In the twenty-first century, the most important kind of mind will be the synthesizing mind.

Intelligence is problem-solving and question-raising ability within an area you value.People have unique profiles across 8 intelligences - like linguistic, logical, musical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal and naturalist.Content matters more than a single “general intelligence.”

Multiple Intelligences Theory

There are 5 minds vital for cognition - respectful, ethical, disciplined, creating and synthesizing.Respectful and ethical govern social interactions. Disciplined, creating and synthesizing describe thinking and learning.You need discipline to master a domain before meaningful synthesis or creativity.

The Five Key Minds

Synthesizing means taking in information then organizing it usefully for yourself and others.Psychology doesn’t really explain this: You synthesize using your own favored intelligences.<ul><li>Asking good questions and articulating reasons are crucial.</li><li>Metaphorical thinking helps capture connections.</li></ul>

The Synthesizing Mind

<ul><li>Synthesis varies - from conventional textbook summaries to original ideas advancing knowledge.</li><li>“Hedgehog” syntheses make one grand point while “fox-like” syntheses embrace plurality.</li><li>Synthesis requires artistry in structure, arrangement and communication.</li><li>Data constraints distinguish it from pure art.</li></ul>

Varieties of Synthesis

Synthesizers exhibit wide curiosity, ask good questions, have broad knowledge, read widely, collect information, oscillate between wandering and focus, and connect concepts across disciplines.Consider your nature, goals, and favored intelligences to evaluate synthesizing abilities.

How The Synthesizers Mind Works

<ul><li>Synthesis encompasses everything from school assignments to original ideas advancing knowledge.</li><li>Some syntheses make one key point while others delight in plurality.</li><li>Data constraints and communication artistry distinguish synthesis from pure creation.</li></ul>

A Continuum of Synthesis

We should spend less time ranking children and more time helping them to identify their natural competencies and gifts and cultivate these. There are hundreds and hundreds of ways to succeed and many, many different abilities that will help you get there.

A Synthesizing Mind is a memoir from the creator of Multiple Intelligences Theory, written by renowned psychologist Howard Gardner. The book was published in 2020 and provides a look into Gardner's life and work, including his theories on multiple intelligences and the Five Minds. It provides an in-depth look at how Gardner arrived at his theories and how they have been applied in educational contexts. The book also explores how Gardner's theories can be applied to a wide range of fields, from business and healthcare to technology, media, and the arts.

An authority on the human mind reflects on his intellectual development, his groundbreaking work, and different types of intelligences--including his own. Howard Gardner's Frames of Mind was that rare publishing phenomenon--a mind-changer. Widely read by the general public as well as by educators, this influential book laid out Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. It debunked the primacy of the IQ test and inspired new approaches to education; entire curricula, schools, museums, and parents' guides were dedicated to the nurturing of the several intelligences. In his new book, A Synthesizing Mind, Gardner reflects on his intellectual development and his groundbreaking work, tracing his evolution from bookish child to eager college student to disengaged graduate student to Harvard professor.

The Picasso Principle — Habits of Highly Prolific Minds

It took thousands of years for the European culture to realise that a child is not an object but a human being.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau wrote in Emile, or On Education (1762), that "nature wants children to be children before they are men." He did not see children as humans but appealed to parents to look after their offspring. However, he did not take his own ideas to heart and abandoned his offspring at birth.

Children as objects

<ul>
<li>In ancient Greece, babies were often left by the road or in the garbage. If a passer-by took the child, it was often raised for the slave market. This is because children were considered private property.</li>
<li>The Romans followed the custom to put a newborn on the ground just after birth. If the father picked the baby up, the mother could care for it. If not, the newborn was thrown away.</li>
<li>When Greeks and Romans did decide to raise their offspring, they showed them love and attention. Plato wrote that parents have the duty to care for their children's physical and mental development.</li>
</ul>

Ancient cruelty

Christians condemned the practice of abandonment of newborns and ordered followers to care unconditionally for every child. This trend became so strong that it survived the fall of the Empire. Unwanted children ended up in shelters opened by monasteries. 
Legal provisions outlawed parents from killing, mutilating and selling children. As children survived into adulthood, parents did not develop emotional ties with their offspring. During the Middle Ages, most European languages did not contain the word 'child'.

Condemning the practice of abandonment

During the Middle Ages, families decided the fate of the children. The canon law of the Catholic Church stated that a bride had to be older than 12 and the groom, 14. But the father, desiring to increase his resources and prestige, looked for a daughter- or son-in-law immediately after a child's birth.
Interest in children as persons was revived in Europe when ancient philosophers' writings were discovered, and the fashion for educating children returned.

