My starting point as a child

When I was maybe two weeks old, my parents took me to forest,, to see the trees. And when I was maybe one month old they took me to a symphony concert. So I learned at an early age that in life one needs to be able to conceive complex structures.
But my observational abilities must have been not so good to begin with, since when I was 2 or 3 years old, I had a wooden toy with pieces of different shapes that fit into holes of the same shape in a wooden box. I remember thinking that it was quite difficult because the wide cross and the star looked almost exactly the same and likewise a half circle and a circle looked almost the same. One never could know which of them fitted to a hole of the same shape since I needed to turn them and turn them until finally they fitted in. Somehow I find it like an elementary version of finding solutions to a problem in thinking, see my thinking course for that!
In school I was longing for more profound views and philosophy of life, moral etc.

About my new ideas

What there are new ideas in my thoughts, seem to be mostlly interpretations from one perspective to another, easpcially from feelings to mechanical language and from moral to cool calculations. These skills are a result of using one single pictrure of each thing and of the whole world in my thinking, so each side of things is seen in relation to the other perspectives every time that either one is used. This is a habit and skill that I had already as a child. Propably it is born out of the emphazis on holistic rationality in my upbringing and of how I was talked about the differencies of people's views: "Propably they both (in a discussion/debate) are right in their views but they notice different things because they have different skills. The thing of course is the same but they notice different things about it. A wise one would notice all those things and more about it."

For You

I have made about a thousand (mainly soundless text) videos at http://www.youtube.com/khtervola . Most of them contain advices of some sort.
Then there is my book at http://www.angelfire.com/planet/paradisewins/2013paradise.rtf .
And these over 30 blogs of mine.
Many of these are new perspectives and new ideas, new solutions to important problems. They are of no use unless others, very many others, grap them in connection with their work and favourite hobbies and make them more widely known. These are just ideas. Those who get famous for something are those who speak about it in their work. That is a whole lifetime's work.

Generally these thoughts have taken me a couple of seconds or less time to think about. Still, they are my best guess of what a solution to that question is like, so spending any more time pondering does not bring any new insight. Typically it takes me from 15 to 30 minutes to write them down, that is 30 times 15 or 30 = 450-900 times as long as thinking took.
Academical work is thought of as thinking work. If someone would like me to work in some of these subjects, that would even in one week (working 8 to 4 five days a week) bring 100 times time spend without any new results. In one year it would be 5 000 times, in ten yearns 50 000 times and in 25 years over 100 000 times the 450-900 times time spent in working compared to what the subject needs for thorough good work. That is about 50 million times the time that makes sense from the practical point of view. That is far too much!
So if you find yourself suited to work with some of these subjects, please take it to yourself, since I am not fitted to any academical work!
This is like 1 cm compared to 500 km! I much prefer the 1 cm of effort. Thanks... Anyway, it is the same amount of work done, just a different amount of labour invested.

There is a like difference in emotional intelligence: a life situation that takes me a second or two to adapt to, would require the average Finnish man a half a year. That is a difference of 1 : 10 000 000 or so.

About my ways of thinking

* Every time that I meet an importtant question of the wide world that needs to be solved (like the need for better life of school pupils) and that I cannot solve, I mark up in my mind that is left unsolved and should be solved, what is my best quess about what I need to develop to be able to solve it, and make a very rough scetch of how much I would need time for that and how it would be possible. So since I do not give up and do not accept too low quality solutions, I develop better as the time passes. After 10, 20 30, 40 years of practise I maybe can solve what seemed impossible to begin with.

* I use a single picture in all my thinking. It is a picture of the whole world and formed from experiences and maps plus what else I have managed to learn. See Link for learning it. So when I meet some single perspective, I at the same time learn to see it also from other points of view since they are all in the same picture, like the same thing seen from different directions. This is no complex thing but a very simple trick, please see the link for that.

* Since I am not interested in thinking but in the usefulness of thinking, I concentrate on the essential and do not like to waste time pondering. So I manage to get bigger things done with less time used in thinking.

* Feelings, new things and other vague sounding things I mark up in the same picture of the whole world, and so across time I learn more about them aqnd their relationship to the rest of the world, and so they become concretical information which I can well understand.

* In my picture of the whole I let things keep their own atmosphere, so I know at once their sources and degree of trustworthiness. Like here is some thing and what someone has told me about it: two markings on top of each other but clearly separate because of having a different atmosphere.

