Albert Einstein’dan hayatla ilgili 10 tavsiye

Albert Einstein’dan hayatla ilgili 10 tavsiye

Albert Einstein çoğu insan tarafından dahi olarak görülür. Şu ana kadar yaşamış en etkili bilim insanı olmanın yanında teorik fizikçi, filozof ve yazardı. Bilime birçok katkı sağlamış Einstein’ın başarı sırlarını merak ediyor musunuz?

İşte Einstein’dan 10 hayat dersi…

1. Merakınızın peşinden gidin
“Benim özel bir yeteneğim yok. Yalnızca tutkulu bir meraklıyım.”
Sizin merakınızı çeken nedir? Neyi en çok merak ediyorsunuz? Benim merak ettiğim neden bazı insanların başarılı olup bazılarının olamadığıdır. Bu yüzden yıllarca başarı üzerine çalıştım. Merakınızın peşinden giderseniz başarıya ulaşırsınız

2. Azim paha biçilmezdir
“Çok zeki olduğumdan değil, sorunlarla uğraşmaktan vazgeçmediğimden başarıyorum.”
Belirlediğiniz yolun sonuna ulaşacak kadar sabırlı mısınız? Posta pullarının gideceği yere varasıya kadar mektuba yapışıp kalmasından ötürü çok değerli olduğu söylenir. Posta pulu gibi olun ve başladığınız işi bitirin.

3. Bugüne odaklanın
” Güzel bir kızı öperken düzgün araba kullanan birisi, öpücüğe hak ettiği dikkati vermiyor demektir.”
İki atı aynı anda süremezsiniz. Bir şeyler yapabilirsiniz ama her şeyi yapamazsınız. Şimdiye odaklanın ve bütün enerjinizi şu anda yaptığınız işe verin.

4. Hayal gücü güç verir
“Hayal gücü her şeydir. Sizi bekleyen güzelliklerin önizlemesi gibidir. Hayal gücü bilgiden daha önemlidir.”
Hayal gücünüz geleceğinizi belirler. Einstein şöyle der: ‘Zekanın gerçek göstergesi hayal gücüdür, bilgi değil’. Bu yüzden hayal gücünüzün hantallaşmasına izin vermeyin.

5. Hata yapın
“Hiç hata yapmamış bir insan yeni bir şey denememiş demektir.”
Hata yapmaktan korkmayın. Eğer nasıl okuyacağınızı bilirseniz hatalar sizi daha iyi bir konuma getirebilir. Başarılı olmak istiyorsanız yaptığınız hataları üçe katlayın.

6. Anı yaşayın
“Ben geleceği hiç düşünmem, ne de olsa gelecektir.”
Geleceği ayarlamanın tek yolu olabilidiğiniz kadar şimdide olmaktır. Şu anda dünü ya da yarını değiştiremezsiniz. Önemli olan tek an şimdidir.

7. Değer yaratın
” Başarılı olmaya değil, değerli olmaya çalışın.”
Zamanınızı başarılı olmak için harcamayın, değerler yaratın. Eğer değerli olursanız başarı kendiliğinden gelecektir.

8. Farklı sonuçlar beklemeyin
“Delilik: Aynı şeyleri tekrar tekrar yapıp farklı sonuçlar beklemek.”
Hergün aynı rutinde yaşayarak farklı görünmeyi bekleyemezsiniz. Hayatınızın değişmesini istiyorsanız kendinizi değiştirmelisiniz.

9. Bilgi deneyimden gelir
Bilgi malumat değildir. Bilmenin tek yolu deneyimlemektir.”
Bir konuyu tartışabilirsiniz ama bu size sadece felsefi bir anlayış kazandırır. Bir konuyu bilmek istiyorsanız onu deneyimlemelisiniz.

10. Kuralları öğrenin, daha iyi oynayın
” Oyunun kurallarını öğrenmek zorundasınız. Böylece herkesten iyi oynayabilirsiniz.”
 Yapmanız gereken iki şey var. Birincisi oynadığınız oyunun kurallarını öğrenmek. İkincisi ise oyunu herkesten iyi oynamayı istemek. Bu iki şeyi yaparsanız başarı sizinle olur!.

ATAMA DEMEDIYIM SÖZLERİM

Atama heç vaxt demədiyim arzularım!

