It's Much Better To Be Driven By An Inner Sense Of Purpose Than By The Outer Flashy Success". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
A powerful portfolio of physiological and behavioural evidence now exists to support the case that fish feel pain and that this feeling matters. In the face of such evidence, any argument to the contrary based on the claim that fish 'do not have the right sort of brain' can no longer be called scientific. It is just obstinate. ~ John Webster
Behavioural quotes by John Webster
Humility Makes The Heart Soft And That's When The Seed Of Love Grows Luxuriantly". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Looking At The Temporary Situations, We Make Permanent Decisions"! ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Our Feelings Are Result Of Some Needs That Are Either Met Or Unmet". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
One of my colleagues in Duke, Ralph Keeney, noted that America's top killer isn't cancer or heart disease, nor is it smoking or obesity. It's our inability to make smart choices and overcome our own self-destructive behaviours. Ralph estimates that about half of us will make a lifestyle decision that will ultimately lead us to an early grave. And as if this were not bad enough, it seems that the rate at which we make these deadly decisions is increasing at an alarming pace.

I suspect that over the next few decades, real improvements in life expectancy and quality are less likely to be driven by medical technology than by improved decision making. Since focusing on long-term benefits is not our natural tendency, we need to more carefully examine the cases in which we repeatedly fail, and try to come up with some remedies for these situations. For an overweight movie loved, the key might be to enjoy watching a film while walking on the treadmill. The trick is to find the right behavioural antidote for each problem. By pairing something that we love with something that we dislike but that is good for us, we might be able to harness desire with outcome - and thus overcome some of the problems with self-control we face every day. ~ Dan Ariely
Behavioural quotes by Dan Ariely
The virtues of character, behavioural patterns determine how great a nation and people are. ~ Sunday Adelaja
Behavioural quotes by Sunday Adelaja
Living meaningfully means being bigger than just yourself. It means making the world a better place because you were here. It is possible to do this through your job, especially if your work involves helping others but even if it does not. ~ Amy Alkon, Good Manners - For Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck
Behavioural quotes by Amy Alkon, Good Manners - For Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck
The Pathe & Mullen (1997) sample almost unanimously reported deterioration in mental and physical well-being as a consequence of the harassment. (..) These victims often described a preoccupation with their stalker, one commenting: "I think I've become as obsessed as the stalker himself". (..) Whenever stalking victims present it is essential to assess their suicide potential and continue to monitor this. (..) Victims of stalking often respond to cognitive-orientated psychological therapies because stalking breaches previously held assumptions about their safety. The belief of victims in their strength and resilience and their confidence in the reasonable and predictable nature of the world are frequently shattered, to be replaced with feelings of extreme vulnerability and an expectation of pervasive danger and unpredictable harm. Cognitive therapies attempt to restructure these morbid perceptions of the world that threaten the victim's adaptation and functioning. (..) Avoidance can respond to behavioural therapies such as prolonged exposure and stress inoculation, which aim to assist victims to gradually resume abandoned activities and manage the associated anxiety. ~ Julian Boon
Behavioural quotes by Julian Boon
Like casinos, large corporate entities have studied the numbers and the ways in which people respond to them. These are not con tricks - they're not even necessarily against our direct interests, although sometimes they can be - but they are hacks for the human mind, ways of manipulating us into particular decisions we otherwise might not make. They are also, in a way, deliberate underminings of the core principle of the free market, which derives its legitimacy from the idea that informed self-interest on aggregate sets appropriate prices for items. The key word is 'informed'; the point of behavioural economics - or rather, of its somewhat buccaneering corporate applications - is to skew our perception of the purchase to the advantage of the company. The overall consequence of that is to tilt the construction of our society away from what it should be if we were making the rational decisions classical economics imagines we would, and towards something else. ~ Nick Harkaway
Behavioural quotes by Nick Harkaway
God Is Never In Hurry, But He Is Always On Time". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Leadership Is About Care, Not Scare, It's About Giving, Not Taking". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
To Gain Knowledge One Has To Study Or Hear, But To Gain Wisdom One Has To Observe". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
In the course of a short city-block this frantic old woman frenetically caricatured the features of forty or fifty passers-by, in a quick-fire sequence of kaleidoscopic imitations, each lasting a second or two, sometimes less, and the whole dizzying sequence scarcely more than two minutes.