* Often when I meet someone who has a skill that I admire, I try to learn their skills without giving up my own or my personality except for greater wisdom of life and what the changing of life situation and typical things to do brings. That goes easiest by copying the concentration to different sides of life: like seeing, hearing, moving, different types of sociality, emotional life, memory etc., that the skill is based on - but no more copying except what a social character brings.

* I have always noticed that trees are more complex than houses and other build things in our living environment. So I have noticed that looking at trees and comparing thoughts to trees brings superior intelligence compared to comparing to houses and looking at build things.

Open-minded practise brings great skill

My main goal in life has all my life been to live a happy fulfilling life. One side of that is to have a world that is good to live in. So one little thread among all my personal endeavours has always been to not to ruin the living conditions in the world at large and to do my little share of making the world a better place to live in. In practise that has meant for me to alongside my other life endeavours to build a picture of the whole world so as to see what my deeds affect in the world at large, and to live a happy life with healthy mind and spirit, with healthy natural ages old ways of living as far as I can arrange in this modern world, so as to lead my social environment and the society on my part to ways of living that are good for living a good life now and in the future.
Building a good picture of the world needs an ok thinking ability. So since I like all the other kids needed to go to school, I took building these to be one of the tasks that school could help me to do. Since I had academical parents, that together with school brought me enermous amounts of thinking practise in school like things. Personally I valued the school dropouts most, so I took to my heart to value wisdom of life and not to let questions go unanswered if school did not manage to find them any answers. My likings supported sports, arts and handiworks and true friendship.
Later on I studied in the university and copied from there the inclination to value intelligence and the goal of developing in intelligence. But I did not value the university. Instead I valued New Age, physical work, sports, greatly arts, religions, women's wisdom and feminism, some philosophers and intellectually demanding good quality books, animals, natural communication, free time, the nature, friendship, global responsibility, wisodm of life etc. I took these also as things which bring greater wisdom than university studies. Only after I quit my studies in teh university and was submerger in all these kinds of things, I started to develop in intelligence. I noticed that I could find answers to many questions that most university students could not. Communicational skills became of major importance, so also teaching skills in teaching intelligence and completely new ideas and new ways of looking at things, also teaching talents.
Later on I started writing, at first that was a continuation of my university conversations in environmental issues and later on I just tried what I could maybe solve on my own if I was allowed to use my own point of view which brought many answers to questions where the university professions were stuck. So at first I wrote down some answers, then more, mostly about the rational selfishness-based grounds for good moral. So I wrote my first booklet "Power Politics Brings Excellent Moral". Since I had managed to write my thoughts down, I tried writing down also the more unusual rational views that women's culture has, I thought that my university background was a good ground for that, so I wrote a book about the hard rationality of following feelings fully in the light o9f the theory of evolution. Later on I wrote about the beautiful picture of the world that these pieces of understanding lead to: my paradise theory. Good is a valuable asset in the tough world. If only people all over the world could understand it...
Having written down these academical style of things, I was left with a liking towards philosophy of life and animal kind of intelligence. So I started writing down advices which support more natural more fficient ways to think and develop in skills. This produced my hundreds of soundless text videos about developing in intelligence and in skills at http://www.youtube.com/khtervola .
Having written about developing in skills, I wanted to learn something myself, something that I would like and which would let me enjoy the benefits that a greater skills could bring and which would for the first time in my life let me do something relying in my own skills and not just in university lessons. I started training my dogs, to see if I could show how intelligent animals are, so that humans could believe that they had a lot to learn from animals and that those were also lessons well suited to living in the modern world with it's cities, schooling etc. Having taught my dogs, I wanted to teach myself something too, and so I enjoyed greatly learning about arts: painting, composing and singing and learning about dance.
As I have in the past decades learned a lot about thinking, I have risen to meet ever more criterions about true objectivity, worth and profoundity and usefulness. I have come to value observational skills that can be taught by sports, physical work, love for the nature, sensitivity to animal communication, sincerety, religion, arts, friendly social life etc. And in thgought I am interested in that they could successfully solve major unanswered problems of the world (This is often achieved by using new perspectives which bring new answers.), do this in healthy ways that are good to use in the long run and easy to adopt - which brings the fascination of music to be a model of a good solution: I hear it, so I at once learn it and begin to use it and it makes my life, happiness, social relationships, the world at large and all kinds of endeavour run smoothly, well, enjoyable, withoput any problems, quickly and well, all things work out and that is just born from hearing some little piece of music, seen a short piece of film or a poem! Yes, nowadays I think that a good thought has the form of art!!!
