the other thought

The quote on which I am basing this Post is from Michael J. Gelb.

I have no idea where I got this - only that I found it tonight as I was sorting
through my really important papers and stuff in my Study.  : ]

But I have been thinking about the quote and what it means for some time -
and I googled Michael J. Gelb just now and there really isn't much about him
on Wikipedia except:


~he was born in 1952


~he is a writer and a trainer in Personal Development


~he has a BA in Psychology and Philosophy from Clark University


~he has an MA in Mind and Body Education from Goddard College


~three things he has written are:


How To Think Like Leonardo da Vinci

Discover Your Genius

More Balls Than Hands


Now being a Person with an Inquiring Mind  - right off I googled the
third one - : ] - and come to find out it is about juggling.  : ]
~~~

Here is the quote - from Michael J. Gelb:


Brain researchers estimate that your unconscious database outweighs the
conscious on an order exceeding ten million to one.  This database is the
source of your hidden, natural genius.  In other words a part of you is much
smarter than you are.  The wise people regularly consult that smarter part.


Now there's a whole sh*tload of Wisdom in that quote.

In reading it - a person should give it some thought - maybe a whole lot
of thought - and see what it means to them.

I know what it means to me - and I'll be glad to share that - but I would like
to do so only if someone wants to know.






or we can just let it be

Are you familiar with differential phase shift keying? A database of every differential signals detected is huge. I'm glad it's unconscious most of the time.

...and it literally IS "the other thought".

Abso - I'm going to google 'differential phase shift keying' later. I'll get back to you on that.

But you say a word like 'database'
and my mind automatically checks out.


But Abso - just now I saw your profile again - and you have The Way We Were on the moive list.

No.

I don't go for stuff like that.

I'm more of a The Way We Are person.

That's how I'm going to rewrite that movie.

They Get Together in my movie.






It's all about the Timing.

And Patience.

Sacrilege. Howcan you be a liberal and NOT worship everything that Stressand has done?

sue hanes said...

Abso - Let me say something right now about B. Stressand.

Not a huge fan.


but she has made a sh*tload of money and ya can't say that she
isn't successful - and she can sing pretty well.

So what's the big gripe here.
