Inspired Minds Think Alike

As a researcher and storyteller about people who make a large positive impact on the world and what they do differently, I have seen that individuals who have the real “goods” to inspire others have something that other folks don’t. In fact, they 1 several critical traits that enliven us, light a spark inside of us, and make us want to be better, stronger and bigger.

* They have used all of themselves to make a difference

Look at the most popular TED talks that have gone viral and touched millions of people, and you will see people who struggled in their past but decided to use what they had 2 experienced to learn more, dig deeper, and finally, help 3 positive change for others. These in-spirers have grown 4 being totally authentic(本真的)and open about who they really are. They no longer worry about being rejected, scorned or put down. They have grown beyond feeling that they have to hide or suppress parts of themselves in order to be accepted. And it is their very 5 to use all of themselves -- openly and courageously -- that inspires and encourages us to do the same.

* They express love and appreciation openly, and have deep empathy for others.

Those who inspire us to be better are fully capable of experiencing empathy, and they openly express their ability to understand our personal “stories” and what we feel deep down. Instead of overprotecting us, they 6 who we are inside. This makes us feel 7 about reyealing our more authentic selves to others and allows for us to even more fully broaden the definition and sense we have of our own 8 all without having to worry about being embarrassed in the process. Love and acceptance is at the basis of what they do. Look at those who have made the biggest positive difference throughout history. Invariably, there is compassion and appreciation at that heart of who they are and what they stand for.

* They believe in collective power

Those who inspire others believe in collective power so that positive change can happen more quickly. Their focus is not directed at 9 or solely trying to build up their own wealth, power and influence. They want to see others rise, grow and expand. That’s what fuels them and motivates their actions, business, and growth strategies. In doing so, they can become wealthy, powerful and influential, but this is only a by-product of their focus, which is directed at expanding collective strength and power, while working to 10 that whatever they do continues to make a positive impact on the world.

Which of theses traits inspires you most to be more of yourself?

How to tell if you’re living with ‘quiet stress’

The term “quiet stress” is gathering pace among experts. According to them, it’s an often 1 form of the more widely known version, which is characterized by visible 2 : swearing shouting, and anger.

“We quietly 3 our stress within: we don’t speak up about how we actually feel, because of which we become inactive. We stay in unhappy relationships and 4 jobs. We feel overwhelmed, yet ignore important tasks. Quiet stress creates a form of emotional paralysis (麻痹) that keeps us 5 in unhappy situations,” says Jillian Lavender, who runs the London Meditation Centre.

Cary Cooper, a professor of psychology and health at the University of Manchester, compares the effects of quiet stress to shrapnel (散弹): “You can learn to 6 your stress responses, but eventually the stress will emerge: as well as an immune system that stops working well, you may withdraw socially, isolate yourself and begin to engage in unhealthy 7 like comfort eating or drinking too much. Despite getting a bad reputation over the years, expressing anger of frustration is far healthier than smiling 8 while feeling quietly stressed.

A recent study from Stanford University in the US backs this theory up. The researchers found that seeing stress as a helpful part of dealing with life’s challenges, rather than as something to be avoided, was associated with better health, 9 wellbeing and productivity at work.

“Stress isn’t always harmful” said Kelly McGonigal, a business school lecturer at Stanford who worked on the study. “Once you 10 that going through stress makes you better at it, it can be easier to face each new challenge.”

Lego: One Step Closer to Being Sustainable

The Lego Group is one step closer to reaching its goal of making all its products from sustainable materials by 2030.

The Danish toymaker revealed a prototype (雏形) brick made from 1 plastic. In a news release, Lego said the PET plastic from 2 bottles makes up the first brick to meet the company’s “strict quality and safety requirements.” One way the company 3 safety is by sourcing materials from suppliers that use processes approved by the US Food & Drug Administration and European Food Safety Authority.

“The biggest 4 on our sustainability journey is rethinking and innovating new materials that are as long-lasting, strong and high quality as our existing bricks—and fit with LEGO elements made over the past 60 years,” Lego Group Vice President of Environmental Responsibility Tim Brooks said. “With this prototype we’re able to 5 the progress we’re making to the public.”

It will be “some time” before bricks made from used materials can be 6 , Lego said. The company will continue to test and develop the PET formulation (配方) and decide whether to move to the 7 production phase, which is expected to take at least a year. One factor the company is testing is how the material can be 8 .

“Experimentation and failing is an important part of learning and 9 . Just as kids build, unbuild and rebuild with LEGO bricks at home, we’re doing the same in our lab,” Brooks said.

The move follows last year’s announcement that the company was making a $400 million investment over three years into sustainability 10 . It included phasing out the single-use plastic bags from its boxes and instead using recyclable paper for its packaging.
