Improve Your Memory in Minutes
I’ve used several memory tricks over the years for such things as remembering grocery lists. I recently came across one that I hadn’t seen before, even though it’s extremely simple. I tried out the method (called “linking”) from a website called buildyourmemory.com and found that I was able to easily memorize a list of 20 items that [...]
The Trap of Perfectionism
I’m recently returned from a week-long conference of study and test-taking in the field of database design (my day-job), and find my mind completely burnt-out by the effort. Rather than wait till I feel especially inspired and creative, I’m going to adapt a lesson from one of my classes.
The class was on “agile” programming. I’ll [...]
Embrace Your Problems
So, I’m at a keynote speech in Las Vegas at a conference about data warehouses. I wasn’t really expecting to find good material for self-improvement here, but Frank Buytendijk, a Dutch management consultant at Oracle, surprised me. The point of his talk was that we Americana have a fear and aversion to “problems” that [...]
Exploring the Fifth Dimension – Parallel Universes, Teleportation and Out-of-Body Travel
Exploring the Fifth Dimension – Parallel Universes, Teleportation and Out-of-Body Travel, by Dr. Bruce Goldberg . Today’s review is for a much more esoteric book than I usually include on the site, but I’m sure that there are quite a few readers who, like me, will be interested in it. I first heard Dr. [...]
The 48 Laws of Power
Today I bring you a very qualified endorsement for a very popular book – The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene. Greene is basically a modern-day Machiavelli, and his book is about how to acquire and hold onto power, by any means available. I nearly put the book down after reading the preface, with [...]
Transcending Fear
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.. (1 Jn 4:18 NKJV)
While fear is less and less a part of my life, there are still several situations that can cause me to panic. One is hypodermic [...]
Eckhart Tolle on Enlightenment
Do we have to SEEK enlightenment, or is seeking enlightenment counterproductive? Should enlightenment be a goal, or should we renounce the search? Different traditions have a different emphasis, and Eckhart reconciles these seeming contradictions in this excellent brief teaching on Enlightenment.

How to Write a Love Poem
So, Valentine’s day is upon us and you still need a wonderful gift. Why not try something that shows more personal effort than a card and will be treasured for years? Poetry makes a wonderful gift, it costs only your time and it is deeply appreciated – even if it isn’t very good (trust [...]
Food Rules
In writing his latest two books, Food Rules and the earlier In Defense of Food, author and professor Michael Pollan had a surprising revelation. With most of his previous (well-researched) books, he found that subjects that seemed to be simple on the surface turned out to be more complx and ambiguous when you looked into [...]
The Habits of Happiness
Today I wanted to inaugurate a new section of Pathstoknowledge.com – our video theater. I have previously used video links in various sections and book reviews when available. Now I thought I’d devote a new section to inspiring video messages, beginning with this “Ted” talk by Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard on the Habits of Happiness
This video was [...]
