How to Boost Focus Permanently. 
Wilhelm Reich
"We have no right to tell our children how to build their future, since we have proved unfit to build our own. We cannot hope to build independent human characters if education is in hands of politicians."
"Wilhelm Reich was an Austrian doctor of medicine and a psychoanalyst, a member of the second generation of analysts after Sigmund Freud.
The author of several influential books, The Impulsive Character, The Function of the Orgasm, Character Analysis, and The Mass Psychology of Fascism, he became one of the most radical figures in the history of psychiatry.
Reich's work on character contributed to the development of Anna Freud's The Ego and the Mechanisms of Defence, and his idea of muscular armour—the expression of the personality in the way the body moves—shaped innovations such as body psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy, bioenergetic analysis and primal therapy.
His writing influenced generations of intellectuals; he coined the phrase "the sexual revolution" and according to one historian acted as its midwife. During the 1968 student uprisings in Paris and Berlin, students scrawled his name on walls and threw copies of The Mass Psychology of Fascism at police."

On this day in 1984, the Foreigner single “I Want To Know What Love Is” debuted on the US Billboard Hot 100 at #45 ( December 8 )
The power ballad was written by Foreigner guitarist (and only current remaining original band member) Mick Jones, and was the lead single from their fifth album, “Agent Provocateur”.
Recalling the inspiration behind the song, Jones said,
“I always worked late at night, when everybody left and the phone stopped ringing. "I Want to Know What Love Is" came up at three in the morning sometime in 1984.
I don’t know where it came from. I consider it a gift that was sent through me.
I think there was something bigger than me behind it. I’d say it was probably written entirely by a higher force.”
Although it’s credited to Mick Jones, an uncredited portion (somewhere between 5% according to Jones and 35% according to Gramm) was contributed by singer Lou Gramm, who recollected, “[Jones'] home was about 15 minutes from my home, so I would drive over to his house and we would work on that song. There'd be moments where it was just magic…”.
Gramm was not impressed with Jones claiming all the rights to the song.
When he heard that Jones thought he only contributed to 5% of the song, he was shocked:
“I said, 'Five, Mick?' I said, 'You should just keep it all.' And he did.
He didn't say, 'No, Lou. Please. Let's work it out.' I said, 'Five percent for me after all the work I did on the song?'
I said, 'You should just keep it all.' And he didn't say anything. He just kept it all.”
"I Want to Know What Love Is" reached #1 on the UK Singles Chart on January 15, 1985, displacing Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?", staying there for three weeks, and knocked Madonna's long-running "Like a Virgin" out of #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on February 2, 1985.
It was Foreigner's first and only pop chart-topper in either country.
It was also a massive hit all around the world…
The song spent five weeks at #1 in Australia, and hit the top of the charts in Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway and Sweden, while peaking at #2 in Switzerland, Portugal and South Africa, #3 in Denmark and Germany, #5 in the Netherlands, #7 in Finland, Austria and Belgium, and #8 in Spain.

Burg Hohenzollern 🏰
Burg Hohenzollern is a castle not far from the city of Tübingen, Germany. It belonged to and was built by the noble Prussian family of the Hohenzollern, who lived here from the early Middle Ages to the First World War.
Originally built in the first part of the 11th century, it was completely destroyed after a ten-month siege in 1423 by the union of some Swabian cities.
A second, larger castle was built from 1454 to 1461 and served as a refuge for the Hohenzollern family in times of war, even during the Thirty Years War.
At the end of the 18th century, however, it began to be thought that the castle had lost its strategic importance and gradually fell into abandonment.
This led to the collapse of several buildings. Today only the chapel remains of the original medieval building.
The third reconstruction of the castle, as we see it today, was carried out between 1846 and 1867 by King Frederick William IV in a neo-Gothic style mainly for celebrating the prestige of the Hohenzollern family.
