The phrase "everything in moderation" is a timeless piece of advice that suggests:
🧭 Avoid extremes — Whether it's food, work, leisure, spending, or even virtues like ambition or caution, the idea is to steer clear of excess or deficiency.
⚖️ Seek balance — It promotes a lifestyle where choices are measured and thoughtful, rather than impulsive or obsessive.
💬 Practical example: Enjoy dessert, but not the whole cake. Work hard, but don’t burn out. Speak your mind, but don’t dominate every conversation.
This principle traces back to ancient wisdom—Greek poet Hesiod said, “Moderation is best in all things.” It’s echoed in many cultures and philosophies as a guide to sustainable, healthy living.
know thy self
Here’s how it’s been interpreted across time:
🔍 Classical Greek Meaning
- Socrates saw it as the foundation of wisdom: true knowledge begins with recognizing what you do not know.
- It urged people to understand their place in the cosmos, their mortality, and their limitations.
🧭 Moral and Psychological Insight
- In Platonic dialogues, it evolved into a call to examine the soul—to pursue moral maturity through self-awareness.
- Socrates believed self-knowledge was not a destination but a lifelong journey, requiring reflection and dialogue with others.
🌍 Broader Cultural Echoes
- In Christian thought, it became a call to recognize both divine origin and human fallibility.
- In psychoanalysis, it was reinterpreted as understanding the unconscious mind—a mirror into hidden motivations.
An Introduction to the General Data Protection Regulation
Numerous governmental regulations exist to ensure consistency and transparency in how data is protected while also identifying consequences for when it is not. This module provides an overview of the General Data Protection Regulation, also known as the ‘GDPR’, and what it means to your organisation and your employees’ job function. Interactive content and ungraded knowledge checks assist in the application of this information to real-life scenarios. Note: This language-specific version of the module provides additional content exploring how the GDPR still impacts your organisation in a post-Brexit world by reviewing some of the similarities and differences between the GDPR and the UK-specific legislation, the Data Protection Act of 2018.
A data subject is defined in the GDPR as an ‘identified or identifiable natural person’.
An identifiable natural person is defined in the GDPR as ‘one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person’.
Personal data are defined in the GDPR as ‘any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (i.e., the data subject), including name, identification number, address, physical description, economic or cultural identity, and many other factors’. A good rule of thumb is, if a piece of information can be tied to a specific person, it is likely covered under the GDPR as personal data.
Data protection means safeguarding an individual’s fundamental right to privacy. This is done by ‘providing the individual with rights over their data and setting up systems of accountability and clear obligations for those who control or undertake the processing of the data’.
Data privacy means empowering your users to make their own decisions about who can process their data and for what purpose.
