Choose is not a simple task. Not about what, but how.
"Choices ... We cannot go back. That’s why it’s hard to choose. You have to make the right choice. As long as you don’t choose, everything remains possible." - Mr. Nobody (2009)
The best way to love someone is to try to understand.
Occam's razor
We think diversity makes our lives richer. But this only confuses, creating the illusion of being able to change the choice.
Solution: "entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity" - Barry, C.M., "Who sharpened Occam's Razor"
Pigeon superstition
"Like most living creatures, the pigeon quickly associates the pressing of the level with the reward. But when a timer releases a seed automatically every 20 seconds, the pigeon wonders, what did I do to deserve this? If it was flapping its wings at the time, it will continue to flap, convinced that its actions have the decisive influence on what happens. We call this "pigeon superstition"." - Nemo, Mr. Nobody (2009)
There are times when we feel like hostages of the situation
"What did I do to deserve this?" - Nemo, Mr. Nobody (2009)
Solution: learn new and look at life on another angle

"Systems thinking is a way of making sense of the complexity of the world by looking at it in terms of wholes and relationships rather than by splitting it down into its parts." - Magnus Ramage and Karen Shipp, Systems Thinkers
We intuitively divide life into parts and try to live in parts
Solution: life is not made of parts
"There are no ordinary moments" - Dan Millman, Way of the Peaceful Warrior: A Book That Changes Lives
"You must understand the whole of life, not just one part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, why you must sing, dance and write poems, and suffer, and understand, for all that is life." - Krishnamurti, Think on These Things
Alexander Griboyedov, The Woes of Wit
Genre: comedy
The funny thing about this is that people who just heard about this book think that the genre is drama. That's idea of several meanings.
Solution: the happiness of wit
Change everything
The future is a hypothetical segment of the time line, a set of events that have not yet happened, but may happen.
How to achieve the future?
Solution: think of it
We have a tendency to return to the old scenario because of the habit - this is the principle of saving energy...
Real Kiss
Why is it so hard for us to believe in love? Some childhood trauma? Or is it in our genetics?
There is no easy solution here. Not the one who is loved, but the one who tries to love should be convinced of this.
It is very important to believe the one will succeed.
Love for company
Classic behavior is when you are loved or you love only when you have some profit of this. We call it market relationships.
The problem is not that we call it like this, but the pattern of behaviour when we have a trend to get profit, and not to make the relationships better.
Solution: this way we also think of ourselves
P.S. Such a task is for two sides
How to stop smoking?
It is very important to understand the motives of your behavior. The range of attitudes strongly influences what habits we form.
You can perceive a cigarette as an element of style, or as an element that brings a large amount of taxes etc.
Any behavior is a balance of "revenge" and "self-sacrifice" motives.
Solution: understand the motive for any action
“Living this life, it takes more than a mask. It takes discipline.” - Oliver Queen, The Flash
Big delusion
To think people purse the same goals and have the same values as you do.
Solution: moral
There is always a dissonance between expectations and reality
