find some fruits that have grown up without your notice.
- You may find some white insects on the leaves and the twigs. You must remove them because they are harmful to the plant and make leaves get yellow more often.
Happy Tomato Gardening.
