BOOKS!

I read a lot of books and I have these ideas in the books that I want to highlight and turn into eternal wisdom for myself and maybe others. I'm not sure how to get these ideas out of the books and into my conscious memory if I don't take notes. It's like these amazing ideas are stuck inside the books and I am trying to save them and rescue them. t the same time many of these ideas and phrases are "eternal wisdom" and therefore can be considered ready to plagiarize for my own books. I just don't have a framework for my own ideas that is worth augmenting anymore like I did with the Unamerican lines. I'm very frustrated that I am reading all of these books and don't yet have a way to turn that wisdom permanent so as to actually gain the achievements that such new truth code would imply.

I have no girlfriend. I have no revenue stream. I have no home of my own. I am totally on the side of the road in life. Everything I ever worked on for twenty years has whipped away into the wind. This is a very zen state of mind and in this zen state of mind I can read books with beginners' mind and that's the advantage.

Don't you wish you could write a hit book and have all of these money issues disappear? Even though my ethos remains, I am bored of it, and I need to make sure that I can get interested in it.

Why do you like to post things up?

  • You get some feeling of communion.
  • You get a thrill of thought permanence - a taste of immortality.
  • You get a reward of having achieved something.
  • We love to bond with others through electronic media because we think it's futuristic and it certainly is convenient.
  • We love to affect other people, both friends and strangers, both individuals and social systems.

Thought Resonance

Over time you come up with more ideas and you never forget that you've got a space about that. You come up with more and different ideas during your "second session" and future ones. Then you can turn your brainstorms public and you've got others adding ideas to yours.

Create a space for it next time.

WISH Processing

This is totally a new kind of word processor. I'd rather create a WISH and know it's going to be there for me into the future because it's up in the cloud. Let's imagine what life would have been like if I had been using a WISH processor. You can list the differences for yourselves...

You end up keeping track.

We have multiple WISHes in life and you wind up keeping track of your progress towards each of them. It's really cool...

Turning inspiration into relationships

A system for EVERYBODY...

...because EVERYBODY has a WISH.

We need a way to express and share our WISH because we are all wired exactly the same with respect to NEED. We may have different needs. We still pursue them with the same intensity, and feel them deeply in our bodies and souls.

Ability to create web content fast.

I can post more ideas faster on this platform to the Internet where others can actually see them. You can create like ten metanotes in the same time that it takes you to create like one good tumblr post. We don't have any 140 character limit either.

Wishes turn into reality over time with the METANOTES brainstorming system, because you get closer every session.
