Thought Tweet #493

by Rick Baker
On Jun 6, 2012

Thought tweet #493 The mind feeds and grows...depending on the calibre of its dominating questions.

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

We see that in children...they approach life as if it is a question free-for-all. They must do that or they learn little. Curiosity is one childlike habit we should not give up.

Thought Tweet #492 Intention: when your mind squeezes the starting-pistol trigger & the neurons in your brain leave the starting blocks.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Whether you like metaphors or not...something's got to get those neurons off the starting blocks and into the race.

Thought Post #490

Thought Tweet #490 Recipe for Complication: mix up a few simple things, set basic courtesy aside, and watch people get heated up.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

When we do simple things right we pave smoother paths. When we are courteous or at least civil with others we pave smoother paths. When we do not do these things we should expect a rough road ahead.

Thought Tweet #489

by Rick Baker
On May 31, 2012

Thought Tweet #489 Physical proximity can spark & ignite inspiration; physical proximity can cause the release of creative excellence.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Many most-excellent things have been created when people were inspired by others. Observing how, in reaction to others, some people achieve extremes in creative excellence provides insight into this phenomenon. The story of Beethoven's creation of 'Moonlight Sonata', whether the story is embellished or not, provides an explanation of the thinking behind this tweet. [For the Beethoven story see page 169 of Orison Swett Marden's 1911 classic 'Pushing To The Front'.]

Thought Tweet #488

by Rick Baker
On May 30, 2012

Thought Tweet #488 As technology advances at an ever-increasing pace we are at a similarly-increasing pace becoming isolated individuals.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Thinking about 'Future Shock' while reading 'ZEN and the art of making a living'...people can be immensely connected while, at the same, time most isolated. It is difficult to match the power of physical proximity.
