World Affairs And Beyond

Thomas S. Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, published in 1962, is a groundbreaking work that reshaped our understanding of science and its evolution. This philosophical masterpiece offers a fresh perspective on how science develops, challenges the conventional linear narrative, and ignited both admiration and controversy. In fact, Kuhn himself recalled that groups in Israel once demanded his book be banned due to its provocative insights. The reason for this backlash lies in his candid examination of the scientific community and its practices. Kuhn, born in 1922 and initially trained as a physicist, shifted his focus to the history of science, motivated by a deep interest in how scientific knowledge evolves over time. His experiences during the World Wars also influenced his thinking, contributing to his understanding of how worldviews change in both individual cognition and scientific paradigms. His observations culminated in the idea that the progression of science ...

Success is a concept that varies as widely as individual experiences themselves. It's deeply personal, subjective, and can take many forms. At its essence, success involves not just achieving a final outcome but the process of working towards a meaningful goal. Earl Nightingale defined success as "the progressive realization of a worthy ideal," underscoring that success isn't only about the destination but the journey toward a goal that holds personal significance. A "worthy ideal" could be anything from a professional milestone to a personal dream, and as long as an individual makes steady progress toward achieving it, they are considered successful. Success, then, is both the achievement itself and the process of striving toward it. What makes success unique is that it cannot be universally defined or compared. One person might view success as earning top grades, while another may see it as gaining admission to their ideal college. For some, success could ...

One key factor in enhancing personal happiness is carving out time for yourself—achieving what can be termed as "time affluence." When you hear the word "affluence," you might think of wealth, abundance, or material prosperity. Indeed, a quick search defines affluence as "the state of having a great deal of money." Synonyms like opulence, riches, and fortune often come to mind, and images of money or gold are likely to appear. We’ve long associated affluence with financial success, and while money can certainly contribute to happiness by meeting basic needs and providing luxury, research has shown that beyond a certain point, additional wealth doesn’t significantly boost happiness. What’s more valuable than financial wealth is the concept of time affluence. Time affluence, as defined by researchers, is the feeling that one has enough time to engage in meaningful activities, reflect, and enjoy leisure. On the flip side, time poverty is characterized by cons...

 This guy sells jewelry in Peshawar Saddar. The street is called "Gora Bazar". He had an uncanny resemblance with James Franco. I didn't have my DSLR on me otherwise I would have taken a better photo. If you get a chance to visit Peshawar Saddar, do meet up with him and take some more photos of this gentleman who will certainly impress you, and do share them here.  If you have to buy artificial jewelry, do buy from him since he is a thorough gentleman.