Children as independent beings

At first, corporeal punishment was the primary tool in the education process. In the 17th century, philosopher John Locke urged parents to use praise to stimulate children to learn and behave well.
The fashion then was for a wet nurse to feed a newborn, and then the child was passed on to grandparents or poor relatives for a salary. The child would return home around age five and be educated by the biological mother. Rousseau condemned all of this. After Emil, it became fashionable for the mother to breastfeed her child.

Education and corporeal punishment

In the 18th century, it became the norm again to abandon unwanted children. They usually went to care facilities, but few survived into adulthood. Condemnation by the Catholic and Protestant churches did not help.
The Industrial Revolution turned out to be more effective. In Great Britain, the financing of shelters placed a burden on municipal budgets, but the new cotton mills in Lancashire, Derby, and Notts were seen as a godsend. Orphans became a source of cheap labour, working twelve hours a day. They had to earn a living to receive shelter and food.

Shelter and factory

German educator Friedrich Fröbel gave lectures on returning children to their childhoods and encouraged adults to provide children with care and free education.
In 1839, the Prussian government reacted by banning the employment of minors. France followed two years later. Britain only adopted the Factory Act in 1844. The legislation prohibited children under 13 from working in factories longer than six hours per day and required children to be educated in factory schools.

Emerging morality

In April 1874, under the guidance of social activist Etty Wheeler, 10-year-old Mary Ellen Wilson told a New York court of her almost daily whipping by her stepmother. The request for intervention was repeatedly refused, and Wheeler turned to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) for help.
Its president Henry Bergh agreed that the child was not her guardians' property and established American Humane, an NGO fighting to protect harmed creatures, including children.

Fighting to protect children

Towards the end of the 19th century, the custom of entrusting the care of offspring to strangers fell away. Parents were urged to provide their offspring with love and a sense of security.
But the pioneering work by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels proposed that home education ought to be replaced by social education. The aim was to prepare young people to fight the conservative generation of parents for a new world. In 1924, the League of Nations adopted a Declaration of the Rights of the Child, although it's still not implemented in many parts of the world.

The rights of the child

It has taken thousands of years for our view of childhood to develop into what it is today, i.e. that children should be educated and safe from harm. What drove this change after centuries of child workers and cruelty against children? We look at the history of children in Europe in this article.

The Japanese have a secret that embodies the idea of happiness in living, and it is called Ikigai.Essentially, Ikigai, loosely translated to life value, or life worth, is a concept of living that the Japanese culture imbibes for decades.

Life Value

Ikigai is illustrated in four overlapping circles, as in a Venn Diagram which talks about a synthesis of:<ul><li>What you love to do.</li><li>What you are good at.</li><li>What the world needs.</li><li>What you can be paid for.</li></ul>

Ikigai: The Reason for Being

According to psychiatrist Mieko Kamiya, the concept of Ikigai is similar to happiness, but with a difference.Ikigai looks at the larger picture of life, allowing you to be ok with a miserable situation, as the grand vision of life, and the future is still positive.

Ikigai and Happiness

The concept of Ikigai aligns with everyday life, as opposed to a lifetime. It makes us appreciate our daily life, celebrating it, and experiencing the small joys of living.Ikigai is the reason you wake up in the morning for, that thing you live for, daily.

Everyday Life and a Lifetime

Japanese have a large number of senior citizens, including many centenarians, with the average lifetime being 87 years for women and 81 years for men.Ikigai has been a major reason for the long life of the Japanese, along with special kinds of diets.

Ikigai and Longevity

Make three small lists:<ul><li>Your values</li><li>Things you like to do</li><li>Things you are good at</li></ul>The cross-section or overlap of these three lists, is your Ikigai, something you should do for the rest of your life.

Make Your Ikigai

Ikigai is not a theoretical concept to be understood and left aside, and can only work in daily action and constant practice.Your work should make a difference in people's lives, and not necessarily would be just working hard.

Purpose of Action

Japannesse know something we in the West we ignore

For Japanese workers in big cities, a typical work day begins with a state called sushi-zum e, a term which likens commuters squeezed into a crowded train car to tightly packed grains of rice in sushi. The stress doesn't stop there.

Ikigai: A Japanese concept to improve work and life

Doing more in less time is not the ultimate solution to productivity. It's the path to burnout.
Productivity rests more on small improvements. By focusing on the small things, the big things will take care of themselves.

Focus on the small improvements

Most people perform a combination of varied small tasks in a day. There may be many small improvements you could make to your workflow or environment to get more done.
Step one is finding out what those things are. Involve your peers or your manager if you need help with this.

Identify the small improvements you could make

Every week, choose one thing from your list and focus on it. 
<ul>
<li>Think of ways to improve this one thing.</li>
<li>Experiment, and see what works.</li>
<li>Talk about this one thing with your manager and ask for feedback.</li>
</ul>
The goal is to find ways to improve that small part of your work.

