See my earlier blog, if you have not already done so. I apologize to those that got the shortened version of this particular blog by email. I have done this deliberately to illustrate a point. The point is that if you do not think, but just react to things around you, then you will be deceived. I refer to this as nature's oldest game. Yes! It is in the nature of nature that creatures of nature feed off each other.
You are never free of this process whereby others feed off you, and if you do not learn how to think, no matter what your intelligence is, you will die prematurely, moreover, the relationships that you do not think about will die prematurely. By this I mean your marriage, your job, your contracts in business, your mortgage. All and any of your natural relationships with people and with creations of nature. It is imperative that you therefore learn how to think, and that you actually practice the art of thinking. That's what this blogspot is all about. Its about teaching people how to think. Not what to think, but to get them engaged in the process of thinking the deBono and Anne Schaef way.
For those that don't know about Anne Schaef, let me say that she worked with the problems of the inner city where she saw first hand the processes of premature death, the results of addiction. What she realized is that society is an addict and the people making up society tend to be addicts, not all people, but most. This, she researched, led to their premature death. It will lead to your premature death if you do not begin to understand natures oldest trick of deception.
Take a cup of coffee. Take a deep breath and register to this blog if you have not already done so. It may save your life. It may save you from premature death.
