A Type Writer and Harry Potter
In my notebook, I have maybe hundreds of pages now of regular text.
But a week ago, I was watching Harry Potter. Now I’ve seen Harry Potter hundreds of times. And over time it became not so much about the story, but about the philosophical state of mind it puts me in.
Anyways, so a week ago, I was watching Harry Potter. At the end of the movie, I was contemplating and questioning my entire life.
I became sort of sad. Why isn’t my life as adventurous? magical?
And so these negative emotions made me tired. But one pattern about me is I always journal when I’m in a negative emotional state.
And one pattern I noticed in my journal sessions, is I end up starting out in this cocktail of negative emotions, and as I journal I start to see past the delusion of these negative emotions, and where I end up is in a spark of inspiration or beauty.
It’s not much, it’s just a spark.
But last week, I took that spark, and went to the Type Writer app in Life Base, and I wrote sort of poetically philosophical musings.
Almost like letters to myself, letters to the universe, or maybe a channeling of ideas from the universe through me, to show me something.
But why did I choose the Type Writer app? I needed the right medium to channel these poetically philosophical musings.
Sure, I could do it on a regular notebook page. Often I do. But sometimes I get the inspiration. The inspiration came because the opportunity was there. The more apps I start to build into Life Base, as it goes into the hundreds of potential apps, you guys will be able to go about your day, get an idea, and channel it through a medium of idea exploration using the right app in Life Base, and arrive somewhere special in an idea space, that would not have otherwise been possible on a regular page.
Different mediums allow you to enter into new idea spaces that would not have otherwise been possible. In reality, there’s deeper “combinations” happening that we’re often unaware of under the surface, and mediums are part of that network of combinations.
What emerges over time is a second brain of thousands of life-changing ideas over time, often represented in different mediums, that you can access at any time like a database for your mind, to pull out, and bring forward to your conscious mind, and act upon.