Work on one improvement at a time

Communicate how the small changes helped you to improve. After a week focusing on this one thing, our natural tendency is to want to share how we did toward our output.
Be sure to talk about the small thing you focused on. It will help reinforce that focusing on the little things consistently over time will produce big results.

Communicate your improvements

Large, abstract goals are intimidating. This is why focusing on smaller areas for improvement can put us in control over our own development.
Instead of an abstract goal like "becoming a better manager", you could use an actionable step like, " I want to devote one hour a week to preparing more for my 1:1s with my team."

Small things add up

As a support trainer, I've learned that getting more done depends on thinking small. Find one small thing you can do better, focus on doing that for a week, then repeat that process.

Why big changes happen when you focus on small improvements

"If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution."

Stop whatever you're doing right now and notice the pattern that has been going on that's caused you despair and change it, regroup it, and remove yourself from the situation.
Don't let the fear of failure take over because you refuse to live in anguish any longer. Take the time away from everything that is stressing you out and for as long as you need until you're ready to face the challenges if you ever choose to do so.

Break The Pattern

Concentrate on relaxing, recovering, and giving yourself constructively, healthy thoughts and experiences. Change your everyday habits to more relaxing pursuits and practice silence in order to clear your mind.
If your space of healing allows, make time for your friends and your loved ones.

Free Your Mind

Look for something that sparks your interest and gather ideas from the internet, acquaintances, podcasts, or recommendations and dive in.

Collect Ideas To Kick-Start Your Thinking

Gently daydream about the possibilities you have with your new ideas, but try to approach it in a more relaxed manner where it will naturally surface.

Give Your Situation Some Preliminary Thought

It takes time for our minds to process the situation properly. Practice patience because you do not need all of the answers right at this instant. Like with any creative process, the first answers aren't usually the best ones.
Keep in mind that the right answers will arrive in due time.

Trust The Process

The advice that you've found or that was given to you was uplifting and hopeful. This has given you a more positive outlook in life but what are the steps you can take in order to put your new ideas into practice?

Reset Your Reality Through Change

In order to make positive changes and heavily impact your life, it is important to identify the thoughts and actions that put ourselves in the hole of despair in the first place in order to uproot it.
Life seems rough from time to time but we must not lose focus on what's important to us.

Identify What Caused Your Situation In The First Place

No matter how bad life seems, you can find the way out of despair. Here's how.

7 Steps to Overcome Daily Despair and Start Living Again

“What Sherlock Holmes offers isn’t just a way of solving a crime. It is an entire way of thinking.""Holmes provides... an education in improving our faculty of mindful thought and in using it in order to accomplish more, think better, and decide more optimally." - Ellen Langer

Think like Sherlock Holmes

As children, we are remarkably aware to the world around us. This attention wanes over time as we allow more pressing responsibilities to attend to and demands on our minds to address. And as the demands on our attention increase so, too, does our actual attention decrease.<div> As it does so, we become less and less able to know or notice our own thought habits and more and more allow our minds to dictate our judgments and decisions, instead of the other way around.<div>
<h2></h2></div></div>

Engagement

Daniel Kahneman believes there are two systems for organizing and filtering knowledge: <ul><li>System one is real-time. This system makes judgments and decisions before our mental apparatus can consciously catch up. </li><li>System two, on the other hand, is a slow process of thinking based on critical examination of evidence. Konnikova refers to these as System Watson and System Holmes.</li></ul>To move from a System Watson- to a System Holmes-governed thinking takes mindfulness plus motivation.

Pitfalls of the Untrained Brain

As Holmes tells Watson, “I consider that a man’s brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose.”Attics have two components: structure and contents. Your memory attic should not be jumbled and mindless so that knowledge gets lost.

Respect the Memory Attic

<blockquote>"To cultivate our knowledge actively, we need to realize that items are being pushed into our attic space at every opportunity. "</blockquote><blockquote> When we’re in our default System Watson mode, we don’t “choose” which memories to store. They just kind of store themselves—or they don’t, as the case may be.</blockquote>

Cultivating knowledge

Before we include something in our brain attic we must first observe it.It’s not just about the passive process of letting objects enter into your visual field. It is about knowing what and how to observe and directing your attention accordingly: what details do you focus on? What details do you omit? It’s about understanding how to contextualize those details within a broader framework of thought.

Observation

Attention is a limited resource. Paying attention to one thing necessarily comes at the expense of another.We cannot allocate our attention to multiple things at once and expect it to function at the same level as it would were we to focus on just one activity.

Paying Attention Is Anything but Elementary

<h2>Habit and motivation. Become an expert of sorts at those types of decisions or observation that you want to excel at making.</h2>

The Holmes solution is Habit

To think we also need distance.Forcing your mind to take a step back is a tough thing to do. It seems counterintuitive to walk away from a problem that you want to solve.Not only does distance facilitate imaginative thinking but it also helps counter short-term emotions.
