8. The Five Minds for the Future
"Five Minds make an Awakened Mind" - Simon Kong
As in my previous posting (6), I mentioned that my observation on fern leaves forming pentagon or hexagon shape, a natural way of creativity expression. Now there is a person who creatively proposed a new model of mind for the future. Prof. Howard Gardner created a model to explain how the human mind works. His write-up is a step closer to the nature of mind.
Prof Gardner's Five Mind Model:
see link http://www.uknow.gse.harvard.edu/teaching/TC106-607.html
Five minds are key capacities of the mind a person needed for future growth and self development:
1. The Creative Mind helps us to create new ideas and break new ground.
2. The Synthesizing Mind helps us sort out information, evaluate them and use them.
3. The Disciplined Mind helps us learn the skills of mastery a new subject well.
4. The Ethical Mind helps us strive a balance between self interest, good work and a good citizen.
5. The Respectful Mind helps us understand, tolerate and respect the values, opinion of others.
As a saying from a Chinese proverb : "All heroes shared similar views." So great minds think alike. In 2005, Daniel Pink wrote a book and he had a similar concept three years ahead of Prof Gardner's model and he championed a path of six senses of mind for the future leaders. He mentioned high touch and high concept of mind development which are essential for healthy, happy and successful life.
Howard Gardner's analysis on mind is similar to Daniel Pink but with furhter analysis it shows that they emphasised different aspect of mind for the future
Howard Gardner defines a Mind using Mulitple Intelligences:
When we practise Five minds, Six senses of mind or even Eight multiple intelligences, we will inevitably lead to an awakened mind states.
I see EEG Biofeedback Awakened Mind Coaching would add value, further enhanced and benefit everybody who wish to venture into the future of mind. - Effective and Efficient ways of managing mind development in the future.
Likewise when we acquire awakened mind states we will be able to access to mulitple intelligences, five capacities of mind, enjoying high-touch and high-concept life style naturally,easily and effortlessly.
Embrace the change now.