Sözsüz, atam yaşlıdır 5, ya da 10 ilə, - fərq etməz, haçansa doğulan bir gün də həyata əlvida söyləyir, - dünyasını dəyişən zaman, yəni müsəlman olaraq məzara qoyulanda - Yasin oxunanda, pıçıldayacağam bunları.

Ki, o dünyada (əlbəttə, əgər varsa, hələliksə mən də başqaları kimi özümü romantik yalanla aldadım) indi sizinlə bölüşəcəyim arzuları heç olmasa gerçəkləşdirsin...

Axı o aləmdə də uşaqlıq, yeniyetməlik, gənclik, cavanlıq və qocalığımız olacaq da, zamanı susduran deyil ki, Yaradan...

Ata, ataca, mən hələ uşaq olanda sənə demək istəyirdim hər dəfə (amma bilirdim ki, sənin imkanların dardır, məndən başqa da övlad böyüdür, qohum-əqrabaya, qonşulara əl tuturdun - elin tanınmışı olmaq nə pis... Və o adəti indi mən yaşadaraq, hamını bəzəyən, özüm lüt gəzən iynəyə bənzəyirəm...):

* Mən də bütün uşaqlar kimi çox şey istəyirdim, atacan, heç olmasa indi uşaq arzularımı açım sənin üçün...

* Lap körpəlikdə çoxlu şokalad istəyirdim, sonra velosiped sürmək, göyərçin uçurtmaq, it saxlamaq, yeni kitablar almaq keçirdi ürəyimdən...

* ...Keçirdi nədir e, lap ürəyimi kəsirdi...

* Fəqət bu arzularımı dilimə gətirəmmirdim, bilirdim ki, sən onsuz da yerinə yetirməyəcəksən, ya da imkanın olmayacaq...

* Uşağın gözündə atanın sınması mənə dəhşətli gəlirdi: səni indiyəcən də həzm edə bilməsəm də, çox sevirdim...

* İstəyirdim dostum olasan, mənə gecələr nağıllar danışasan, gündüzlər kitab oxuyasan, axşamlar kinoya aparasan...

* Təzə paltar və ayaqqabı istəyi isə indi də içimi göynədir...

* Amma bütün bunlar bir yana, mənə çox vaxt ayırmağını istəyirdim, atacan, bilsəydin sənsiz necə mənə çətin və ruhuma soyuq idi...

* İndi bunları yazıram və gözümdəki yaş nəmli xatirələr kimi ruhumu silkələyir...

* Ata, atacan, sən niyə mənə az sevgi verdin, axı onda mənim buna çox böyük ehtiyacım vardı, axı mən səni sevridm...

* Ata sevgisindən böyük sevinc və xoşbəxtlikmi olacaq?..

WELCOME TO AZERBAIJAN.



Today, we would like to talk about a miraculous country of Azerbaijan with its unlimited natural resources, centuries-old culture, history and ancient people, whose lifestyle presents a unique and harmonious combination of the traditions and ceremonies of different cultures and civilizations.

Azerbaijan is a geographical name. On the one hand this name is linked with the population, which lived in this region for thousand of years before our era, and who were mostly fire-worshippers. Local population considered that fire was their God and so they worshipped the fire. "Azer" means fire. The Turkic name "Azer" was used for this territory for a long time. The word "Azer" consists of two parts - "az" and "er". In Turkic languages, "az" means a good intention and a fate of success. Thus, the word "Azer" means "a brave man", "a brave boy", "the fire keeper". The word "Azerbaijan" originates from the name of an ancient Turkish tribe, who resided in those territories.

Azerbaijan is one of the most ancient sites of humankind. The humankind was present here at every stage of their historical development. There were living settlements in Azerbaijan even at the earliest stages of humankind. Azerbaijan made its own contribution into the establishment of the current culture and civilization, progress and dialectics.
Azerbaijan is currently involved into the implementation of huge energy projects. Oil and gas projects are successfully implemented in the Azeri Caspian sector. Azerbaijan is a country, which plays an extremely important role in the Caspian and Caucasian regions, particularly in the development of transport infrastructure in the Caucasus and the implementation of energy projects. It was the region's first country to explore the huge energy potential, to form an absolutely new economic model in the regional development, and to expand political and economic relations between Europe and Asia
CULTURE.

One of the world's most ancient nations - the nation of Azerbaijan - has the right to feel proud for its history, material and cultural monuments, literature, arts and music heritage.

