The Context of Self-Reflection
The Context of Self-Reflection
David Amerland (source of this quote), Omi Sido and John Kellden often quote themselves on Google+.
How do you get to the place where your sense of things and your self-assurance of a statement enable you to say what you think online?
David's answer is the context of activities.
The ability to do extraordinary things begins with the development of attentional networks in the mind. We cannot do something if we cannot first perceive it. To perceive it we have to be able to sense it and evaluate it in the context of our activities. The paradox is that deep perception and subliminal sensing take place well below the conscious threshold of our minds.
A quote to ponder.
Here's a quiet space to further subliminal context from Oleg Moskalensky https://goo.gl/JMjgZ8
See you on the interwebz!

Understanding the Attention Economy
There are deep implications in how you capture someone's attention on the web when even our own conscious attention levels mislead us in terms of how we decide to pay attention to something, make a purchase or visit a particular website. There is an implied responsibility here to not just work to develop ourselves but also work hard to develop our audience. Then the connections and conversations we have would take place in a shared, possibly even co-created, space. What we more formally would call framework.
I usually cringe a lot. :)
ReplyDeleteJohn Kellden Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteGood writers like David Amerland invoke the thinking process so you need to pay close attention to get the best of what they're saying
ReplyDeleteJohn Kellden and Omi Sido also have a very keen eye for collating the timely sayings of others

There's also a bit of method to the madness:

"In a network, the ability to perform is a function of how ready and willing we are to turn select parts of our attention into awareness."
@johnkellden
I left the threshold part of David's quote out. Platforms and data both compounds the wickedness and paradox with our perceiving things - and - it also might provide us with (new, different) paths and protocols.
John Kellden New paths, different paths. Staying open to see them.
