Diving into the water without an oxygen tank is called ‘free-diving.’ It is a form of apnea diving in which divers must hold their breath for an extended period while diving deep into the water with just one breath of oxygen. The difficulty in holding the diver’s breath during this time is not due to a lack of oxygen but rather an increase in carbon dioxide concentration. In other words, if you keep your heart rate low and your metabolism slow, you produce less carbon dioxide, which allows you to dive for a longer duration. The only way to maintain a low heart rate is to remain as calm as possible. Maintaining calmness has numerous benefits in life. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
As a classical composer, Beethoven was the first to assign the work number 'Op.' to his works. Music scholars numbered the works of other famous classical composers after they had passed away. Beethoven believed that his work would be passed on to future generations, and he made it his responsibility to do so. Therefore, uncharacterized works were not given an 'Op.', leaving him with fewer works than other composers. This attitude influenced other composers and made them responsible for their creations. Since then, of course, the number of works by composers has decreased. The responsibility of one person can affect a generation and beyond. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
