Book : Don't Believe Everything You Think
Your mind is not a friend it’s a tyrant. It spins stories of inadequacy, catastrophizes the future, and replays past failures like a broken record. This mental noise isn’t just distracting; it’s soul-crushing. Joseph Nguyen’s “Don’t Believe Everything You Think” isn’t another platitude-filled pep talk. It’s a scalpel, cutting through the illusion that your thoughts define reality. In a world drowning in overthinking, anxiety, and self-doubt, this book is a rebellion against the prison of the mind.

This abrupt action halted critical global health and humanitarian initiatives, leaving millions without essential support. Continue reading →

Belgique, la destruction des acquis sociaux n'est pas un projet de société
Le discours sur l’« obésité » de l’État sert trop souvent de paravent à une stratégie cynique de démantèlement des services publics, orchestrée par une classe politique déconnectée du quotidien des citoyens. Derrière l’argument comptable de la dette publique se cache un projet idéologique : affaiblir la protection sociale pour transformer la précarité en une norme, détourner la colère populaire vers un faux ennemi – les allocataires sociaux, les familles nombreuses, les services publics – tout en servant les intérêts privés.
