Respect your Thoughts

"Let me think about it".
This is an all too common statement that many of us make without much 'thought'. We have been taught at home, in schools, at work places and everywhere else, to think about things because thought is intelligent and certainly helps you to figure the best ways to deal with issues - WRONG! The human being was not made (created) to think!

Now, before you start asking questions or making demanding observations, the learned scientists around us have confirmed that the human brain does not have any thinking capacity. The brain contains no part that is used for "thinking". Yeah!, I also ranted and raved when I came across this the first time but I did an experiment - next time you get that beautiful idea, the light bulb sort of thing, try sitting down with pen and paper and try to build on the new idea. Chances are, if it is a totally new thing like the COKE formula, you will end up with a blank. If you manage to pen down anything, it will most likely be bits and pieces of data that is already stored in our brain.

The brain is like a computer. You take in data and store it in there, and also have a system of retrieving that data - remembering it is called. This is not thinking, if it was, then computers can think. This is the process that is used in education to the highest level possible. Personally, I respect education a great deal and so this is not to suggest anything untoward to all of us educated people, but have you ever wondered why some do not make it in the scholarly area? Could it be that they are not endowed in the art of storage and retrieval of data? Have you ever wondered why inventions and other great ideas are rear in 'fountains of learning'?

Thought comes from beyond the mind.
All thought comes from the fountain of life, further deeper than where the human mind can be found. Thought comes to us as intuitions. Thoughts have their own dynamic lives and when we create things, be they a successful business or an imposing structure, we are only speaking life into the thoughts. When we fail to speak life into the thoughts, someone else does so that we can get the chance and opportunity to say "that was my idea"!
So instead of thinking about it, maybe we should try sleeping over it.
