Galileo Galilei /
"I have never met a man so ignorant that I couldn’t learn something from him."
"Galileo di Vincenzo Bonaiuti de' Galilei was an Italian astronomer, physicist and engineer, sometimes described as a polymath. Commonly referred to as Galileo, his name is pronounced. He was born in the city of Pisa, then part of the Duchy of Florence. Galileo has been called the "father" of observational astronomy, modern-era classical physics, the scientific method, and modern science. Galileo studied speed and velocity, gravity and free fall, the principle of relativity, inertia, projectile motion and also worked in applied science and technology, describing the properties of pendulums and "hydrostatic balances". He invented the thermoscope and various military compasses, and used the telescope for scientific observations of celestial objects. His contributions to observational astronomy include telescopic confirmation of the phases of Venus, observation of the four largest satellites of Jupiter, observation of Saturn's rings, and analysis of lunar craters and sunspots."

Be cautious about what you tolerate, as it instructs others how to interact with you. Maintain a positive demeanor while avoiding indulgence in unacceptable behavior.

“School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel (sergeants). I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam.

What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn't worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave.

This was a Catholic school in Munich. I felt that my thirst for knowledge was being strangled by my teachers; grades were their only measurement.

How can a teacher understand youth with such a system? From the age of twelve, I began to suspect authority and distrust teachers.”

— Albert Einstein, in a conversation with William Hermanns (Einstein and the Poet: In Search of the Cosmic Man, 1983)

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.”

Life’s greatest growth lies just beyond our fears. Every challenge, every risk, and every uncomfortable step we take pushes us closer to our true potential. Fear isn’t meant to paralyze us; it’s a signal that we are standing at the edge of transformation.

Each day, no matter how small, conquering a fear—whether it’s speaking up, making a decision, or chasing a dream—brings us closer to freedom. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the choice to act despite it.

So, the real secret of life is simple:
Face your fears. Conquer them daily. And watch yourself become unstoppable.

"Blind obedience to authority is the greatest enemy of the truth."
— Albert Einstein

The physicist’s rebellion: unchallenged allegiance corrupts progress. Truth requires curiosity, not compliance. Those who surrender critical thought surrender reality itself.

After becoming a MOM, I realized that to the world, we’re NOT allowed to:

• Complain - "You chose to have kids.”

• Cry - "Why are you upset? Did you think it would be easy?”

• Feel tired - "Tired from what? You’re home all day!”

• Sleep in - "You’re just being lazy!”

• Take a break - "You’ll get rest once they’re grown.”

• Get pregnant again - "Are you serious? Isn’t that enough?”

• Leave your job - "How are you going to provide for your child?”

• Work - "Who’s going to watch the baby?”

• Use daycare - "Don’t let strangers raise your kid!”

• Be a stay at home mom - "Your husband does everything while you do nothing!”

• Be single - "Nobody wants a mom with baggage.”

• Go out - "Why are you going out and leaving your child?”

And the truth is…
No matter what we do, someone ALWAYS has something to say.

Let’s normalize giving moms grace. I’m a mom. I LOVE my kids. But I’ve felt EVERY one of these things at some point.

Sometimes you need to learn to be silent even when you have a lot to say.
