My physiotherapist manipulated my swollen Achilles tendon. “So, how far do you run every day?” she asked. “Mmm, about 14 km a day,” I replied. “What’s your time?” she asked. “5 minutes 45 seconds a kilometre,” I replied.
“You have Tendonitis. Reduce your running to 8 – 10 km every other day, slow down your time and avoid hills,” she commanded.
It has been quite a blow since I’m training for the Comrades Marathon in June and this has put a crimp on my plans.
So, for the past two weeks I run 10 km at a pace of 6 minutes a kilometre every other day. I feel as if I’ve gone backwards. I feel as if all my hard work is for nought.
But have I gone backwards? How many folks would like to be able to run 10 kilometres in 6 minutes a kilometre? How many folks would be able to run 10 kilometres in any time? Something that I’m doing injured. What I think of as a failure at the moment would be a huge achievement for them.
I’ve forgotten that I’ve never averaged 5 minutes 45 seconds a kilometre in all the years I’ve been at it. And, it’s closer to 5 minutes a kilometre when I run at the coast. It has only been since July 2016 that I’ve started averaging this time. Before this I’ve clocked in at around 6 minutes 10 seconds a kilometre. Even running injured I’m still doing doing better times than I’ve ever done before. And, I’m doing it at 53. This has to be some kind of achievement.
I think I’ve come far when it comes to running, at least.
If I dig a little deeper, I find that I’ve come far in a lot of other areas besides running. As a writer I’ve notched up a solid record of writing. I have more than 3 million words under my belt; six book and close on 400 articles published. As a professional speaker and trainer, I’ve conducted more than 500 interventions. I’ve spoken in Iran, Australia and Italy. So, I think I’ve come a little further than I thought I had and had some fun in the process too.
I’ll bet if you dig a bit you’ll realise that you’ve also come a lot further than you thought. You’ve achieved more than you ever hoped you would. And, sometimes you have surprised yourself and achieved things you never thought you would. You are valuable and valued by all those you come into contact with.
Your path and purpose may not always be clear. But know that the world has been waiting just for you. It’s waiting for you to pitch up. It’s waiting for you to claim your destiny.
Go on, look how far you’ve already come and look how far you still have to go. Look at how much you’ve done and how much you can still do. Look at how much you’ve grown (even though you think you haven’t). This must fill you with excitement. If you’re standing and conscious it means that you’re still in the race. You still have a crack at fulfilling your heart’s desire.
Look how far you’ve come. Be still. Be grateful.
Lectures 19 and 20: The Boring Lecture - Valuable Life Strategies for Escapin...Fahri Karakas
ART DESCRIPTION/SYNOPSIS: "THE BORING LECTURE"
“Curiosity and creativity are the new productivity.”
Dr. Fahri Karakas
Despite the abundance of entertainment media at the touch of our fingertips, we easily feel bored these days and we desperately want to escape from our mundane lives. Boredom strikes us particularly hard when we feel trapped by endless tasks, responsibilities, habits, and routines in our lives. We want to escape and immerse ourselves in new worlds – perhaps worlds that are more colorful, exciting, rich, and novel. We seek adventures to save us from all the baggage, drudgery, stress, and anxiety that surrounds us.
‘The Boring Lecture’ invites you to new possibilities and exciting life strategies to escape from boredom. It takes a bit of imagination, courage, and experimentation to get out of boredom (the rut). We will try to escape monotony and mediocrity through embracing uncertainty, curiosity, and wonder. Towards this goal, we take on a cross-disciplinary tour and explore geeks, mavericks, eccentric artists, weirdoes, crazy entrepreneurs, inventors, dreamers, mind-expanding authors, and insane filmmakers. As we travel from the sublime to the ridiculous, we will expand our sense of what is possible. Asteroids, stars, black holes, computer games, books, and movies will accompany us on our wonderful journey.
We will travel through our body, our mind, our sleep, and our dreams. We will try to solve two dozens of mini-puzzles and we will experiment with a dozen mini-learning adventures. We will explore future disruptive innovations and potential trillionaire sectors. We will learn about the new gold rush: The space economy. Finally, we will fly through space and land on Mars. We will learn about the Mars Generation and imagine what daily life might look like on the red planet.
This will be a wild tour – far from boring - are you ready?

Key Takeaways
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