Wonderful nature, climate, natural resources of the country produced a significant impact on artistic thinking and creation skills of Azerbaijani people as well. In spite of a long and difficult way undergone by different types of arts in Azerbaijan, they still represent a unity and provide outstanding opportunities for the creation of a full idea of fine arts of Azerbaijan. The folk arts of Azerbaijan are multi-colored, complete and rich, as its natural resources. The folk art is connected with daily life of people and daily life occupies a very special life in the fine arts as well. Folk arks cover a long period from ancient times to nowadays and including a variety of products from garments to housing goods and decoration.

Quite obviously, the style of life, aesthetic tastes, the national image and qualities, are strongly reflected in folk arts. One can easily come across numerous wonderful models of Azerbaijani folk arts in the world's largest museums. The pieces of arts created by the skillful hands of Tabriz, Nakhichevan, Gandja, Gazakh, Guba, Naku, Shaki, Shamakhi and Nagorny Kharabakh can be found in large museum collections of Victoria and Albert of London, Louvers of Paris, Metropoliten of Vashington and Vienna, Rome, Berlin, Istanbul, Tehran, Cairo museums.
.
MUSIC.
Azerbaijani music was developing through the centuries. The traces of ancient music of Azerbaijan were found in a number of monuments, excavated in time of archeological digs, as well as in rock carvings of Gobustan (18-3 millennium B.C) and Gemigaya (3-1 millennium B.C). Kitabi Dede Gorgud (8th century), creative works of Nizami, Fizuli provide full coverage of medieval music art, music genres and music instruments. The records of such prominent medieval scientists of Azerbaijan as Sefiaddin Urmevi (18 century), Abdulgadir Maragai (17 century), Mir Movsum Nevvab (19 century) pointed out the highly developed art and culture of music and mastery performance and cited theoretical issues of music in medieval Azerbaijan.
U.Hadjibeyov is also the founder of musical comedy in Azerbaijan. Musical comedies of social character ("Husband and Wife", 1910, "Either this or that, 1911, Arshyn Mal Alan, 1913) based on composed folklore songs and dance music. His musical comedy Arshyn Mal Alan (staged in 1913) was a great success.
The comedy was translated into English, German, Chinese, Arabic, Persian, Polish, Ukrainian, Belarus, Georgian and other languages (nearly 70 languages), staged in 120 theater in Moscow, Istanbul, New-York, Paris, London, Teheran, Cairo, Beijing, Berlin, Warsaw, Sofia, Budapest, Bucharest and other cities and repeatedly put on screen (in Baku, 1916-1917, in USA in the 1930th, in Soviet Azerbaijan, in 1945 and 1960). With Rashid Behbutov (1915-1989), playing the principal role, the opera gained worldwide popularity. The popular actor of the USSR R.Behbudov sang folklore and composed songs, played the role of Balash of the opera Sevil by F.Amirov. He was also the founder and leader of the theater "Mahny"

REGIONS.
Azerbaijan is characterized by a diversed landscape. There are two major forms of landscape-plains and mountains.
Mountains cover 60% of the total area of the Azerbaijan republic.
The principle geomorphological structures of Azerbaijan Republic -Major Caucasus, Minor Caucasus (with Garabagh plateau) and Talysh mountains surround the Kur-Araz lowland in the north, west and south-east. The Nakhichevan Autonomous Republic is situated in the mid course of the River Araz and within the boundaries of Zengezur and Dereleyez chains of mountains, fringing with the river.Talysh mountains cover the south-east of the country. They are composed mainly of Tertiary sediments. Talysh mountains are the chain of transition from Minor Caucasus to Elbrus mountains in Iran. They consist of three mountain chains, reaching 2477 meters in height and a number of their ranges.

Kur-Araz lowland lies on the area between Major and Minor Caucasus and Talysh Mountains. As the largest intermontane lowland in the entire Transcaucasia it covers the central part of the country.

The Kur and Araz rivers divide the lowland into five plains: Shirvan, Qarabagh, Mil, Mughan and Salyan plains. Samur-Devechi lowland, resting on Qusar sloping plain on the Caspian Sea shore, streches from Absheron peninsula to the north. Lenkeran lowland runs from the Absheron Peninsula to the south on the foothills of Talysh mountains. Kur-Araz, Samur-Devechi, Lenkeran lowlands and most part of the Absheron peninsula lie below sea leve

TOURISM.
In September 2001 the Republic of Azerbaijan elected competent member of Universal Tourism Organisation (UTO). It gave us opportunity to vote at the Chief Assembly and other measurements of UTO and to integrate world tourism family using the experience in the sphere of tourism of progressive states.

