The Nurturer

"Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see."

Creatives think outside the box and come up with fresh, innovative ideas. They can make big changes happen.But sometimes, these dreamers find it hard to explain their unconventional ideas to others. They may need to find simpler ways to express them.

The Creative Mind

"The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination."

Guardians protect and preserve traditional values and methods.They focus on the practical aspects of ideas to safeguard the stability of their organizations. Their pragmatic approach is vital in maintaining the continuity and effectiveness of established systems, though it may sometimes be perceived as resistance to change.🛡️Protecting and honoring traditions is what Guardians do best. Their practical mindset preserves the stability of their organizations but can also appear reluctant to embrace change.

The Guardian

"Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire."

Connectors:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Brings people together</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Builds networks</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Promotes cooperation</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Enhances team dynamics</li></ul>They use their interpersonal skills to make everyone feel included and valued, leading to a harmonious work environment. 😊

The 5 Voices

Rupert Sheldrake challenges the conventional view that the mind is confined solely within the brain, arguing instead for a more expansive understanding of consciousness.

Overview

Materialist Assumption: - Traditional science confines the mind to the brain, adhering to materialist philosophy. - Sheldrake views this as an unnecessary limitation that restricts our understanding of consciousness. - [More on materialism in science] for mor information <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/neuroscience/materialism">Click here</a>

The Limits of Materialist Thinking

Introduction of Fields- Modern science recognizes fields as invisible regions of influence extending beyond physical objects. - Examples include gravitational, electromagnetic, and morphic fieldsFor more info on this <a href="https://www.britannica.com/science/field-physics">Click here</a>

The Concept of Fields

- Sheldrake proposes that the mind also extends beyond the body through similar fields. - This suggests that consciousness is not just brain-bound but interacts with these fields.For more information <a href="https://www.sheldrake.org/research/morphic-resonance">Click here</a>

Mind's Fields

Traditional Intromission Theory: - Vision is traditionally seen as images formed inside the head from external stimuli. For more <a href="https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/medieval-theories-representation/">Click here</a>Extramission Theory: - Sheldrake supports extramission theory: the mind projects images outward to where objects are located.For more <a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0022167813497423">Click here</a> - This perspective aligns with experiences and experiments showing a felt force from gazes.

Vision and Perception

Empirical Evidence: - Studies document the phenomenon of feeling stared at, even without visual confirmation.For more info <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC164709/">Click here</a>

The Sense of Being Stared At

Beyond Brain Confines: - Moving beyond the brain-bound concept of the mind can lead to a broader understanding of consciousness. - This broader view considers interactions with electromagnetic and other fields.For.

Implications for Understanding Consciousness

Broader Perspective: - Sheldrake's ideas encourage reconsidering the limitations of materialist assumptions. - By exploring the concept of mind fields, we may achieve a deeper understanding of consciousness and its relationship with the physical world.For more info <a href="https://www.sheldrake.org/essays/the-extended-mind">Click here</a>

Conclusion

Thank you!

In this episode Rupert Sheldrake, biologist and author, debunks the standard view that the mind is nothing but brain activity and argues that our mind is extended in every act of visual perception. 

Rupert has designed an app to enable you to test your sensitivity to being looked at from behind, and to find out if you can improve with practice. The test takes just a few minutes to complete. https://www.sheldrake.org/participate .  If you find you or your partner can indeed improve with practice, scoring repeatedly and fairly reliably above 75%, please let us know by email at sheldrake@sheldrake.org

Evidence That Your Mind is NOT Just In Your Brain - Rupert Sheldrake

Discover how maladaptive daydreaming can cause individuals to lose track of their surroundings and reality. Understand the negative impact on personal and professional responsibilities as people become absorbed in their daydreams.

Sign 1: Losing Track of Reality

Explore the emotional distress caused by the excessive time spent daydreaming. Learn how individuals struggle with their obligations as they feel conflicted between enjoying their daydreams and attending to real-life responsibilities.

Sign 2: Distress from Daydreaming

Understand why individuals with maladaptive daydreaming often prefer their daydreams over engaging in social activities or hobbies. This preference can lead to social isolation as they choose the comfort and control of their daydreams over the unpredictability of real-life interactions, impacting their relationships and social skills.

Sign 3:Preferring Daydreams Over Socializing

Learn about the heightened sensory experiences reported by those with maladaptive daydreaming. These individuals often experience vivid tactile sensations, sounds, and visual elements that make their daydreams feel intensely real and captivating. This heightened perception can make it even harder to pull away from their fantasies and engage with the real world.

Sign 4: Enhanced Sensory Perception

Investigate the challenges faced by individuals who cannot control the amount of time they spend daydreaming. This lack of regulation leads to significant disruptions in their daily lives, with some spending hours lost in their fantasies. This inability to limit daydreaming can interfere with work, relationships, and overall productivity.

Sign 5: Lack of Control Over Daydreaming

Find out how to recognize the signs of maladaptive daydreaming in yourself or others. Learn about the importance of seeking professional help to manage this condition. Therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can help individuals develop strategies to control their daydreaming and improve their daily functioning.

Seeking Help for Maladaptive Daydreaming

I never thought daydreaming could get that bad and be considered a disorder at some point, so this was definitely an interesting video!

Maladaptive Dreaming (MD) is a psychiatric condition that causes intense daydreaming and fantasizing that distracts a person from their real life. Maladaptive daydreaming disturbs everyday functioning, which includes academics, work, and other regular activities. Do you find yourself emersed in daydreams? Daydreaming can be harmless, creative, and fun, but excessive daydreaming can negatively interfere with your goals and daily tasks in your life. 

In our previous video, we talked about Maladaptive Daydreaming and what it is. You can check it out here: https://youtu.be/VxVOuCg-NG0

You have to have inspiration or a picture that pops into your head or you won't be able to get what you wanted.

