“In fact, it is correct to say that listening to the mind, in general, pulls us out of a flow state. Thought, while sometimes useful, is often a primary means of dissociating from the world of the five senses and of our emotions (which are a subset of sensations). If we don’t like what we’re feeling or experiencing we move away from our experience and into our thoughts.”
“Your brain is wired to minimize the time it takes you to decode an image and react to it. To accomplish this, your brain simplifies and interprets the visual information your eyes transmit as you look at the endlessly changing world in front of you. Advertising capitalizes on this primal instinct. But learning how to think with visual information (not just react to it) requires a different way of seeing, one that enables you to pause the instinctual labeling and stereotyping of the visual images you’re processing and see the individual elements in the image.”
“Man, sometimes it takes you a long time to sound like yourself.”
―Miles Davis
