2-Dimensional Thinking is for a Bygone Era: The 20th Century

▼Intro to Multi-Dimensional Living & Associative Skills▼

TO SURVIVE THIS CENTURY: ORGANIZE, INTELLIGENTLY MANAGE & STRUCTURE INFORMATION

A 2010 Newsweek cover attracted attention to a Creativity Crisis in America. Problem is

here in China, both physical & digital noise (hence the above), over-simplification, ram-

pant contempt for evidence, gushing speculation and a lack of basic associative skills use

-ful for real world problem-solving, has left many open to an inferiority complex of their

own making. Nothing beats hands-on experience & problem solving. Yet when many are

willfully drowning in information overload and a relentless dumbing down of their own

making largely because of an always-on/must react addiction—all the while confined

to insular web experiences (unawares) vis-à-vis E. Zuckerman in this blog, it helps

to understand what two-dimensional thinking, within the meaning of this blog,

is. T.B. Rickert writes: “Two-dimensional thinking [is] to not look beyond the

moment, to understand only the moment but not the cause and effect. Two-

dimensional thinking will get you by, thinking beyond will get you ahead”.

If positive open-mindedness, which I'd describe as the practice of thin

-king & functioning in multitiple dimensions, offer more judicious, re-

warding, intelligent & peaceful enrichment of both self & the world,

what then are dimensions and three dimensions? Harvard theoreti-

cal physicist Lisa Randall explains: “There're a number of ways

to think about what dimensions are...three dimensions are...

you can say are left, right; forward, backward; up, down...

you think about it...there're three dimensions of space.”

This isn't something that is confined to Particle Physics

alone. Two-dimensional thinking (seeing everything

in absolutes, either/or & categories), is sympto-

matic of self-destructive creativity crisis. There

are many netizens these days, who don't know

as Trillennium boldly states, that “Over-sim-

plification is now the enemy! The old ada

-ges of divide and conquer (functionally

decompose & hierarchically delegate)

& "KISS" (Keep It Simple Stupid) only

worked in a much slower paced,

simpler, smaller world. Today

you need the power of Multi

-Dimensional Thinking”. Or

else, you feel frustrated,

intimidated, unsettled,

annoyed & turned off

by experiences and

complexities pre

-sented by those

at peace both

with multi-di

mensional &

purpose-dri

ven living
