Why did man come into this world? Who knows the answer to this question? Perhaps he showed up to enjoy his life to the fullest? Let's figure out what gives us true pleasure in this life.
We all come into this world for a reason, but for a purpose. This goal is often unclear and controversial, so many, without hesitation, defined their goal as “Enjoyment of life.” Why not? Who determined that our mission on Earth involves hard labor and self-sacrifice? Perhaps with such a position it is easier to exist in this world, constantly devoting oneself to pleasures and pleasures. I wonder what people all over the world get pleasure from? And what is the greatest pleasure? Based on a survey of more than 10,000 people, a unique rating of human pleasures was compiled:
8. Food
This is probably not entirely correct, because main function food - saturate us, maintaining the vitality of the body. But with evolution, humanity has developed a real cult of food, to which, to be honest, each of us is subject to it. And it doesn’t really matter whether it’s a chicken leg or a lobster.
7. Health
It would seem so vital important factor how good health should be at the top of the pleasure rating, but he is practically in the rearguard. And all because we remember the pleasure from health only when we get sick. Having gotten rid of the pain, having coped with the illness, we short time We are in euphoria, enjoying such a comfortable state. And after a while we forget about it, thinking good condition health for granted, and we stop monitoring it. But those moments of happiness that we experience when we feel recovered deserve a place in this ranking.
6. Enjoyment from achieving a goal
This is a rather strong pleasure that we experience when we set a goal for ourselves. And it doesn’t matter what brings pleasure, be it wealth, when we rejoice at every ruble we earn with our own hands, or every kilogram we lose while on a diet. Moreover, the most interesting thing is that we get more pleasure from the process of achieving a goal than when the goal is achieved.
5. Enjoyment of beauty
This is the true pleasure that we experience when listening to music, watching actors play in theater or cinema, contemplating a painting by a brilliant artist or a sculpture created by someone’s talented hands. Or we admire the beautiful architecture and the ever-changing landscapes of nature. We experience great pleasure admiring the beauty and diversity of the animal world.
4. Sex
The most well-known and guessed pleasure, a physiological need that also brings a lot of pleasure. The only downside is that the pleasure is short-term, although frequent, so sex for many becomes something ordinary, equaling the level of pleasure with food.
3. Wealth
Everyone dreams of being rich, having a lot of money, so as not to constantly think about where to get it. This is a great pleasure that people get not even from wealth as such, but from the opportunity to buy absolutely everything without thinking about the price, to buy themselves many other pleasures, even a little health. But this pleasure is not endless, because satiety always sets in or the money runs out.
2. Passion
Undoubtedly one of the most strong feelings, capable of giving intense pleasure. It inspires a person completely, subjugating him, be it a passion for a game, for drugs or for any person. One has only to say that this such a strong facet of pleasure can also be extremely destructive. Forced abandonment of an object of pleasure can have the most incredible consequences.
1. Love
A feeling that not everyone is given the opportunity to experience is the main, true pleasure of life, which everyone, from the beginning of life to the end, strives to experience at least once. And it doesn’t matter whether it’s love for parents, children or to a loved one. Having acquired this magical feeling, a person receives the highest pleasure as a gift.
The most influential business publication, Expansion Magazine (Mexico), believes that Cinnabon is not just a cinnamon bun. The editors included it in the list of 50 pleasures of life.
Everyone knows that Cinnabon is famous for its delicious cinnamon rolls. Today, I will present to your attention a recipe for these wonderful and dizzyingly fragrant buns!
A little history about the creation of Cinnabon.
The most influential business publication, Expansion Magazine (Mexico), believes that Cinnabon is not just a cinnamon bun. The editors included it in the list of 50 pleasures of life. Why be surprised? In my opinion, this is really true!
Sinabon Cinnamon Rolls Recipe top secret, and the best technologists worked on its creation. It was many years ago in America in Washington state under the auspices of Ritch Komen and his son Greg. The creators confidently claim that they managed to come up with a real culinary masterpiece. The secret of taste is in the patented recipe. First, the dough is made from wheat with a high gluten content. Secondly, Makara cinnamon, grown in Indonesia at an altitude of five thousand meters above sea level. Third, strict production standards. The roll that the master rolls and then cuts into buns should have no more than five turns. Business card company - classic Sinabon with cream cheese and cinnamon. Each Cinnabon product is baked in front of customers and served hot straight from the oven.