And there were ludicrous imitations of the second and third order; for the people in the street, startled, outraged, bewildered by her imitations, took on these expressions in reaction to her; and those expressions, in turn, were re-reflected, re-directed, re-distorted, by the Touretter, causing a still greater degree of outrage and shock. This grotesque, involuntary resonance, or mutuality, by which everyone was drawn into an absurdly amplifying interaction, was the source of the disturbance I had seen from a distance. This woman who, becoming everybody, lost her own self, became nobody. This woman with a thousand faces, masks, personae- how must it be for her in this whirlwind of identities? The answer came soon- and not a second too late; for the build-up of pressures, both hers and others', was fast approaching the point of explosion. Suddenly, desperately, the old woman turned aside, into an alley-way which led off the main street. And there, with all the appearances of a woman violently sick, she expelled, tremendously accelerated and abbreviated, all the gestures, the postures, the expressions, the demeanours, the entire behavioural repertoires, of the past forty or fifty ~ Oliver Sacks
Behavioural quotes by Oliver Sacks
If You Feel Miserable In Life, Don't Be An Escapist By Sulking On The Barrage Of Videos And Action On Your Mobile Screen. Pause! Relax, Breathe, Spend Time With Family And Friends And Then Get Courageous And Face Your Situation Bravely". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
The tabloids are like animals, with their own behavioural patterns. There's no point in complaining about them, any more than complaining that lions might eat you. ~ David Mellor
Behavioural quotes by David Mellor
It is true that many creative people fail to make mature personal relationships, and some are extremely isolated. It is also true that, in some instances, trauma, in the shape of early separation or bereavement, has steered the potentially creative person toward developing aspects of his personality which can find fulfillment in comparative isolation. But this does not mean that solitary, creative pursuits are themselves pathological ...
[A]voidance behavior is a response designed to protect the infant from behavioural disorganization. If we transfer this concept to adult life, we can see that an avoidant infant might very well develop into a person whose principal need was to find some kind of meaning and order in life which was not entirely, or even chiefly, dependent upon interpersonal relationships. ~ Anthony Storr
Behavioural quotes by Anthony Storr
It is recognised now that Freud never gave proper attention, even in man, to growth of the ego or self: 'the impulse to master, control or come to self-fulfilling terms with the environment'. Analysts who have freed themselves from Freud's bias and joined other behavioural scientists in studying the human need, and that interference with it, in any dimension, is the source of psychic trouble. The sexual is only one dimension of the human potential. Freud saw women only in terms of their sexual relationship with men. But in all those women in whom he saw sexual problems, there must have been very severe problems of blocked growth, growth short of full human identity -- an immature, incomplete self. Society as it was then, by explicit denial of education and independence, prevented women from realising their full potential, or from attaining those interests and ideals that might stimulated their growth. Freud reported these deficiencies, but could only explain them as the toll of 'penis envy'. He saw that women who secretly hungered to be man's equal would not enjoy being his object; and in this, he seemed to be describing a fact. But when he dismissed woman's yearning for equality as 'penis envy', was he not merely stating his own view that woman could never really be man's equal, any more than she could wear his penis? ~ Betty Friedan
Behavioural quotes by Betty Friedan
Put simply, behavioural economics argues that human beings' decision-taking is guided by the evolutionary baggage which we bring with us to the present day. Evolution has made us rational to a point, but not perfectly so. It has given us emotions, for example, which programme us to override our rational brain and act more instinctively. ~ Evan Davis
Behavioural quotes by Evan Davis
Too often we forget that discipline really means to teach, not to punish. A disciple is a student, not a recipient of behavioural consequences. ~ Daniel J. Siegel
Behavioural quotes by Daniel J. Siegel
As the following pages deal with the practising life, they lead - in accordance with their topic - to an expedition into the little-explored universe of human vertical tensions. The Platonic Socrates had opened up the phenomenon for occidental culture when he stated expressis verbis that man is a being potentially 'superior to himself'. I translate this remark into the observation that all 'cultures', 'subcultures' or 'scenes' are based on central distinctions by which the field of human behavioural possibilities is subdivided into polarized classes. Thus the ascetic 'cultures' know the central distinction of complete versus incomplete, the religious 'cultures' that of sacred versus profane, the aristocratic 'cultures' that of noble versus common, the military 'cultures' that of brave versus cowardly, the political 'cultures' that of powerful versus powerless, the administrative 'cultures' that of superior versus subordinate, the athletic 'cultures' that of excellence versus mediocrity, the economic 'cultures' that of wealth versus lack, the cognitive 'cultures' that of knowledge versus ignorance, and the sapiental 'cultures' that of illumination versus blindness. What all these differentiations have in common is the espousal of the first value, which is considered the attractor in the respective field, while the second pole consistently functions as a factor of repulsion or object of avoidance. ~ Peter Sloterdijk
