FROM DILIP MUKERJEA

"Genius is in-born, may it never be still-born."

"Oysters, irritated by grains of sand, give birth to pearls. Brains, irritated by curiosity, give birth to ideas."

"Brainpower is the bridge to the future; it is what transports you from wishful thinking to willful doing."

"Unless you keep learning & growing, the status quo has no status."

UNDERSTANDING THE VENTURI EFFECT OF THE MIND

According to Tim Hurson, writing in his book, 'Think Better: Aa Innovator's Guide to Productive Thinking', the more ideas we have, the more ideas we will get.

The principle works much like a carburettor in an automobile engine.

Just as air flowing through a venturi tube in a carburettor creates a vacuum that pulls fuel into the combustion chamber of the engine, so too does the flow of ideas create a vacuum that is filled with other ideas.

In other words, the very process of articulating ideas create the conditions in which more ideas are generated.

Isn't it interesting?