Recipe for classic Cinnabon buns:
Gluten:
1. Place one heaping tablespoon of flour in a bowl with two tablespoons of water. Knead a stiff ball of dough.
2. Rinse the resulting dough under running water cold water. You should get a non-uniform “rag” - this is gluten. Add it to the dough before the flour.
Preparing the dough
For the test you will need:
flour - 600-700 g (4-5 cups)
milk - 200 ml (4/5 cup)
eggs - 2 pcs.
sugar - 100 g (1/2 cup)
butter - 70-80 g (5 tbsp.)
yeast - 50 g fresh (or 11 g dry)
salt - 1 tsp.
Dough preparation process
1. In a cup, mix warm milk with a spoonful of sugar and add yeast. It turns out to be dough. We wait 10-15 minutes until it rises.
2. In a large bowl, beat eggs at room temperature with the remaining sugar, then add soft butter and salt, mix.
3. When the dough has risen (increased), pour it into the egg-butter mixture, gluten, mix and add the sifted flour. It may take less or more flour, so you should add it gradually so that the dough does not turn out too stiff.
4. Knead the dough thoroughly. The main thing is that it does not stick to your hands.
5. Then roll the dough into a ball and cover with cling film (towel). We close windows and doors to avoid drafts. Leave in a warm place for one hour. You can take the basin larger size and pour it there warm water, and then place the container with the dough. The dough should approximately double in size. This will take approximately one hour. To make the buns more fluffy, you will have to wait two hours, during which time you should knead the dough 2-3 times.
While the dough is rising, let's make the filling.
Filling ingredients:
butter - 50 g (3.5 tbsp)
brown sugar - 200 g (1 cup)
cinnamon - 20 g (3 tbsp.)
Process of making cinnamon filling
1 Melt the butter on the stove or in the microwave (5-10 seconds).
2 Combine brown sugar and cinnamon and mix with butter.
3 The filling is ready!
Preparing the cream
Ingredients for cream:
cream cheese (for example, Mascarpone, Philadelphia, Almette) - 50-60 g (3-4 tbsp.)
powdered sugar - 100 g
soft butter - 40 g (2-3 tbsp.)
vanillin.
Process of making buttercream
1. Mix cream cheese with soft butter until smooth.
2. Then add to the resulting mass powdered sugar and vanillin.
When the time is up and the dough has risen, remove it from the cup. Sprinkle the table with a little flour and knead the dough on the table. If it sticks to your hands too much, add more small quantity flour. Knead the dough for about 1-2 minutes. As soon as it stops sticking, roll it into a ball, cover with a towel and let rest for another 5 minutes.
Now that the dough is completely prepared for sculpting the cinnabons, take a rolling pin and roll out a thin layer about 5 millimeters thick and measuring 12x16 inches (30x40 centimeters).
Evenly distribute the butter, sugar and cinnamon filling.
Leave three centimeters empty from the edge so that the rolled roll sticks well into the lock.
Roll the dough tightly into a roll so that it does not fall apart. The tighter you get it, the more your buns will resemble the original and won't fall apart during baking. But don’t overdo it, don’t forget that for a proper Sinabon there should be no more than five turns.
Cut the resulting roll into one-inch (2.54 cm) thick pieces. You should have 12 pieces. The knife must be used very sharp so as not to deform the buns, otherwise they may crumble.
Now cover the baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the cakes so that the distance between them is 3-4 centimeters. This is necessary so that they have enough space when they begin to increase in size. If the distance is very large, then the buns will not look like an American masterpiece. Cover the pan with cling film or a towel and wait 15 minutes for them to rise a little more. If you are not in a hurry, then you can wait an hour, all this is done for pomp and airiness. Mine sat for over an hour.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Bake the buns for 18 to 25 minutes, depending on the characteristics of your oven. You can check the readiness of the baked goods using a wooden skewer (match, toothpick). Pierce the product. If the baked goods are ready, the skewer will be clean and the dough should not stick to it. As soon as the filling boils and the buns are browned, wait a couple of minutes and take them out of the oven, the main thing is not to dry them out.
Without removing the buns from the mold, apply the glaze to them using a brush. If you let the buns cool a little, the glaze will not melt or spread much. To make your baked goods look delicious, wait 5 minutes before applying the glaze.
Here is our culinary masterpiece!

Striving for a goal in life in itself is meaningless. It is important what the goal leads to, what values are brought to life. There are goals - dreams that everyone wants, and there is little benefit from achieving them. And even more so, there is no point in putting them on – they don’t motivate.
