I said choose to because whether they do it "intentionally or unintentionally" everyone chooses which role they want to play either big or small we always know were we are at with ourselves and no one can say they haven't heard of the different prototypes or blueprints that's available to advance one's self,to the next phase or stage,it truly comes down to what do you believe in or what do you know as being absolute truths for you because that determines what you step into or what you don't,that is why,to have the strength to move on,whether from...
I would argue that new observations in neuro science converges with psychology, behavioral biology, and ethology....that people DO NOT choose who they are, as an array of factors from, genetic markers, to predispositions, to environment, create the neural networks, and thought processes, so one cannot choose to do anything one is merely a fascinatingly complicated biological machine.

Hey poundtrade kudos for starting this up,I like this thread Alot,this is my kind of thread,to hear from a whole LOT of people's different views on what mind frame and attitude has worked for them and also I will assume some are just sharing what they think,it takes to "make it" because I know everyone here who provided sound advice has not made their projections as of yet but just to let ya'll know your on the right track`Keep up the great work/mind


It's always your perception on things and I realized at an early age in order to be diverse you have to have an open mind,what may work for someone may not work for another but then you mix up both methods to make it work for you if you don't like the initial options presented.And of course their's the hardest road being original and creating an option like drawing fractal algorithms kinda like The inventors with their patents *)

Now think about these questions as being based on programs or courses that you may see fit for you about whatever topic you please:what are you tackling,why are you tackling it,how(from what angle,perception)are you tackling it,when will you begin tackling it,where should you be and end up after tackling it

RedLion I hear and respect everything your saying because your not wrong or totally lying but I feel you only to an certain extent

Like right now I can choose to throw my cat out the window(don't worry of course I won't *) that would not be some machine telling me to do that,that would be my choice to become that type of person

I got you,I know where this is heading and I won't refute your analysis totally
but to answer your question fairly I won't throw my cat out of my window now or anytime in the future because I choose not to be that type of person who can live with they self for doing such a thing and I never will

Sorta like asking why don't I get a bazooka with uzi's and just become a serial killer/rapist I chose ever since I was young to never be on that side of the fence like I was one of them kids who was telling my moms adults friends truthfully that I want to be a doctor or scientist or something of that nature

you won't do it because you are not that type of person.....that was your answer, that was my point.

why are you not that type of person, could it possibly be your up bringing, what you consider to be socially acceptable, your anterior cingulate, your limbic system, your pre frontal cortex. etc....etc....

you have not choice but to be who you are.

Hey redlion I like you Because in this thread their are no right or wrong answer if your talking about thinking good,plus from my view your not saying anything bad and your not totally wrong,I mean we are dealing with what's right and what's a wrong way to think successfully right it's the way your saying it and how you say it,it's only a piece of the puzzle and not the whole lot because we can all agree in no society on planet earth or in this universe and the many other universes is it right to seek someone's head on a platter simply because you want it

Also whatever thoughts you may have even if they are Total facts(what your saying is not) can not be determined for someone else to view exactly the same as you do,in other words you cannot tell someone how to think or what to believe in or what to know about you can only give advice or make suggestions

But all in all I believe that's what's good about this thread it's a place for us all to see how someone who strives to be successful daily thinks and the more insight we gain from one another the more versatile we become when dealing with others because we can see were they're coming from

to be honest...It is not a belief, it is a scientific field of study called, neuroscience.

free will experiments have been done using fMRI,EEG, MRI, and open cortex electron studies.
the findings are corroborated by molecular biology, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, ethology, can also be observable with endocrinology as the hypothalamus sends hormones to the pituitary gland to regulate the systemic processes.

here are some good lectures or information you can seek on the matter
watch

professor Robert Sapolski from Standford University on Youtube
Baroness Susan Greenfield from ANU
lecture series by Arizona state
Dr Sam Harris "free will"
Dr daniel Dennette on free will
lectures on psychology by Dr bloom from yale university


the brain is a fascinating organ that acts as a predictive machine building models of reality from a limited input of data....most information in the real world is too much for our brains so it is discarded and interpreted creating many a deficiency ie optical, auditory, and cognitive illusions.

it works by an array of complex network of neural connections, the plasticity in the brain forms dendritic ramifications at the synapses.