Bilateral and multilateral relations establish and develop also with within the frames of the Organisations of Islamic Conference(OIC), the Organisation of Economic Cooperation of the Black Sea(OECBS), GUUAM, the Organisation of Economic Cooperation (OEC), ESCAP, OECD, the Council of Tourism of UIS members, and other regional and global organisations.

The delegation of the ministry participated in the 15th session of the Chief Assembly of the UTO held in Peking, China, in the OIC conferences of the ministers of tourism of member-states held in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Malaysia and the meetings of working group of OECBS on the sphere of Tourism held in Greece, Turkey and Albania.

The Ministry of Culture and Tourism held the International Conference on "Tourism opportunities in OECBS region" with the participation of the deputies of the ministers of tourism of OECBS member-states in Baku.

The Republic of Azerbaijan has been also represented in the meetings of the Council of Tourism of UIS members held in Yalta, Moscow, the city Kishinyov in the republic of Moldova. Particular attention in the sphere of tourism is paid to bilateral relations.

The Ministry of Culture and Tourism established intensive relations with the state tourism entities of Turkish Republic, the Republic of Australia, the Republic of Greece, Russian Federation, the Republic of Georgia, Ukraine and the Republic of Uzbekistan and constantly held meetings with them.
As a predominantly mountainous country, Azerbaijan is surrounded by the Major Caucasus, Minor Caucasus, Talysh and North Iranian Mountains. The Kur lowland between the Major and Minor Caucasus, stretches to the Caspian Sea in the eastern part of the country. The Major Caucasus, situated in the north of the country and stretching from the north-west to the south-east, protects the country from direct influences of cold air masses, coming from the north. That leads to the formation of subtropical climate on most foothills and plains of the country. Other mountain chains, surrounding the country also have a great impact on air circulation. The complexity of a landscape causes nonuniform formation of climatic zones and creates vertical climate zones, etc

THE FORTY RULES OF LOVE - Summary

An American housewife is transformed by an intriguing manuscript about the Sufi mystic poet Rumi

In this lyrical, exuberant follow-up to her 2007 novel, The Bastard of Istanbul, acclaimed Turkish author Elif Shafak unfolds two tantalizing parallel narratives- one contemporary and the other set in the thirteenth century, when Rumi encountered his spiritual mentor, the whirling dervish known as Shams of Tabriz-that together incarnate the poet´s timeless message of love.

Ella Rubenstein is forty years old and unhappily married when she takes a job as a reader for a literary agent. Her first assignment is to read and report on Sweet Blasphemy, a novel written by a man named Aziz Zahara. Ella is mesmerized by his tale of Shams´s search for Rumi and the dervish´s role in transforming the successful but unhappy cleric into a committed mystic, passionate poet, and advocate of love. She is also taken with Shams´s lessons, or rules, that offer insight into an ancient philosophy based on the unity of all people and religions, and the presence of love in each and every one of us. As she reads on, she realizes that Rumi´s story mirrors her own and that Zahara-like Shams-has come to set her free.

Civilizations


The Maya civilization extended throughout the present-day southern Mexican states of Chiapas, Tabasco, and the Yucatán Peninsula states of Quintana Roo, Campeche and Yucatán. The Maya area also extended throughout the northern Central American region, including the present-day nations of Guatemala, Belize, Northern El Salvador and western Honduras.

The Maya area is generally divided into three loosely defined zones: the southern Maya highlands, the central lowlands, and the northern lowlands. The southern Maya highlands include all of elevated terrain in Guatemala and the Chiapas highlands. The southern lowlands lie just north of the highlands, and incorporate the Mexican states of Campeche and Quintana Roo and northern Guatemala, Belize and El Salvador. The northern lowlands cover the remainder of the Yucatán Peninsula, including the Puuc hills
The Maya area was initially inhabited around the 10th century BC. Recent discoveries of Maya occupation at Cuello in Belize have been carbon dated to around 2600 BC.[2][3] This level of occupation included monumental structures. The Maya calendar, which is based around the so-called Mesoamerican Long Count calendar, commences on a date equivalent to 11 August, 3114 BC. However — according to "accepted history" — the first clearly “Maya” settlements were established in approximately 1800 BC in the Soconusco region of the Pacific Coast. This period, known as the Early Preclassic,[4] was characterized by sedentary communities and the introduction of pottery and fired clay figurines
Mayanists have been increasingly accepting a "court paradigm" of Classic Maya societies which puts the emphasis on the centrality of the royal household and especially the person of the king. This approach focuses on Maya monumental spaces as the embodiment of the diverse activities of the royal household. It considers the role of places and spaces (including dwellings of royalty and nobles, throne rooms, temples, halls and plazas for public ceremonies) in establishing power and social hierarchy, and also in projecting aesthetic and moral values to define the wider social realm.

