Barbara Oakley
“Procrastination expert Rita Emmett explains: “The dread of doing a task uses up more time and energy than doing the task itself.”
Barbara Oakley, A Mind for Numbers: How to Excel at Math and Science

Matthew Walker
“if you don’t sleep the very first night after learning, you lose the chance to consolidate those memories, even if you get lots of “catch-up” sleep thereafter. In terms of memory, then, sleep is not like the bank. You cannot accumulate a debt and hope to pay it off at a later point in time. Sleep for memory consolidation is an all-or-nothing event.”
Matthew Walker, Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams

John Bowlby
“What cannot be communicated to the [m]other cannot be communicated to the self.”
John Bowlby

David D. Burns
“When two people respect each other, the ability to be vulnerable and to reveal hurt feelings can create a powerful emotional connection that is the source of real intimacy and friendship.”
David D. Burns

Daniel J. Siegel
“Too often we forget that discipline really means to teach, not to punish. A disciple is a student, not a recipient of behavioural consequences.”
Daniel J. Siegel, The Whole-Brain Child: Revolutionary Strategies to Nurture Your Child's Developing Mind
