How to Win Friends and Influence People

You've Only Got 3 Seconds

• za vrijeme fakulteta sam trošio puno vremena u self help i business coaching svijetu (čitajući knjige). Ovo su jedine dvije kojima sam se vraćao.
  Malcolm Gladwell je isto ok, ali njegove knjige su bile više anegdotalne i zabavnog karaktera. Nije da sam nešto naučio tbh.

I am currently learning Croatian and I have used several books in the process.

This book is by far the best and most straightforward, "Complete Croatian": https://www.bol.com/nl/p/complete-croatian-teach-yourself/9200000030747470/

You may also want to take a look at "Fluent Forever". I would follow and use all of the strategies in there. The book was created by an engineer who became a multilingual opera singer. Engineers are highly efficient at learning extremely complex subjects, due to their training in solving complex problems: https://www.amazon.com/Fluent-Forever-Learn-Language-Forget/dp/0385348118/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1521216233&sr=1-1&keywords=fluent+forever

Whatever you do, don't watch The Weight of Chains. Please.

edit: you might be interested in Balkan Battlegrounds: A Military History of the Yugoslav Conflict, I haven't read it yet but I know it has cool maps and it's presumably well sourced.

Uredba: eto ponosam sam što imam jedno od najnepopularnijih mišljenja u threadu. Ne trebate mi se zahvaljivati što stavljam OC na stol i potičem raspravu. Kys



Veliki broj današnjih homoseksualaca su ili mentalno bolesni ljudi ili im je "homoseksualnost" izlika za promiskuitet i kojekakve "coping mechanisms" za mentalne bolesti/traume. Naravno da postoje normalni ljudi koje jednostavno samo privlači isti spol, i dok ti ta osoba ne kaže da je gay ne bi ni znao. Čudno je da 1% populacije ima takvu reprezentaciju u svim serijama/filmovima, kao gle haha on je gej al je TAKO KUL I FEBJULUS ajmo zaboravit na činjenicu da su to de facto moralne i zdravstvene ruine, i nastaviti gledat will n grace haha kak je smijesan ovaj gej covjek wow bas je kao mi normalni ljudi...ti si protiv gej brakova?? Koj kurac katolibanski bigot brak je tak i tak samo ugovor, pa šta onda ako gejevi mogu posvajati djecu NEMA RAZLIKE IZMEDU STRAIGHT I GAY RODITELJA HALOO??

Koja je šansa da upravo čitam The Drunkard's Walk?

Isto tako molio bih izračun koja je šansa da sam upravo jutros pročitao poglavlje koje završava ovako:

> So in this case the chances that a positive test meant I was infected...

A sljedeće počinje ovako:

> Baye's theory shows that a probability...

They have Croatian on Memrise.

You can also get these books: 1, 2

You need both because the red one doesn't do grammar, which is the hardest part.

Maybe there's a Croatian Catholic church if you live in a big city. Or a Serbian Orthodox one. (The languages are different, but a lot is the same, except that Serbian uses Cyrillic too.) They probably have classes.

Really it's not that hard! goes back to studying noun declensions of the genitive case

Takve stvari se desavaju kroz zivot, jebi ga ja sam isto izgubio hrpu frendova poslje srednje, faxa, interesi ljudi se mijenjaju kroz vrijeme, ali isto tako sam upoznao hrpu novih i boljih frendova. A za zene se ne opterecuj ima ih koliko hoces, nije ni prva ni zadnja, nemres racunati ozbiljnost od zena bar do 28 godine, tada vecina njih se zeli skrasiti.


Pricas iz perspektive kao sta ces ti sada kada nemas nikoga i da si izgubljen, zasto definiras svoje postojanje kroz to jesi li prihvacen od ljudi koji ti long run mozda ne odgovaraju ?

Zene ti isto nevole likove koji se ovako ponasaju, sta cu ja bez nje mi govori da je ona vodila kolo, ti nisi imao bas nekog izbora i dosadio si joj, zeli druge stvari, mlada je, zeli se zajebavat i zivit.

Pocni raditi na sebi da budes bolja verzija sebe, svatko moze sjest plakat i pusit travu, gubit vrijeme.

Lista kupaca koji ti proizvod mogu isporučiti se nalazi ovdje. Ukoliko naručuješ iz država članica EU, bit će ti naplaćena isključivo poštarina - carine nema, a svrha naručivanja s amazon.co.uk/.de (i slično) je izbjegavanje upravo te pojave. Iznos poštarine bit će ti prikazan prije nego li potvrdiš narudžbu.