If you wish we could have this conversation somewhere else, as this thread is not about neurscience, nor neurology.

free will is an illusion, conciousness itself is a memory of the present moment, and reality is merely an incomplete interpretation.

I like the way you think but I don't rely only on science as the all because science cannot locate the spirit or intuition and other non physical things we know exist besides some of it is just what it is,research,speculated upon that has yet to be concluded and if I do remember not all work is agreed upon by fellow peers like even scientists disagree with one another and also if you ask me till this day I still don't believe anyone's been to the moon

Whatever works for you like I'm a firm believer in there being no such thing as luck only SKILL is what we have and need to rely on which I almost got into it with a certain lucky guy for suggesting,you see to break the hive mind and to build an ultimate hybrid mind that can adapt to any condition is what can happen if you only try to understand what everybody that's successful sees which is the main point of this thread to try to grasp the angles of the different viewpoints seen through other perceptions

hello slim although your flamboyant and fast i like your style because I know where your coming from I visit NYC alot but remember slim you mentioned the word,SANE to me?,take a look around my digital trader buddy were in the wonderful f*#@$%n world of forex! genius is borderline insanity because the topics you will bring up would not have otherwise be mentioned normally i mean look and ask yourself how many people outside this digital world you know that even knows that this currency world exists,you say it on the street people look at you like a zombie like so your a currency trader huh? I officially have only seen one commercial on espn with the lady talking to the guy about how she wanted to trade the biggest market of them all and I know most average folk know about stocks or maybe even commodities but you have to admit this is a pretty special club even for the ones who fail never to return again trust me don't take this for granted just knowing about this trade skill is great to harness if willing but that's why I promote this thread to hear from minds such as yours and all others to see the different outlooks on the views to sustain success

I can also guarantee you I'm not the only person in the whole planet who believes this,If an object passes a certain distance past the earth's ionosphere and stratosphere it should explode or the more improbable thing drift off into outer space because theirs no gravity Now lie and say you haven't heard of the theory,you just don't believe it right,well I do as well as some others

But we can be here all day about what's real for you and what's real for me like I also believe what happened to the manchurian candidates and also the philadelphia experiment and mk ultra with project paperclip I mean the list goes on honestly your talking to mr conspiracy himself Pac ain't dead he turned his name after Niccolo Machiavelli who faked his you know what

The main focus of this thread is what's working to help you think better to become successful everyday it's not about our personal opinions on our life only whats working for us to excel in our field,so all personal thoughts should stay with our self if possible let's stay on track here in this beautiful thread now shall we?

I was thinking about how I can't stand that about some average types where it seems like you have to hold their hand along the whole way or carry them across the finish line it seems like.Sometimes it's like where's the pot of gold you SKILLFULLY concocted for me put it in my hand please and also where's my sandwich

I know why alot of folk who "make it" out ,shit on where they came from(im not saying it's right i just understand the thought process What alot of folk fail to realize is once someone is truly successful that's when you truly choose who you want to do business with and if someone wasn't a believer before when you ain't have nothing but remember you was asking them to work with and believe in you until you got the hang of it before now when you get it you the man and everyone got they hand out and it look as if they just want to reap the benefits

But this all comes back to why you have know what your dealing with is golden don't waist your time with things not worth your effort and you will be rewarded handsomely and with all the many lessons available it should always be about progress

You simply try to compromise in the face of adversity. There are times when you must compromise. There are times when you must stand your ground. It seems that you must try to gain an advantage by complimenting the person you reply to in the hope that it will make you seem like less of an idiot.

Maybe, sometimes that works.
