META LEVEL STRATEGY FOR CREATIVE THINKING MOVEMENT

It is well know that for igniting fission and starting the nuclear chain reaction critical mass is required.The same way for a quick total transformation of human thinking of all. It is not just enough to spread awareness about creative thinking,or train some people through mufti- level marketing approach. It is not enough that business community reap benefits from it. While a number of NGOs have come forward and are actively engaged in social innovations,applying new innovative ideas to health…See More

"Have I understood this correctly? I have a goal that I want to reach. Thus, I need a leader so that I can reach my goal and the leader needs to tell me the path and inspire me. Hmm. . . I would call this circular thinking."

LEADERS ARE NOT NEEDED

Posted on May 30, 2012 at 5:14 26 Comments

Leaders are needed to show people thepah that leads them to where they want to reach. A small child would need to hold hand of his mother when to show him the way to his school-first few times. One seeks passerby's help to find the way to a desired place in unknown town. But if one has access to google earth through his mobile he need not ask anyone. Likewise, business leaders,social leaders or that matter political leaders are required to lead us to the unknown future. Hoever,if we have…

X-RAYING BUREAUCRATIC THINKING

Posted on December 26, 2011 at 5:32 1 Comment

It is a common experience that bureaucrats in the Government world over share some common thinking behaviour,namely,look for precedence,follow the rules and play safe. My experience hind sight reveals that the so called "successful" bureaucrats have an additional ability,namely a good understanding of psychology of rational thinking; that most people do not like to go into complexity and look for simple solutions. So they follow the "Either Or " logic. and not generate more alternatives.…

MYTHSABOUT THINKING

Posted on April 30, 2011 at 6:58 0 Comments

Among many myths about thinking one is that thinking is natural and healthy.Therefore we should think all the time.

Nothing can we far from truth as this statement. Thinking in language is learnt.Thinking all the time,like eating,walking or sleeping all the time would be harmfull rather than do any good. Just as there are physical fitness enthusiasts who over do exercises,there are people in order to keep their minds active and creative keep the mind busy for long hours. Not just the brain… Continue

Since you said that you'd like more friends, you could probably comment on your own "mistaken" blank blog post to those people who also commented there. I'm sure that they're waiting for whatever you have to say about it... Since you have already so many people who have responded to your "mistaken" blog post, you could talk to them and ask them to be friends... Posting your comment you said to me on your blog, "An abstract painting that was much admired by art critics actually turned out to be a spill over of colors by a dog who walked over the canvas ! " This would be a wonderful response to read from you!!

For greater "intentional" effect, you can actually make that "mistaken" post completely blank - if you like. I think it would be very amusing if you did that. Go to that post and on the right hand side there is an "edit" function (probably a blue colored link that says "edit post'.)

I love taking full advantage of things that happen "accidentally on purpose."

The way that I get so many friends is that when people join, I say hello to them and tell them something useful or ask them a question. They write back to me, and then I ask them if they want to be friends. (There's a little link at the bottom of each private message for that purpose.) Then I continue the conversation, posting on their blogs, etc.
