[Ailist] Re: Today (May 31, 2009) is the 8th annual What You Think upon Grows

[Howard Ditkoff]

AI and many other fields promote this concept that "What You Think Upon Grows." Yet aren't many things growing precisely due to our lack of thinking about them? We don't think about genocide going on in Sudan and so allow it to grow, for example. I think these one-sided cliches are dangerous. You can get unhealthy results by overfocusing OR underfocusing on things. 

Best,
Howard
