Traits Of A Beautiful Mind

--

Put simply, a beautiful mind is one that fully exercises critical thinking.

Contrary to common human practice that likes to dichotomize and/or categorize everything and divide things into simple little parts, life does not follow human rules or regulations.

Life is a beautifully designed process that follows the best possible alternative of quantum physics, and the complexity of life, in every way, keeps increasing exponentially.

This dramatic complexity augmentation has afforded humans the ability to develop a skill to handle this ever-growing complexity, turbulence and hyper-uncertainty, namely, Tropophilia through critical thinking and Open Systems Design Principles.

Ironically, most people feel they don’t have time to think, let alone to think critically!

A myriad of books have been written about a variety of human “intelligences” (e. g., Emotional Intelligence, Practical Intelligence, Analytical Intelligence, etc.) and thousands of studies have been conducted on cognitive skills that keep categorizing and dividing the brain’s properties and functions.

While this work is commendable, for it has contributed to our better understanding of the human mind in many ways, it has also created very misleading ideas in regards to how to go about fully utilizing our brain power.
