Meditation

We will discuss two very short stories: Ursula Le Guin's ["The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas"](https://files.libcom.org/files/ursula-k-le-guin-the-ones-who-walk-away-from-omelas.pdf) and Franz Kafka's ["Before the Law"](https://www.kafka-online.info/before-the-law.html) which together make up about 7 pages of reading. The first is often interpreted as an exploration of utilitarianism, which we can use to explore ideas of morality together as we examine Le Guin's memorable description of an apparently perfect society with one major flaw. The second is Kafka's short and strange parable about a man who wants access to the law; it is a work which explores ideas of power and authority. We will meet at L'Objet Trouvé near the Veletržní Palác. I look forward to seeing you there!

**MPORTANT! Please register on [Luma page](https://luma.com/qmxm93hj)**​ Are you a strong designer with a solid portfolio, but still feel like your true impact remains invisible? We often believe that simply creating good mockups is enough. But the reality is: design almost never creates results in isolation, and the market pays for business impact, not just execution. ​**🎤 [Vova Safonov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vova-safonov/) — From a Reactive Designer to a Proactive Leader** We will break down the illusion of "I complete tasks = I work well" and discuss why strong designers often lose in the market. You will learn how to: * ​Stop waiting for tasks and start taking responsibility for solutions. * ​Understand business expectations (impact on revenue, conversion, retention). * ​Develop an entrepreneurial mindset inside the company. ​**🎤 [Ivan Rohovchenko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivanrogovchenko/) — 1+1=3: How a Designer Creates Real Impact.** The greatest value is born at the intersection of functions. Ivan will share tools and real cases from his experience building design functions across 10+ companies. You will learn: * ​**The Three Levels of Influence:** How your value creation changes from IC to Design Lead to CDO. * ​**Perspective vs. Power:** Why designers often lose influence by proposing solutions to problems nobody has acknowledged yet. * ​**Practice:** Concrete tools for effective cross-functional collaboration, including stakeholder mapping. ​Huge thanks to **[Nagarro](https://www.nagarro.com/en/?utm_source=luma)** for hosting us, providing the space, and supporting the local design and tech community!

Filozofování o životě a o všem ostatním pro všechny, bez vstupného a bez přihlášky: Co si přejete, s čím si lámete hlavu, co Vás nenechá spát, o čem dumáte, o čem sníte, co Vám vrtá hlavou, čeho se bojíte, na co vzpomínáte, o čem přemýšlíte? Nenechte tyto věci jen pro sebe, zkuste rozhovor s jinými lidmi. U nás nejde jen o to, si popovídat, o to taky, ale to máte i jinde. U našeho stolu se pokusíme, spolu *filozofovat*. Nejdříve se dohodneme, jaké téma budeme diskutovat, a pak se do toho pustíme, budeme přemýšlet, rozmýšlet, promýšlet a zamýšlet se, až se nám z toho bude točit hlava, přitom nám budou podporou filozofové všech věků, abychom jí neztratili, tu hlavu. Ani byste nevěřili, jak filozofie může být osvěžující…

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.
