Abstract:
A "need-thought" is a source of motivation. It is the struggle with and for meaning. It is the catalyst behind action-response. Because it is based on perception, "need-thought" can be true or false, real or an illusion. Because the mind operates on a "default-position", we can be deceived by perception. And because we can be lied to, betrayed and manipulated by the 3-P Chameleons – power (control-greed), privilege (inclusion-exclusion principle) and profit (means to ends-ends for means), a "need-thought" should not command allegiance just because it exists.
"Need-thoughts" can be evaluated for soundness by the "Metaphor of Being" that is self-selected for the desired response. "Being Metaphor" proposes to helps us identify a true "need-thought" as well as a false "need-thought".
A true "need-thought" is in harmony with the Cosmogenetic Principle, and develops personal potential while a false "need-thought" raises the shadow and thwarts human potential. The strategy advocated to assist with life choices works with the Cosmogenetic Principle with its three dynamic powers of organization: autopoiesis, differentiation, and communion.
The more experienced we become in the mental rehearsal stages, with “Being Metaphor” before we follow through with the “Action-Response”, the more efficient, or “Response-Able” we become in Liquid Thinking capacities.
The more a response is controlled by an individual, the more mature and less violent, (knee-jerk reaction) the response. Modeling transfers liquid thinking capacities from adult to child. The better able to discern a true "need-thought" from a false "need-thought", the more literate the person becomes in life-choices. True literacy is developed "Being a Creative Listener". Those who fail to listen to the true "need-call" for self-validation; those whose capacity for listening is destroyed, obstructed or diminished; will respond to false "need-thoughts" by self-selecting the "Being Metaphor Shadow". In action-response this is contraindicative of the Cosmogenetic Principle -the creative dynamics of organization in the universe.
As education's Linchpin, the Teacher Strategist provides curriculum that will develop the searchlight for true "need-thoughts" through modeling and "how-to" skills-building practices. Developing water-logic skills in Liquid Thinking through "Being Metaphor" proposes to help students identify true "need-thoughts", and to change, alter or reject destructive habitual habits of the false "need-thoughts" by transforming and reorganizing personal energy.
The Theory on Human Potential and Its Shadow with its Four Phases of Being utilizes a metacognitive strategy "Being Metaphor", and it was developed with this new perceptual restructuring of education for the years 2000. If the procedural strategies proposed prove to be useful and simple to master, then such a mandate for education can become a reality in the classrooms. Today's Teacher Strategist is a "needs diagnostician and a curriculum designer" who works to overturn the thwarting of potential of the "Being Metaphor Shadow" by nurturing a healthy acceptance of the uniqueness of personal potential through the learner's self-selection of the "Metaphor of Being" for the organization and regeneration of personal energy.
To compartmentalize
organize
To make manageable
label
To help us feel less of loss
in control of...
When what's where and why
and who did how
Security is itself
reward.
Constancy of motion
Makes thought liquid ration
For the fulfilment of the crystallization:
Lifetime vocations carving a route.
Left-Brain leading the troops
Compels thought to focus
Zero in on the crucial moments
To stay stuck.
... the trump stump sticks to the track.
The struggle in living
Breaks into the system
Cracking this constancy.
Certainty fixtures
Fall into risk "being flux".
The tug and pull interplay
Like the churning magnetic
Atmospheric currents
Generates the sustaining force:
The push behind the change reflex?
...being booted out of the nest.
