That helps. I’ve been working on things related and it seems everything can lead us to a higher consciousness. It’s a matter of getting in sync with the whole mind which is at least neutral if not positive, absolutely objective, no room for assumptions, makes no judgments only notes discrepencie and has already made sense of all we have learned. it relates all the knowledge we have and, as you say, if it needs more it knows it. We just have to go get it and test the output. It’s a quantum computer and you don’t argue with it. I don’t argue with my calculator, but I do check the results. It seems like an extension of relativity. When you relate to it, it means you relate to yourself, more or less, and to knowledge and people, basically everything. It’s definitely the way to go. It uses the model of the body with trillions of cells all working together. We need to listen. We will because we have to and it’s so much joy. Descriptive words seem to do it, but so do love, forgivness, not judging, you know, the things that they’ve been been telling us for thousands of years. Whenever we’re ready. Come out, Come out, wherever you are.

Even though your blog didn’t present itself in the way you described to me, I am glad you arrived at this conclusion and have more respect for you because of that. The same insight was the sole reason why I decided not to include any ads on my blog.

Stephen,

Your point about the RSS feeds make a lot of sense. I’m a big time scanner. I have to be because I track a couple hundred feeds or else I’d never get anything done.

There’s a very fine balance between making content accessible and making it overly structured and superficial.

John:

You really hit it on the nose with this article because my RSS Feed and email subscriptions are starting to get really, really long for the first time. I’m finding myself quickly scanning through them, sometimes not absorbing them in the way I like to process information. That means I let things fly over my head because of information overload.

I really liked what you said about not letting yourself develop a “list mentality” and look forward to seeing you balance between giving out lists and writing more substantially. I tend to do the same over at my blog and I think it’s generating some good responses.

That’s a good one, Peter. It fits right in the with GTD methodolody of deal with it, delegate it, or delete it.

Here’s a tip I like:

“Never leave the site of a good idea without taking some sort of positive action.”

Lists and tips have their place, but it’s a good idea to ensure you have a system for capturing the good ideas otherwise it just turns into a case of “ooo… that’s a good tip, NEXT”