Spanish sources invariably describe even the largest Maya settlements as dispersed collections of dwellings grouped around the temples and palaces of the ruling dynasty and lesser nobles. None of the Classic Maya cities shows evidence of economic specialization and commerce of the scale of Mexican Tenochtitlan. Instead, Maya cities could be seen as enormous royal households, the locales of the administrative and ritual activities of the royal court. They were the places where privileged nobles could approach the holy ruler, where aesthetic values of the high culture were formulated and disseminated and where aesthetic items were consumed. They were the self-proclaimed centers and the sources of social, moral, and cosmic order. The fall of a royal court as in the well-documented cases of Piedras Negras or Copan would cause the inevitable "death" of the associated settlement.The Maya writing system (often called hieroglyphs from a superficial resemblance to the Ancient Egyptian writing) was a combination of phonetic symbols and logograms. It is most often classified as a logographic or (more properly) a logosyllabic writing system, in which syllabic signs play a significant role. It is the only writing system of the Pre-Columbian New World which is known to represent the spoken language of its community. In total, the script has more than a thousand different glyphs, although a few are variations of the same sign or meaning, and many appear only rarely or are confined to particular localities. At any one time, no more than around 500 glyphs were in use, some 200 of which (including variations) had a phonetic or syllabic interpretation.

Mathematics Maya numerals In common with the other Mesoamerican civilizations, the Maya used a base 20 (vigesimal) and base 5 numbering system (see Maya numerals). Also, the preclassic Maya and their neighbors independently developed the concept of zero by 36 BC. Inscriptions show them on occasion working with sums up to the hundreds of millions and dates so large it would take several lines just to represent it. They produced extremely accurate astronomical observations; their charts of the movements of the moon and planets are equal or superior to those of any other civilization working from naked eye observation.
Rediscovery of the Pre-Columbian Maya
Spanish clergy and administrators dating to the 16th century were largely familiar with ancient Maya sites, writing and calendar systems. Published writings of 16th century Bishop Diego de Landa and writings of 18th century Spanish officials spurred serious investigations of Maya sites by the late 18th century.[25] In 1839 United States traveler and writer John Lloyd Stephens, familiar with earlier Spanish investigations, visited Copán, Palenque, and other sites with English architect and draftsman Frederick Catherwood. Their illustrated accounts of the ruins sparked strong popular interest in the region and the people, and they have once again regained their position as a vital link in Mesoamerican heritage.

However, in many locations, Maya ruins have been overgrown by the jungle, becoming dense enough to hide structures just a few meters away. To help find ruins, researchers have turned to satellite imagery. The best way to find them is to look at the visible and near-infrared spectra. Due to their limestone construction, the monuments affected the chemical makeup of the soil as they deteriorated. Some moisture-loving plants stayed away, while others were killed off or discolored. The effects of the limestone ruins are still apparent today to some satellite sensors.

Much of the contemporary rural population of the Yucatán Peninsula, Chiapas (both in Mexico), Guatemala and Belize is Maya by descent and primary language.


GALATASARAY..



Galatasaray Spor Kulübü (Turkish pronunciation: [ɡaɫatasaˈɾaj ˈspoɾ kulyˈby], Galatasaray Sports Club) is a Turkish sports club based in Istanbul, most notable for its football section, also known as Galatasaray S.K..

Their first match was against Cadi Keuy FRC and they won this match 2–0. There were discussions about the clubs name, in which some suggested Gloria (victory) and others Audace (courage), but it was decided that its name would be Galatasaray.
According to researcher Cem Atabeyoğlu, Galatasaray took its name from one of its first matches. In that match, Galatasaray won 2–0 over Rûm club and the spectators called them "Galata Sarayı Efendileri" (in English: Gentlemen of Galata (City) Palace), and, after this event, they adopted that name and started to call their club "GalataSaray". In 1905, during the era of the Ottoman Empire, there were no laws for associations so the club could not be registered officially, but, after the 1912 Law of Association, the club registered legally...