Look at this list of goals on the MYTH blog:
Similar goals generate defective motivation. You can’t set goals like that. You can get crazy when you reach them, or it’s not at all clear why someone needs them in the present tense.
The list of goals is typical, which is offered to blog readers. The authors, trying to give readers examples of long-term goals, give a set of loops. To strive for such goals without having anything behind them is an inquisition of the remnants of a healthy psyche.
Vital Goals
The goals that we set for ourselves should develop us, bring us experience, increased awareness and personal responsibility. And don’t send him to a mental hospital, intensive care unit or a cemetery.
Vital important goals- these are the ones the desire for which will develop us. Expand our capabilities, increase our sense of happiness, improve our psyche and relationships with others.
The world needs a hundred space explorers. If someone truly aspires to be an astronaut, go ahead! Better happy, wise, responsible person, and at the same time also our messenger from the Earth. What an astronaut is - unhappy, scared, training and tormenting himself, only because he is not ready to love himself and understand his desires.
I am not against struggle and “achievement”, but struggle especially with oneself should not be meaningless. There's no need for a dummy in a spacesuit taking a selfie with the Earth in the background.
The main vital goal of a person is to be healthy physically and psychologically. There are not so many people who are confident, have positive self-esteem, know their worth and are able to realize their desires. They are able to set a goal in life, take on life decisions important problem for all humanity. They have the courage and strength to solve it and live happily.
Human development goals
To realize the goal of life, a person needs only average abilities, but not enough average courage. Strength of mind is needed less than courage to resist the circumstances and prejudices of others.
A person is not effective at achieving a goal that does not lead him to something greater than the goal itself. Therefore, it is so important to practice understanding your desires, needs, values, to know your strengths and be able to work for pleasure.
Set short-term goals for self-exploration, searching for your untapped talents. Learn to overcome preconceptions about yourself and what you already “know.” Develop self-confidence, form an opinion based on personal experience. Develop courage and ability to work. You will need all this when you are ready to solve an important problem or implement a complex project.
Example: list of 50 goals
Coming up with goals can be difficult if there is little practice and awareness. Therefore, it is useful to look through examples of general development goals and adapt the ones you like.
We offer examples that lead to personal development, to the acquisition of experience, and to the expansion of ideas about oneself and the universe. It is advisable to have something else behind these goals, but they will already develop you if you decide to achieve them.

How to write your 50 goals in life - answer
Keep lists of example goals and ideas. Introduce all sorts of different dreams and goals. Break down your goals into categories: short-term (up to 1 month), medium-term (1 year) and long-term (2-5 years). When 50 or more goals have accumulated, re-sort them and add important ones to your list of goals for the year. I keep lists on Evernote and in a notepad.
To determine your goals, we recommend the exercise "50 goals and 50 desires" . First you need to determine the range of your desires and begin to realize them. Then, where you most want to continue working - look for a more global goal. The ideal is to look for a problem, a need of humanity, and satisfy it.
Formulate not just selfish goals in life, but also those aimed at benefiting people. The goal of “Becoming a famous chef” will not bring as much satisfaction as organizing a children's center. The very wording “Become famous” speaks of an unhealthy psyche, of dislike in childhood. If you suddenly want fame, first satisfy your need for love. So save the world after you save yourself. First, cultivate strong egoism, and altruism will appear on its own, there is no need to force it.
The ideal goal of a person’s life is when you give yourself to the universe and get high from it. All you need is the freedom to do what you like. You don't have to get approval, recognition and fame. You don't need to know five languages to earn respect and admiration. You feel good both alone and in a team, doing what you think is right.
Choose your vital goals and go on your way to yourself.
Have you never tried Cinnabon?!, - my friend asked me with horror. - How?! These are the most delicious cinnamon rolls in the world! They are so... mmm... Tasty, warm, once you try them you won’t be able to pull them away by the ears!
I don't like cinnamon. Buns are also not my thing. If you want something sweet, eat some cake. The buns are a bit under-cakey and overbread. It sounds strange, of course, but I just don’t like them. But after that Cinnabon advertisement from a friend, I realized that I must, I must not break away from progress and try.
And then it turned out that they were not sold everywhere at all. Only in some shopping centers, which are one hundred hundred stops away from me. OK. And after hearing another story, that people from other cities come to ours to try Cinnabon, I completely cast aside my doubts.
She directly took her planner, crossed out all the things to do and wrote down at the top of the list: BUY CINNABONS.
