[Quote No.56688] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"Try to decide if fearful or worried about some uncertain thing if it is so likely to happen or the negative consequences so bad that it is best to set up a time in your daily plans to tackle it or whether it is possible to risk it not happening or happening and not being a big problem so you can just 'forget it until I need to cross that bridge' and use your energy on higher priority things including enjoying yourself." - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.58198] Need Area: Fun > Anticipation
"[The power of imagination, focus and self-discipline for directing your life and controlling your emotions, for good and bad:-] ...
First thing back in Milwaukee, I reported to my parole officer, a Mr Rand, I think. After asking a thousand questions and filling out a mountain of papers he gave me an I.Q. Test. When he computed my score his sea-blue eyes saucered in surprise.
He couldn't understand how a boy with a score of one hundred and seventy-five could do a stupid thing like peddling a girl's ass on the sidewalk. [Genius IQ is generally considered to begin around 140 to 145, representing 0.25% of the population (1 in 400). Here's a rough guide: 115-124 - Above average (e.g., university students), 125-134 - Gifted (e.g., post-graduate students), 135-144 - Highly gifted (e.g., intellectuals), 145-154 - Genius (e.g., professors), 155-164 - Genius (e.g., Nobel Prize winners), 165-179 - High genius, 180-200 - Highest genius, >200 - 'Unmeasurable genius', Albert Einstein was considered to 'only' have an IQ of about 160. Refer http://www.wilderdom.com/intelligence/IQWhatScoresMean.html ] ...
I was eighteen now, six feet two inches tall, slender, sweet. And stupid. ...
[Later] I got two years [twenty-four months] in State Prison for Grand Theft, the amount, five-hundred dollars. My parole was to run concurrently with the new sentence. ...
The Waupun State Prison was tough, but in a different way than the reformatory. Here the cons were older. Many of them were murderer's serving life sentences. ...
I worked in the laundry. I kept my clothing fresh and neat. It was in the laundry that I met the first man from whom I got cunning to balance my hardness.
He was an old Drag man with his bit [sentence] getting short [nearing completion]. He was the first to attempt to teach me to control my emotions.
He would say, 'Always remember whether you be sucker or hustler in the world out there, you've got that vital edge if you can iron-clad your feelings. I picture the human mind as a movie screen. If you're a dopey sucker, you'll just sit and watch all kinds of mind-wrecking, damn fool movies on that screen.'
He said. 'Son, there is no reason except a stupid one for anybody to project on that screen anything that will worry him or dull that vital edge. After all, we are the absolute bosses of that whole theatre and show in our minds. We even write the script. So always write positive, dynamic scripts and show only the best movies for you on that screen whether you are pimp or priest.'
His rundown of his screen theory saved my sanity many years later. He was a twisted wise man and one day wasn't looking, a movie flashed on the screen. The title was 'Death For An Old Con.'
He died in his sleep behind the high gray walls. His fate was that that lives like a spectre with all cons. The fear of dying in a cell.
I sure missed that convict philosopher. The wisdom he taught me took me successfully through my bit [sentence]. I was released after twenty-one months. I got three months good time for good conduct!" - Robert 'Iceberg Slim' Beck
(1918 - 1992), Robert Beck, better known as Iceberg Slim, was an American pimp who subsequently became an influential author among a primarily African-American readership. Quote from his autobiography, ‘Pimp: The Story of My Life’, published 1967, pg. 38, 52-53.
