Games of the mind

Brain paints a picture of the world, based on data obtained from a variety of senses. Moreover, given the conscious component of the mind, we are free to interpret the resulting data as we want it. Example: a person, learn a new word - it begins to meet him everywhere. If you tell people that "you can see his life associated with the number 18," it will begin to note that went to school under such a number that the sum of the letters of the name and surname - a multiple of this number, and so on. We are able to "manipulate" the data as it is convenient to us. This does not apply to highly irritating, but in general, we are able to adjust the picture of the world as it is convenient to us. That this is the origin of all mental disorders. And that is the key to correct.

Our mind is a chaos of thoughts, feelings, and memories of incentives residues. Chaos, which is controlled from the outside, sorted and ordered mind. Chaos, on which man's power, and only selects those components that should be used. Our minds are sorted into a number of components, stereotypes, attitudes. This is not bad and not good. This is convenient and justified by the evolution of the widely used by man. This is a set of schemes that we employ in a given situation. And the circuit do not limit the person. They allow you to competently grows up, if skillfully assembled fence for climbing plants.

Yes, outside of these schemes and the related concepts is something more. Something significant, unusual, non-standard. So this "something" can be useful - is unknown. Yes, it can bring something more to the world. Something new, excellent and creative. But no more. Often, where there is no mind, there is no man.

Creative people are not just notice the effect associated with the expansion of consciousness. Yes there are creative, each of us could feel it. At the moment of intoxication, in a dream, in a state of narrowed consciousness - the idea seems great and masterpiece. But, should we return to "consciousness" as we are aware of the absurdity of a thought. Yes, there is something new and different is definitely present. But the overall benefits - leveled.

The thinking is inherent in the rules, laws and regulations. Also, there is novelty effect surprises uniqueness. And only competent synthesis of these components allows us to live. With absolute faith in order - we become blind functions, and are deprived of all the attributes of personality. When looking for "unique and unrepeatable" become ineligible for any of the spheres of activity.

Here, we have no choice. More precisely, the choice in favor of any composite component, makes us evolutionarily unadapted. Combine together. But proportionality of control and desperation, each defines himself.
