—remember—

‘the deeper and more emotionally charged our beliefs – the greater the changes we are capable of producing’

well in that case i got enough juice to power a powerplant, i got enough change power to rack up a whole stack ‘a laundry quarters n shit, i gotta watch which direction so wisely, ya know?

how to become a meta-programmer

‘when you are using a computer application, you do not see or care about the individual lines of code, unless you’re doing the coding yourself. This is what synchromysticism is about, becoming a meta-programmer.’

some guy named tommy commented this in response to a blog i follow.  i think it is a perfect description of the usefulness of tuning into all these synchronicities, wherever you choose to use as your field.  (i don’t watch tv or movies, but i always read the world like a book.)

come play

“The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.” (Carl Jung)

“Try it, it’s so easy, why don’t you want to play?  You know that’s how I talk to myself, when I’m all alone, I tell myself stories…actually, I live this way altogether.”  (from Nadja)

Also:  play as supernormal stimulus 

infer all you want

the mind is not inductive, as shakespeare’s contemporary francis bacon suggested thinking should be.  we do not patiently wait for all available evidence before advancing as short an additional distance as possible to our conclusion.  instead, we hastily construct inferences that reach well beyond what we find and that nevertheless, as in this case, thanks to the writer’s skill, hit home.  p. 10 On the Origin of Stories:  Evolution, Cognition and Fiction
