Favourite Quote from Albert Einstein:
Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love
How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?
Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour
Sit with that special girl for an hour and it seems like a minute
That's relativity

Don't let your heart rule over your head.

Are you just like me? Unable to get to sleep, or rather feels that you have to think through something before you can sleep in peace? Well whatever the case is, i've got 2 stories to share. Apparently, i was talking to Shawn(tay) about my choices and he just told me these 2stories. I like the "Roger Bannister" the most:) So if you happened to pass by my blog, go ahead and read it. Its quite inspirational. No harm spending a few minutes reading through it, yeah? Credits to Shawn:)

Roger Bannister
For thousands of years people believed that it was impossible for a man to run a mile in less than four minutes. Many made this generalisation and formed this belief because anybody who attempted had failed. Doctors reinforced this belief by showing evidence from their study of the human body that it was physically impossible to achieve this feat. Then, Roger Bannister refused to believe this, thus forming a new belief that it was possible. After lots of mental & physical training, he accomplished this supposedly impossible feat. However, this is the not amazing thing. The most amazing thing is until he accomplished this feat, nobody could it for thousands of years. Yet, within one year of his accomplishment, about 40 runners did it. And the following year, 300 runners did the same thing. Reason? Because his achievement had destroyed people's limiting beliefs that it was impossible.

Placebo Effect
Since long long long time ago, doctors have discovered that when you take a medicine and it cures you, it is not so much the ingredients that cure you. What really cures you is the belief that you will get cured. This is called Placebo Effect. When they give cancer patients sugar water and told them that this was a new powerful drug that would melt their tumours, the tumours literally disappeared and the patients got cured.
