Balancing Genius

2007-03-07T06:14:00.000-08:00

You know what life is like. It is a continual stream- a cinema outside and a cinema inside. How many people have pulled themselves out of the cinema? When you do, that is awakening the secret creator within!Part of this effort is becoming aware of the pendulum, when you swing from yes or no, and consider in terms of only black or white. Instead we must learn to finally say Yes AND No. True genius

Mind Mapping

2007-02-14T06:10:00.000-08:00

Mind mapping was formalized as a technique in the early 70's by Tony Buzan, a British bran researcher, as a whole brain alternative to linear thinking.

Technology Advances

If you'd bought a computer in 1950 it would have taken up the entire living room in your house. That's one reason people didn't buy them. The other was cost, even a basic computer would have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Governments and some companies could afford them but you'd be hard pressed to find one in a family home.Of course, now they are everywhere, on your desk, in your kitchen

Setting Unreasonable Goals

2007-01-30T04:36:00.000-08:00

Guest Post By Robert Middleton:I heard a guy on NPR last night (This American Life) talking about devoting his life to developing a time machine. I thought to myself, "What an idiot, doesn't everyone know that time travel is impossible?" But as the story progressed, it turns out he actually developed a device that does in fact alter time. Look, I don't know how. This quantum mechanics stuff is a

Filling The Gaps In Ourselves

2007-01-20T05:20:00.000-08:00

There's work to be done! In us, there are gaps to be found. These are areas where missing parts can be discovered. It is always a shock when they are brought to consciousness. None of us are finished creatures, but rather, works in progress---or better stated: work that must progress or the sleep which overwhelms us.The Yes Or No GapWhere we can see issues only in terms of black and white.

Working Hard Enough

2007-01-04T04:46:00.000-08:00

The saying goes: You can never get enough of what you don't really need. I guess it comes from the old personal growth crowd as an axiom refering to things like 'others approval'. Lots of times it's used to spur productivity, too.Many people are trying to work hard enough, because working hard is not what they need. They need to simply be doing, in a careful and concerned way, without care and

Education Models

2006-12-20T04:49:00.000-08:00

There are two underlying models in all national educational systems. the economic and the intellectual. Many think there is a direct relationship between the two. In western systems the underlying economic model is industrialism; and the intellectual model that is supported is academicism. Too bad all of this is now outmoded.The government sponsored public education system (relatively new to the

Diagram Your Thinking

2006-12-09T06:59:00.000-08:00

The notebooks of Einstein, Martha Graham, da Vinci, Edison, and Darwin suggest that one of primary reasons they achieved greatness was their ability to represent their subjects visually by diagramming and mapping. In Darwin's notebooks there is frequently occuring diagramatic representation of nature as an irregularly branching tree. His tree diagrams helped him capture his thoughts about

Your Automatic Creative Mechanism

2006-11-24T08:54:00.000-08:00

Your automatic creative mechanism is teleological. That is, it operates in terms of goals and end results. Once you give it a definite goal to achieve, you can depend upon its automatic quidance system to take you to that goal better than you could ever by conscious thought. You supply the goal by thinking in terms of end results. Your automatic mechanism then supplies the means whereby.- Maxwell

Change Direction Young One!

2006-11-20T07:17:00.000-08:00

About the age of 14 , children are eased away from ome subjects in shcool and toward others on the ground of utility. Whee has this idea of utility come from, and why does the school curriculum usually fall into two groups of subjects: the useful and the useless? Languages, maths, science and technology are useful; history, geography, art, music and drama are not. This is a common pattern.This is

More Balancing

2006-11-03T08:54:00.000-08:00

Techniques for balance:- Learn to rest. Whether a nap, or simply reflective time, or staring at the horizon, recharging batteries is important. I've never seen anyone who was a better decision maker, performer, or comforter when fatigued.- Get a second opinion. The world is so complex, technology so fungible, medicine so controversial, that it's often safer to hear from several experts on any one

Making Your Thoughts Visible

2006-10-28T07:23:00.000-07:00

The explosion of creativity in the Renaissance was intimately tied to the recording and conveying of a vast body of knowledge in a parallel language: a language of drawings, diagrams, and graphs- as, for instance, in the renowned diagrams and sketches of Galileo.Leonardo da Vinci also used drawings, diagrams and graphs as a way to capture information, away to formulate problems, and the means of

Visualization

2006-10-24T05:34:00.000-07:00

I am continually amazed at how often I forget about our astonishing ability to create what we want by what we envision. Outcome thinking and the willingness to visualize something's being true before it's physically present is a master skill that we all could probably develop to a much greater degree.One comes to be of just such stuff as that on which the mind is set -The UpanishadsNothing

False Personality & Performance

2006-10-20T20:56:00.000-07:00

Are you working for an audience? Is your perfomance predicated on an outer acceptance? Or are you performing from a sense of self that requires none of that sort of thing?The part of us that strengthens the False Personality in us, the ego driven and surface self, needs loosening, a practice that destroys it, undresses one garment at a time. The outer ego can't stand this sort of nakedness, and

A Creative Culture

2006-10-16T15:32:00.000-07:00

Creativity is related to culture. Cultural conditions can put fire under, or kill creativity!We don't have creative ideas in a vacuum. Indvidual creativity is stimulated by work, ideas and acheivements of other people. We stand on the shoulders of others to see further. This is true in all fields, in business, science, sport, music, design, fashion---whatever. Human intelligence is creative in a

Emotional Intelligence & Creativity

2006-10-13T07:31:00.000-07:00

There has been a lot of interest in the idea of emotional intelligence. Many people are not in touch with their emotions and feel incapable of expressing their feelings. The results everywhere are palpable and catastrophic. In part, this is the legacy of academia. Conventional education splits intelligence from feeling, and concentrates only on particular aspects of the first.That's why being
