This article is an amended re-post. Previously, it was a combination of friendly self-promotion, news and some compost; that last ingredient is what is spontaneously generated when you try to do things in too much haste. This time, I have included hyperlinks embedded in each of the blue blog buttons (try saying that three times fast), which are hosted courtesy of CoolText, a wonderful graphics and design tool. If you think that you've seen this post before, you actually haven't -- as they used to say on every package in every supermarket when I was a mere lad, this article is " NEW and IMPROVED !" I've even added a picture to this article. The subject matter of the picture is irrelevant, but that doesn't make it any less entertaining - and entertainment, like education, is always welcome. Please visit some of my most popular blogs , and feel free to comment on articles, to link to any of them (and I will reciprocate your backlink with an inbound ...

Reality Versus Perception - Real Trends Versus "Aftershock" Reactions We, as Human Beings , are never particlarly good at making objective decisions, judgments or plans. We are sensorially barraged by overlapping discordant waves of staccato advertisements, promotions, and news which is more about entertainment and propaganda ( spin doctoring ) than it is about reporting of factual information. We are bombarded by the noise (and accompanying sensorial fatigue) that envelops us, and are shaped, in every aspect, by the external environment. This having been said, we are each burdened by the imposing filter of his own perception . Even if we are given the right raw data or raw material, we may misinterpret or mismanufacture. This comes from inside of us. Carried to its logical conclusion, it is very difficult for us to differentiate between what is real (and lasting), and what is imaginary (ephemeral and incorrect). We tend to live our lives in a reactiv...

Thinking is a wonderful exercise, if you are the master of your mind , and you are willing to proactively focus it in a productive direction...If you think in obsessive and expanding cycles, or dwell on things, what you are doing instead is allowing your mind to run you -- and it will indeed run you into self-doubt, anxiety, depression and a loss of perspective. Be the Commander of your Mind. Here are some seemingly irrelevant things to ponder in order to give your mind a good workout...if these distract you from your customary self-pity and introspection, if these derail the train of your soul's own undoing, then I've done you a favor. Actually, since you've made the choice to go forward and ponder these ponderables, you've done yourself a favor. Always be aware of your thinking -- try, although it might seem difficult, to detach yourself from your thinking process , and become an observer...sort of "walking around and watching" yourself. Try it. Think const...

The term "intelligence" is used in many contexts and defined in many ways; yet, no Human (scientists, entrepreneurs , psychologists and academicians of all types) has been able to come up with either a clear definition of the term, nor has there been a means of measurement created to measure it objectively for the purposes of evaluation. AI ( Artificial Intelligence ) and Entrepreneurship - The Riddle Of " Thinking Machines " At the outset, Humankind was trying to build a "smart machine" -- a robot to emulate himself (as creator and master) and to serve him. Now, you will notice that in movies, games and life, Humankind is trying to emulate the machine. We have put uniformity and conformity on a pedestal -- is if we have come to worship machines, with their predictability, conformity and strength in performing a multitude of tasks. As a society, we have changed or ideals from those of individuality, competitiveness and privacy to uniformity, subservience ...