As you understand, my innate sense of laziness did not allow me to carry out my plans. First one thing, then another... and then, one fine morning, the Cinnabons themselves came to Mohammed. Well, with the help of a friend, of course.
Cinnabon is a world famous brand of the most delicious cinnamon rolls! Their freshness, aroma and appetizing appearance cause constant delight among people. different ages and countries.
The appearance didn’t exactly please me - it’s still not a birthday cake, but it’s also quite nice. For everyday, so to speak, use.
The little blue box is quite heavy in size. There’s also a cool porthole in the middle. There are no decorations in the form of ribbons or anything else. Just a box of buns.
There were 4 buns in the box. Naturally, they are already cold. But they seem to be fresh.
As a friend explained, the more you buy, the more profitable it turns out. And if you take it out yourself, you get a 45% discount. And for a box with 4 discounted Cinnabons we paid about 400 rubles.
In my opinion, this is very expensive! But I won't judge without trying...
This miracle can be stored for up to three days at room temperature. But they can also be frozen for up to 30 days - the instructions provide detailed instructions on how to do this.
Do taste qualities change during this time? Most likely, yes.
I'm pretty sure the tastiest stage of Cinnabons is right out of the oven. Sizzling hot... Similar to pizza. No matter how much you warm it up, it’s still not the same.
But since the rolls arrived to me cold, we will warm them up.
There are two options - in the microwave or in the oven. Naturally, I chose mkv. It will be faster. The instructions indicate the heating time for the Cinnabons - it takes 30-40 seconds for one bun. Sorry, the power is not indicated.
But the composition of the buns is quite tolerable - there are no E-sheks, dyes... the only thing is that the margarine in the composition could be replaced with butter. But the calorie content is simply hellish - on average, about 1000 calories for one small snail! For comparison: a cake has about 400 calories.
The set, called sinnapak, contained 4 sinnabons with different flavors:
classic, chocolate, nut and pineapple.
So, tasting.
The first cinnabon - classical. Unrealistically sweet! After heating it became much softer than when cold. Smells strongly of cinnamon. Quite juicy - lots of filling and white glaze. Basically, tasty, but not exactly wow... TOO MUCH CINNAMON. Everything smelled like it, the microwave, the room, the hands... Lovers of this spice, of course, can have an orgasm, but somehow I don’t really like it.
Next up is pineapple. Perhaps the most tasteless. The dough is the same as the friend above, but the filling is a spoonful of jam. Dryish. It’s clearly not worth more than a hundred rubles. You chew and think about the meaning of existence - how did people manage to promote ordinary buns like that?
Chocolate is perhaps the best. There is a lot of icing, a chocolate layer, there is no annoying smell of cinnamon, which I don’t really like... In general, I enjoyed it. It’s not like, HHHHHHH, THIS IS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED IN MY DAY, but it’s just delicious. There is also cinnamon here, but somehow less than in the classic one.
And nut (pecanbon) - sprinkled with crushed nuts on top, in general, no longer differs from the classic one. The driest. Well, nuts are nuts, but more filling obviously wouldn’t hurt.
According to the test - yes, soft, smells delicious. Cinnamon generally causes appetite, according to scientists)
I liked the white glaze, apparently sugar and cheese.
For my taste - chocolate - solid four(if it weren’t so sugary and cost half as much, I would get an A). The rest are three.
Okay, not very classic because of the cinnamon. But I don’t understand why the nut and pineapple ones weren’t lubricated with something to prevent them from getting stuck in the throat.
Although, there is a logic: if you buy buns directly fresh, at a retail outlet, you will definitely buy coffee or something else to drink. I immediately remembered a story about a man who at one station sold over-salted fish, and at the next - water at exorbitant prices. This is the case.
If you buy this to take home, then one bun per person is enough. I, a mutant sweet tooth, barely devoured two. But no more. And pour all this with just liters of tea.
According to one of the influential professional publications, Cinnabon buns were included in the list of the 50 main pleasures of life.
Damn dubious pleasure!
I won’t buy this again, because for that amount of money there is a huge, gigantic, colossal number of desserts that are much tastier. After all, it turns out that without a discount this snail bun costs about 200 rubles apiece.
Also, on the Internet there is huge amount recipes for Cinnabons that you can adjust to your taste and bake enough for a horde of children-husbands for the money.
But for the sake of trying it, take it. What if you, like me, have lived to such an age and have never tried Cinnabon, what a horror!))
All the best! Thanks for reading!
