In his book on thinking techniques Thinking Course, De Bono tries to get his students to think. That seems obvious, but what people don't realize is that nature itself is a thinking machine and if people don't think, then nature thinks for them and most often this leads to premature death. Anne Schaef in her books on addictive processes says that addiction almost always from its nature leads to premature death. Now you ask yourself what is Arthur trying to tell me in this blog? What does he want to warn me about? What must I do to avoid premature death?
Yes! I am warning you that intelligence is not enough for survival. One needs to also be able to think, and without the ability to think, you and your relationships will almost certainly die prematurely. It is nature's way. It is nature's way to have marriages break down. It is nature's way to be deceived. It is nature's way for relationships to evolve in such a way that one party feeds on the other and the other dies prematurely.
Dominance within a relationship is nature's way. If as a human being you don't learn how to think, you will almost certainly be dominated and die prematurely. That is why it is imperative for you to take your cup of coffee and read what I am saying and then begin use DeBono's methods of thinking. It may save your life and it may help you avoid premature death. It most certainly will help your relationships with all other entities survive. Nature attracts its victims and then devours them. It is nature's oldest trick. Watch this blogspot for more to come.
