An answer, in part, to my previous post has formulated itself in my mind.
Would you perhaps agree that the way to truly increase a person's intelligence is to engage in a "cognition experiment" which is akin to image streaming? More specifically, I am referring to the idea of learning and using new words that describe feelings or sensations. Through this method we must become cognizant of matter (physical or virtual, such as thoughts). We then can place a stronger meaning to it and expand our perceptions.
Once we have expanded our perceptions, we have "funneled" a way for other patterns to trickle down the same path to lead us to an understanding of a variety of subjects.
And thus to even go this far, we must break every idea to its core. Every word, every presupposition. The only reason we do not understand something is because we do not understand the basic definition of what is involved. In essence, everything seems to move from point A to point B. So when we cannot comprehend why D is the way it is, it is because we have not understood C, given of course we understand A and B.
Therefore, to solve any problem, may this be a mathematical equation or how to write an essay on social upheaval, we must understand the basic definitions - may that be as simple as the word "equals". We then move foreward.
One question still seems yet unanswered. Why are some people quicker to assemble information than others? Even in topics they have not had prior experience in?? Therein lies the secret to this methodology. Does anyone have an explanation to this perhaps? Can we develop this ability to recognize patterns, meanings and relationships? Is the way I explained perhaps the only way? Are people simply gifted in "picking up" the ability to puzzle together solutions or is there a way to learn this? I think an answer to this would help readers of this forum tremendously. As such, I look forward to your replies!!