Behavioural quotes by Peter Sloterdijk
Douglas Mock has assembled the animal behavioural evidence in More than Kin and Less than Kind.6 In the Galapagos Islands young fur seals attack their newborn siblings, seizing them by the throat and tossing them into the air, killing them unless the mother seal intervenes. ~ Jonathan Sacks
Behavioural quotes by Jonathan Sacks
In fact there was only one species on the planet more intelligent than dolphins, and they spent a lot of their time in behavioural research laboratories running around inside wheels and conduction frighteningly elegant and subtle experiments on man. The fact that once again man completely misinterpreted this relationship was entirely according to these creatures' plans. ~ Douglas Adams
Behavioural quotes by Douglas Adams
Today, you have neuroscientists working on a genetic, behavioural or cognitive level, and then you have informaticians, chemists and mathematicians. They all have their own understanding of how the brain functions and is structured. How do you get them all around the same table? ~ Henry Markram
Behavioural quotes by Henry Markram
Awareness Is The First Critical Step To Release Yourself From The Slavery Of The Mind". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
One Reason Why Many People Suffer In Relationships Is Because They Unrealistically Expect Themselves And The Others To Be Perfect". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Pausing To Breathe Slows You Down Physically, Calms You Mentally And Rejuvenates You Spiritually". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
We're shameless in overlooking our own faults, but graceless in letting go another's. ~ Fakeer Ishavardas
Behavioural quotes by Fakeer Ishavardas
Conflict Of Expectation Is The Seed Of Misery In Relationships". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
We are nice; but we're broken. ~ Mitta Xinindlu
Behavioural quotes by Mitta Xinindlu
It's In Applying, Even If Little, That Knowledge Becomes Realization". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Encouraging Others Is The Best Gift You Can Give To Yourself". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Personally, I don't see old economics and behavioural economics as opposed. It is useful to assume people are rational as a good approximation to their long term behaviour, but it would be unwise not to think how in practice their behaviour may deviate from that simplifying assumption. ~ Evan Davis
Behavioural quotes by Evan Davis
Neuroscience seems to show that many emotional and behavioural problems we thought were caused by bad parents or trauma are also caused by wiring that isn't reversible. This explains why self-improvement is hard and sometimes impossible, even when we're strong willed and well guided. In other words, we're often fucked. ~ Michael I. Bennett
Behavioural quotes by Michael I. Bennett
And that will be on my medical records for ever.
Everyone will always know I'm a nutter. Behavioural problems. I'm just a bloody label ...
A label written on a white board in a single room without a radio, in a place where everyone else was at least 20 years older than me. Can't think about it. It's anger that goes nowhere. ~ Rae Earl
Behavioural quotes by Rae Earl
Suffering Never Comes From A Joyful Heart. It Only Comes From The Space Of Suffering". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Leadership Is All About Character And Inspiration, And Not Position And Manipulation". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
What is Life?
(1) Tale told by an idiot full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
(2) Dictionary definition in biology (chemical process within organic entities involving metabolism etc.)
(3) Mrs Woolf: 'Life is a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness to the end.'
(4) Series of actual and hypothetical behavioural data which differ in certain assignable ways from data defining dead or inanimate entities.
(5) That which the Lord infused into Adam. See Genesis 1. 4 [sc. 2. 7].
Which?
Mental Cramp. ~ Isaiah Berlin
Behavioural quotes by Isaiah Berlin
An Effective Leader Seeks To Understand And Address The Needs Of His Team Before Seeking The Fulfillment Of His Own Needs". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
The best way to detect the destructive element in someone is to watch closely their behavioural pattern when given authority over poverty. ~ Michael Bassey Johnson
Behavioural quotes by Michael Bassey Johnson
The experience of stress has three components. The first is the event, physical or emotional, that the organism interprets as threatening. This is the stress stimulus, also called the stressor. The second element is the processing system that experiences and interprets the meaning of the stressor. In the case of human beings, this processing system is the nervous system, in particular the brain. The final constituent is the stress response, which consists of the various physiological and behavioural adjustments made as a reaction to a perceived threat.