Ovo je vjerojatno najbolji savjet koji ces moci naci, jos si mlad stignes sve promjeniti nabolje - sretno

1. Učlani se u neki društveni hobi. Npr. ples, yoga, sport, tečaj kuhanja, anime klub, tečaj jezika itd. Tako ćeš riješiti ljudski kontakt.
   
   
2. Kad si već student, iskoristi tu priliku i odi kod sveučilišnog psihologa. Meni je žao što nisam.
   
   Meni je osobno užasno pomoglo čitanje. Konkretno Mark Manson, a konkretnije njegova knjiga The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck inspirirana ovim blog postom. Ne postoji bolja self-help knjiga. Razumno, to the point, bez sranja i konkretno.
   
   Nikad nisam bio u prilici kad nisam imao najbolje frendove i čak mi je frend nedavno rekao da smo ga ja i frend "spasili" jer zbog nas ima društvene krugove. Inače bi završio bez prijatelja i ljudskog kontakta. Tako da ja nemam to iskustvo, ali razumijem preko frenda koliko je ozbiljno.

Investiranje samo po sebi označuje odnos između prinosa i rizika. Dionice su povijesno gledano najbolja štedno-ulagačka klasa. Posljednjih 100+ godina, s "eksplozijom" kapitalizma, bogatstvo svijeta se višestruko nagomlilao, što se očituje i kroz dionice (imovina koja stvara prinos). Pogledaj samo ovo. Dakle 129 puta veći return u dionicama nego u obveznicama.

U tom kontekstu, dionički fondovi su rizičniji i volatilniji od ova tri no s njima možeš očekivati najveći prinos, mješoviti je balansiran, a obveznički "najsigurniji" iako s njim možeš očekivati najmanji prinos. I Warren Buffett "običnim" (retail) investitorima sugerira pasivno investiranje u indexne fondove koji prate npr. S&P500 pa baci oko na to. U svakom slučaju prije svega, pročitaj neke od poznatijih knjiga (Intelligent Investora izbjegavaj kao prvu knjigu); pokušaj s npr. 1 2 3. Nakon njih baci oko na Intelligent Investora i dobro čitaj komentare Jasona Zweiga unutar same knjige.

Sori na kasnom odgovoru. Za fotografiju je najbolje potražiiti sadržaj o kompoziciji i boji. Iskreno, radije bi ti preporučio knjige od Burne Hogartha, pogotovo Dynamic Light and Shade. Knjige iz likovnih umjetnosti će ti daleko više pomoći oko fotografije nego knjige o fotografiji.

Što se tiče režije, scenaristike i montaže - najbolje je to skupno gledati kao jedno širinu, ali i cjelinu. Da bi se bavio režijom moraš poznavati scenaristiku i scenarističke tehnike, a da bi se bavio montažom moraš razumjeti režiju koja podrazumijeva razumijevanje scenaristike - i tako u krug. Fora kod filma/TV-a je da svi "zanati" postoje negdje drugdje osim montaže. Gluma postoji izvan Filma i TV-a, fotografija također, scenaristika također... jedino je montaža jedinstven zanat svojstven filmu i tv-u. Gledaj na montažu kao na ključni dio u procesu proizvodnje za koji izrađuješ sav materijal. Stoga podijeli učenje na pet cjelina: Fotografija, Montaža, Storytelling, Režija, Gluma.

Fotografija

• Burne Hogarth - Dynamic Light and Shade http://www.amazon.com/Dynamic-Light-Shade-Burne-Hogarth/dp/0823015815 i ostale knjige od Burne Hogartha nisu za baciti. Općenito sve knjige koje objašnjavaju, likovno i grafički, kompoziciju i odnos svijetla i sjene, poze (contrapposto i sl.). Nema veze ako ne misliš crtati / slikati - principi su isti, ali koristiš kameru, a ne olovku.

  Ima tu još dosta sadržaja kojeg bi bilo dobro spomenuti (recimo Sanford Meisnerova nadogradnja Stanislavskove škole glume i sl. ), ali ovo je već više nego dovoljno za dobar, široki, uvod u temu. Sve navedene knjige (osim za fotografiju) se koriste kao štivo na Columbiji i na Chapmanu i ostalim top filmskim školama. Razlika između čitanja štiva i učestvovanja na nastavi je što imaju i radionice - koje su iznimno bitne kod glume zbog glumačkih vježbi i redateljskih uputa. Kod nas nažalost ne postoji neka radionica i/ili glumačka škola koja radi po punom i ispravnom sustavu Stanislavskog, a kamoli po Meisneru, tako da ćeš i za to morati van.
