On the possibilities of exceptional giftedness and it's development

 Most educational systems in todays world is not formed to accommodate highly gifted individuals.

Therefor there is much to be learned about experimental ways of encouraging, supporting these individuals in ways to give them and the world the gift of their gifts.


My own observations is that guidance, education, mentorship, from a mindful from a senior mentor or parent is valuable. It is important to not put the wrong type of incentive upon the student, but rather to create the right environment for thinking, exploration, problem solving, inquire, discovery and development of skills and abilities as well has some insight into self and mental processess of self and others in the context of the world are all of importance.

There has to be an element of playfulness and encouragement of play rather than authoritative enforcement of curriculum. The acknowledgement of individual inclination and individual strength and weakness is considered. Play is a way of learning very efficiently and should be studied in details by its mechanism and implicit methods in the context of cognition and learning from a holistic and detailed mechanistic perspective, taken both in a social and neurological perspective.


Feelings matter. 

I used to want to practise my guitar in the correct lighting. This lighting was better in a specific room in my house where there was a roof windows that dampened the light and gave it a more amber soft tone.

I think it enhanced the feedback I got when practising. Enhancing the dopamine respons in the right way to in turn improve my progress.

However this was not a constant thing.

Emotional states change over time as the day progressed.

There were different types of environmental situations that I gravitated to and searched for that felt congruent to what learning activity I wanted to have the right set and setting for.

These followed some pattern in sync with the circadian clock and time of day.

Likely these things are important to consider in any context where we want to achieve improvement of skills and abilities or performance of any kind.

These are likely missed and not considered with any depth or detail, and should be considered a missed opportunity in the quest for excellence and innovation.

Glutathione

Constant change and the perception of exploration

  I find that my life is an explorative adventure. I explore not just the external world. But the internal world. I explore the platonic world that could be seen to be outside of both this external and internal world. The platonic world is independent of the internal world. I feel, I should define the building blocks of this thinking out loud monologue to make things less ambiguous. Defining the internal world as the perceived world or mental world. This is more complicated than it may sound.   It is not independent of the external world. The external world being defined as a physical world that exists independent of perception. To some degree this is a philosophical discussion where there is degrees of arbitrarity or bias in the way we reason about this. Us reasoning about is involves cognition and mental processes such as awareness and neurophysiological interaction of the physical external world as input. There are further questions that needs to be considered. Where does t...

Creatine supplementions effect on sleep and brain health

There have been a limited number of studies investigating the effects of creatine supplementation on brain function and sleep, and even fewer studies specifically examining the timing of creatine supplementation with respect to these outcomes. One study published in 2018 investigated the effects of creatine supplementation on sleep quality in healthy young men. Participants received either a placebo or creatine supplements (20 grams per day) for 7 days, and were instructed to take the supplements either in the morning or in the evening. The study found that creatine supplementation did not significantly affect sleep quality, and there were no differences in sleep quality between the morning and evening supplement groups. Another study published in 2020 investigated the effects of creatine supplementation on cognitive function in healthy older adults. Participants received either a placebo or creatine supplements (5 grams per day) for 24 weeks, and were instructed to take the supplement...