We see immediately that the definition of a stressor depends on the processing system that assigns meaning to it. The shock of an earthquake is a direct threat to many organisms, though not to a bacterium. The loss of a job is more acutely stressful to a salaried employee whose family lives month to month than to an executive who receives a golden handshake. Equally important is the personality and current psychological state of the individual on whom the stressor is acting. The executive whose financial security is assured when he is terminated may still experience severe stress if his self-esteem and sense of purpose were completely bound up with his position in the company, compared with a colleague who finds greater value in family, social interests or spiritual pursuits. The loss of employment will be perceived as a major threat by the one, while the other may see it as an opportunity.

There is no u ~ Gabor Mate
Behavioural quotes by Gabor Mate
Since the web is totally worldwide, we need a set of behavioural rules, laws they are commonly called, that are accepted worldwide. There is a big difference as to how things are treated in the U.S. and Europe and Asia. ~ Robert Cailliau
Behavioural quotes by Robert Cailliau
To Win Trust Is Bigger Than To Get Love". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Economists are behavioural psychologists, but they think more is better; they want to make everyone richer. They should pause. More's not necessarily better ~ David Hemenway
Behavioural quotes by David Hemenway
I've had a lot of cognitive behavioural therapy, and am having a family now. ~ Trisha Goddard
Behavioural quotes by Trisha Goddard
If only one can could know the essential natures of things, one might discover the ultimate reasons why they behave as they do: for the essential nature or essence of anything... if only it were truly adequate, all the behavioural properties of that thing must follow necessarily. ~ David Hume
Behavioural quotes by David Hume
God Sees The Future And Arranges Our Present While We See The Present And Plan Our Future". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Integrity Means To Do What You Say And Honesty Is To Say What You Do". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
Often What Comes As Free, Targets Your Choice And Freedom-The Aim Is Not To Get Your Money But You". ~ Venugopal Acharya
Behavioural quotes by Venugopal Acharya
In my lifelong study of the scores of species of ants to be found in the tropical forests of Dal Hon, I am led to the conviction that all forms of life are engaged in a struggle to survive, and that within each species there exists a range of natural but variable proclivities, of physical condition and of behaviour, which in turn weighs for or against in the battle to survive and procreate. Further, it is my suspicion that in the act of procreation, such traits are passed on. By extension, one can see that ill traits reduce the likelihood of both survival and procreation. On the basis of these notions, I wish to propose to my fellow scholars at this noble gathering a law of survival that pertains to all forms of life. But before I do so, I must add one more caveat, drawn from the undeniable behavioural characteristics of, in my instance of speciality, ants. To whit, success of one form of life more often than not initiates devastating population collapse among competitors, and indeed, sometimes outright extinction. And that such annihilation of rivals may in fact be a defining feature of success.
Thus, my colleagues, I wish to propose a mode of operation among all forms of life, which I humbly call-in my four-volume treatise-'The Betrayal of the Fittest'.

Unta, Malazan Empire, 1097 Burn's Sleep ~ Steven Erikson
Behavioural quotes by Steven Erikson
[M]aking a show was better cover than trying to stay inconspicuous; Western capitalism in particular allowed the rich just about the right amount of behavioural leeway to account for the oddities our alienness might produce. ~ Iain M. Banks
Behavioural quotes by Iain M. Banks
Interestingly, human irrationality is a hot topic in economics at the moment. Behavioural economics it's called, on the cusp of economics and psychology. ~ Evan Davis
Behavioural quotes by Evan Davis
People may chuckle appreciatively at a male turkey that tries to mate with a poor rendition of a female's [suspended] head, but if you then point out that many a human male regularly gets aroused after looking at two-dimensional representations of a nude woman, they don't see the connection. ~ Robert Wright
Behavioural quotes by Robert Wright
I have been in a youth hostel ... You are put in a kitchen with seventeen venture scouts with behavioural difficulties and made to wash swedes. ~ Victoria Wood
