In the field of psychology
Sammie Coates Steelers Jersey , many people are aware of how trauma can ruin a person?s life, throwing it off-track, bringing misery and chaos in it?s
wake. But what most people are not aware of is that the opposite can happen.
Something really good can happen to a person that elevates their lives to the
level of greatness. For lack of a better term, I am calling this experience
?profound knowledge.? This is something fascinating and worth exploring. A
13-year-old-boy boy in Singapore went to an accelerated learning workshop called
Super-Teen that used many of Tony Buzan?s ideas. He went from the bottom of his
class to the top of his school in academic performance in a year. He topped his
?O? level examinations, scoring in the 1 percentile bracket. Then he did the
same thing with his ?A? level examinations and was admitted to the best
university in the country. He also became a multimillionaire by the age of 26.
Today he is a leading educational and business figure in Singapore. Millions
seek to learn from him how to shift their lives. His books have been on the
best-seller lists. Similarly, another boy, this one an American, went to a
Summer Camp. He, too, was at the bottom of his class. He was taking remedial
learning classes in this camp, but, as usual, not doing well. He spent his
afternoons at the bottom of a swimming pool, practicing how to hold his breath.
Something remarkable happened. This little game expanded his carotid artery,
literally allowing his brain to take in more oxygen from his lungs. And he went
from straight F?s to straight A?s to everyone?s amazement, including his own.
All he did was accidentally learn how to breathe in a much deeper way! Years
later, when he was a leading educational figure in America, he recalls this
incident as the turning point in his life. Today he has a doctorate in education
and is creating programs and systems that teach people how to think like a
genius. In fact, in his own right
Jack Lambert Steelers Jersey , he is considered a genius. I?ll give you one more true story. Again, this is another American boy. He loved to play
baseball but was hopeless at it. He could barely bat. His father took him to see
an educational expert (the same one mentioned earlier) and after a brief session
of guided imagery, the boy had an unconscious perception of how to swing the bat
and connect with the ball. From that point on he began to play well, and in a
short time started to star, until he ended up becoming an MVP, a Most Valued
Player, in his school district. Sometimes, this ?profound knowledge? can affect
a whole culture. When Edward Deming went to help post-war Japan recover, his
ideas so impacted his audience that it made Japan one of the world?s leading
manufacturers of top quality products. Usually, this is the cycle of the
reception of ?profound knowledge:? There is an upset. This happens usually in
childhood, when we are more open and vulnerable, more na?ve about how the world
works. Then something happens, usually by accident, that completely changes our
world-view overnight. This is a piece of information that completely solves our
major problem. Someone or something happens to give us ?profound knowledge.? We
then embrace this experience, ?take it to heart? and it transforms our world.
Now the most interesting thing about this ?profound knowledge? is that it not
only starts to work immediately, but increases in ?profoundness? over time,
until it reaches astonishing proportions. It does happen in adulthood as well,
but rarely. This is because adults are generally less open and impressionable.
Most cases occur in entrepreneurial businesses, where one day
Ben Roethlisberger Steelers Jersey , someone is struggling, with barely enough to eat, and then, to everyone?s surprise, they connect with ?profound
knowledge? and go on to make millions. Now that you have become aware of
?profound knowledge? review your own life and see if you can find any incidents
that could have lifted you to another level. Once you find this incident, see if
there is a way for you to revisit it and embrace it?s silent and invisible
power. You are looking for three things: (a) an upset; (b) a receptivity; (c)
exposure to profound knowledge. If you can find this incident in your past, it
will be well worth your while to see if you can nurture it and bring it into
your present experience. It may have been a course you took or a book you read
or something someone said to you. It may have been a person who helped and
inspired you and made you realize your own special gifts. It may have been an
insight you suddenly stumbled upon while doing something quite mundane but that
made you stop in astonishment. Once you find it, see if you can evoke the mood,
and also note how you just missed embracing it. Now, in the present moment, see
how you can amplify it; then, make it alive enough for you to transform it into
?profound knowledge.? Author's Resource Box Saleem Rana would love to share his

Isnt Worried About Uncertain Future With Mets - RealGM Wiretap
Terry Collins believes the New York Mets have a bright future with their young starters, but isn't sure if he'll be around to experience it.
"That's a good question. I don't have an answer for it," Collins said when asked about his future.
His contract as manager is set to expire after this season.
"I have no idea," Collins said when asked if he thought an extension would be discussed during the season. "I'm telling you, I don't think about it. I think
about playing golf in November. That's the only thing on my mind right now."
