How to get into Second Life without really trying

Selby Evans is Thinkerer Melville in Second Life

Cues turn on your brain modules.  Advertisers know that.  That’s how they sell things to you.  You can use the same tricks. 

Use the cues or the cues will use you.

Cues that sparkle a bit get the attention of your brain modules.  Maybe somebody notices that you are in a bad mood and tries to spark you out of it.  A saying.

 It’s always darkest before the dawn.

Or a bit of humor.

It’s always darkest before it turns absolutely black.

A mention of one of your strong points.

You have the patience of Job.

A mention of a role model.

As Spock would say...

Encouragement when you doubt yourself.

Success comes in cans, failure in can'ts.

A reminder when you lose track of the goal.

Keep your eye on the prize.

Perspective when you get something wrong.

If you can't make a mistake, you can't make anything.

A way to turn a problem into a challenge.

If you get a lemon, make lemonade.

It is good that people provide you with sparkling cues.  It would be better if you could provide your own cues.  Not just to change your mood, but to bring out new ideas, open new perspectives, change the focus of your brain, or remind you of what you of what you once intended to do.

Two kinds of people:  Those things happen to. 
Those that make things happen.

We’ve collected some cues that may speak to you.  But we have not cornered the market on speaking tips.  So gather your own set of cues  It may come in handy.

In case of Doer’s Block.

 

 

 

Market to your brain
Everybody else does it.  Why not you?

 

 

Subliminal perception.  Parts of your brain will sometimes make ideas that don't get your attention.   A little help from something you see may give an idea enough spark to get noticed.
