Thinking Visualisation

[GOD]

Finally put together a basic introduction to Thinking Visualisation which promulgates the notion that Vision is the most important of our senses and is most connected to various processing centres in the brain. This is turn advocates that thinking in visualisation of the scenario's and issues is a far more powerful thought process than other forms of thought.

Essentially because Visualisation uses the three dimensional perspective of the mind it enables the juggling of more permutations and conceptualisation of connected analogies (images).

Lastly, Visualisation uses the oldest parts of the brain which have been honed over many many millennia.

Hey, I've been wondering about some things for a while now...why do we have the mindset that we have. I am also thinking our personalities? are they that closely related to our individual mindset?

Why do very small percentages of the population do stuff that the masses do not?

What stands out the mindset of another and the possibility of one remaining relatively ...? "stagnant?" while another is under constant change, remodelling, enquiring, nuturing....adapting....where does this come from?

Thought you might have an idea?

I've always believed that groups of peoples minds are like different species, they are quite different and are genetically based. People’s physical differences are just as pronounced in the brain as they are observable as different heights, hair colour and whatever else you can physically differentiate on.

Obviously though, all traits have some randomness and it’s the various probabilistic alignments of certain "abilities" and "needs", "desires" etc that Creates a bell shaped curve of variation.

In theory you could probably construct the basic "prime factors" of the deconstructed "small percentage" that truly excel in the world.

So what are those prime factor traits?... Hmm... I'm thinking I need to write another mini article... !!

Yes, I do agree that it can be a mindset that influences someones long run achievement, just like endless studying can often ensure attainment.

However, some people are just gifted or genetically enabled (Other probability end of being intellectually disabled) (Like I believe there's only a small difference between those that suffer issues like Autism and those that are seen as "incredibly" intelligent (Even just reading about Autistic children's grey and white matter growing abnormally fast just shows that they might have suffered from the genetic "envelope" being pushed too far).

Motivational psychology is a good thing, it will always enhance someones innate ability...

Carol Dweck would probably be interested in my childhood mindset, I used to race the other most intelligent person in the class at maths (My idea) and then we used to go round the class helping all the other kids... lol, I remember once teaching the class coordinate geometry because we had a dumb relieving teacher who didn't understand it. I adored numbers, it was a logical process language, whereas writing/english was a expressive "feeling" language. (Which now I know why boys and girls relate to maths and english differently).

I remember my first deductive intellectual leap, it was when I realised that I could easily and rapidly do my 9x tables if I just used the easy 10x tables and deduct one unit. like 9x7 is the same as 7x10-7 ) (or simply 70-7).

Okay, then does this apply to you...sounds like you had a good grasp on formulating thought as a child..

*There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made and which in its original state, permeates, penetrates and fills the interspaces of the universe. A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.

You can form things in your thought and by impressing your thought upon formless substance, can cause the thing you think about to be created.

In order to do this you must pass from the competitive to the creative mind. Otherwise you cannot be in harmony with the formless intelligence which is always creative and never competitive in spirit.*

(Wallace D Wattles).

Would you be "creative thought" ? Certainly it is not competitive, you don't have competition in many regards, if we are being quite honest here. It's creative?

Was not Einstein creative?

As much as Van Gogh?

I'm curious to understand this.

I'm ultra competitive. That’s why I'm 8w7. But competitiveness morphs with some people, and I am one of those.

Competitiveness can exist against yourself and/or others that is observable, or it can be internalised on both counts.

A thinking competitor may wish to compete against them self in their own mind. (The standard can be higher and great for introverts).

As I've said, ultimate competitiveness is often shown in solo type sports. Team sports are watered down versions. If you are very competitive and say excel at sports then you probably want to excel in the classroom.

But competitiveness itself is not a prime factor in people’s abilities, it’s a manifestation.

Wallace D Littles reasoning is somewhat alien. Here's my angle on applied creativity, if you get this, then you understand my way of thinking....

"Highly competitive types will eventually resort to creative measures to provide unique answers to perplexing questions; that linear thinking cannot solve".

Einstein probably could have been very creative (In the sense that "creativity" is often referred to) however, I think his true ability was to see patterns (or part patterns) and then see patterns in other parts of the environment that had relative correlation. Essentially his pattern forming mind has seen similar jigsaw pieces that fit the picture. (However, I do think creative problem solving is a whole box of logical filters, employed in waves to isolate out the differentiating factors, and then looking for other similar scenarios with these being constantly referenced against the problem until its unlocked (Or best fit solution proposed)). (Remembering that I believe conscious thought programs the subconscious auto routines, that also work on the problem).

Was not Einstein creative?

Van Gogh was traditionally creative where as Einstein was thinking way outside the box, in fact it was outside this planet.

Extremely intelligent people will eventually head towards creativity as simple linear thinking will eventually bore them.

These are quite big statements.

"Users prefer visual over textual cues because humans interpret images faster with less effort than text."
"Users can also locate previously visited sites faster using visual memory".

It points to a whole thought and analysis process which diverges from most academic learning techniques, academic institutions could well learn from the online advertising world which seeks identification, recollection and stimulus to target buyers (or learners as the case could be).