Inspiration

Picture the painting you will make. Think of techniques and colors you will use.

Now we have reached the stage where figuring out what to focus on becomes a real possibility.You have experimented with enough ideas to discover one or two options that seem to provide better than average results for you. You’ve overcome the hurdle of wanting more information and the fear of committing to something and now you’ve made a choice. You took the job. You started the business. You signed up for the class. You’re ready.Welcome to the grind. It’s time to put in a volume of work. Not just once or twice. Not just when it’s easy. But a consistent, repeated volume of work.

You’re going to have to try on a lot of clothes before you can simplify down to the essentials. You’ll probably have to buy a lot of clothes before you can really get a feel for what your day-in, day-out style is. I’m not a fan of promoting rampant consumerism, but if that’s the skill set you want to develop then it’s likely going to take some experimentation and effort.

Want to dress well and develop killer style?

How many bad meals do you think you need to make before you can whip up a “simple, but tasty dinner” whenever you feel like it? I’d say hundreds at least. I don’t know many people who are amazing cooks after making their tenth meal ever. Developing a deep understanding of the fundamentals of cooking takes a while.

Want to become a great cook?

The more I study successful people from all walks of life—artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, scientists—the more I believe focus is a core factor of success.But there is a problem with this advice too.Of the many options in front of you, how do you know what to focus on? How do you know where to direct your energy and attention? How do you determine the one thing that you should commit to doing?

The best answer I can give is to pay attention. Usually, this means <a href="https://jamesclear.com/measuring">measuring something </a>. <ul><li>If you’re an entrepreneur, track your marketing and promotion efforts. </li><li>If you’re trying to gain muscle, <a href="https://jamesclear.com/workout-journal">track your workouts </a>. </li><li>If you’re learning an instrument, <a href="https://jamesclear.com/stop-procrastinating-seinfeld-strategy">track your practice sessions </a>. </li> </ul>Even when you do measure things, however, there comes a point where you have to make a call and decide what to focus on.

It is through this sheer number of repetitions that you’ll come to understand the fundamentals of your task. You might know what greatness looks like before this point, but you won’t understand how to achieve greatness until you’ve put the work in yourself. In the <a href="https://jamesclear.com/ira-glass-failure">words of Ira Glass </a>, “your taste is good enough that you can tell that what you’re making is kind of a disappointment to you.” You’ll bridge that gap between what you know is good and what you can produce yourself by <a href="https://jamesclear.com/repetitions">putting in the reps </a>. This applies to so many areas of life.

Now, finally, after trying many things and figuring out what to focus on and putting in enough reps, you can begin to simplify. You can trim away the fat because you know what is essential and what is unnecessary. As the Frenchman Blaise Pascal famously wrote in his Provincial Letters, “If I had more time, I would have written you a shorter letter.” Mastering the fundamentals is often the hardest and longest journey of all.

The more I study successful people from all walks of life, the more I believe focus is a core factor of success. But how do you know what to focus on?

How Experts Figure What to Focus On

"Doing comedy alone onstage is the ego's last stand."

Darkness is essential: If light is thrown on the audience, they don't laugh; I might as well have told them to still and be quiet.

"The comedian's slang for a successful show is "I murdered them," which I'm sure came about because you finally realize that the audience is capable of murdering you."

"This book is not an autobiography but a biography, because I am writing about someone I used to know. Yes, these events are true, yet sometimes they seemed to have happened to someone else, and I often felt like a curious onlooker or someone trying to remember a death."

"I could not sing or dance, and the only acting I did was really just shouting. Thankfully perseverence is a great substitute for talent."

"Despite a lack of natural ability, I did have the one element necessary to all early creativity: naïveté, that fabulous quality that keeps you from knowing just how unsuited you are for what you are about to do."

"I have learned there is no harm in charging oneself up with delusions between moments of valid inspirations."

"Any new social philosophy is good for creativity."

"Teaching is, after all, a form of show business."

"I felt that a career in the irrational world of creativity not only made sense but had moral purpose."

"Comedy is a distortion of what is happening, and there will always be something happening."

"It was easy to be great. Every entertainer has a night when everything is clicking. These nights are accidental and statistical: Like lucky cards in poker, you can count on them occurring over time. What was hard was to be good, consistently good, night after night, no matter what the abominable circumstances."

"The few hours I spent in the clubs and coffeehouses seemed like a full existence."

"Celebrities want fame when it's useful and don't when it's not. That argument is absolutely true."

"Movies were social; stand-up was antisocial."

"In psychoanalysis, you try to retain a discovery; in art, once the thing is made, you let it go."

Quotes from one of the greatest multihyphenates of all time, Steve Martin.

Steve Martin has been an international star for over thirty years. Here, for the first time, he looks back to the beginning of his career and charmingly evokes the young man he once was. Born in Texas but raised in California, Steve was seduced early by the comedy shows that played on the radio when the family travelled back and forth to visit relatives. When Disneyland opened just a couple of miles away from home, an enchanted Steve was given his first chance to learn magic and entertain an audience. He describes how he noted the reaction to each joke in a ledger - 'big laugh' or 'quiet' - and assiduously studied the acts of colleagues, stealing jokes when needed. With superb detail, Steve recreates the world of small, dark clubs and the fear and exhilaration of standing in the spotlight. While a philosophy student at UCLA, he worked hard at local clubs honing his comedy and slowly attracting a following until he was picked up to write for TV. From here on, Steve Martin became an acclaimed comedian, packing out venues nationwide. One night, however, he noticed empty seats and realised he had 'reached the top of the rollercoaster'. BORN STANDING UP is a funny and riveting chronicle of how Steve Martin became the comedy genius we now know and is also a fascinating portrait of an era.
