What Sizze Gauge Would A Safety Pen Be?

Metagedacht today? The great constant

A book about PQ moves slowly, slowly closer. A collection of material is started. A central theme will be laid. I find this course to the basic question to which thinking is it because actually in PQ.

it comes to "normal" thinking? Hm .. What does that mean? When we think? If we do not keep? Is thus a book that will motivate thinking not superfluous? Wikipedia defined very broadly so "In thinking all the operations are merged, the interior of an active engagement with ideas , memories and . terms a knowledge to form search " There is basically no escape, everyone thinks constantly, constantly

And that's a good thing, however, suggests PQ... It comes down to how (!) you might think. that this is possible in different ways, press yes, "think" is already a common linguistic nuances like, "think" to "rethink", "think ahead" "think" or off. But I think the can something be highlighted. Just an attitude and even some techniques as well as principles. Because "reflection" is not equal to "reflect".

that extent it is in PQ is not about problem-solving or puzzle-solving in particular. Heuristics or creativity techniques are not the subject of PQ.

But what then? I can think of as the term "distance" field. PQ is about a distance while thinking. PQ is of the view that thinking yielding even better results if you think about it. "Thinking about thinking's", that's PQ. In this respect, I could probably describe as PQ "Metadenken. Yes, it is probably: PQ will motivate them to metadenken. In everyday

think about you after this incident or that problem. You are preoccupied with a theme. Thinking straightens up, turns around this topic. They think for you - so you will appreciate their boss. You think ahead - so appreciate your sports team-mate them. You think about important decisions before the announcement again - that you are valued as responsible.

And when you metadenken? When you think about thinking ahead how your thinking, to reconsider expires? What habits have you on board? What techniques do you use to get closer to subjects? How to find alternatives for decisions and choose between you?

deals with these conditions thematic thought to PQ. And that is why a book seems pointless to PQ. Even if there is much literature for different varieties of thought are (eg problem solving or analytical), then Metadenken rather an issue in the bookshelves. If it is though! Then once metagedacht saves the trouble probably thinking topics.

Brazilian Waxing Rash Treatments



Why, why, why only develop a "philosophical intelligence (PQ)? The question always drives me back again. What it represents is quite clear to me - but to bring it to the point, why do it to me now, here and now so important to appear ... I catch them again and again only a corner. But today I made a step forward!

Previously it was more around the "good life". It sounds plausible and is not wrong. But something still seems to be lower to be more fundamental. And today's my thought was that PQ is a response to the current state of the world. Which is characterized by abundance, or neutral: a large number of options, and networking and the resulting complexity.

abundance are actually 50 types of bread instead of enough bread to satiation. Complexity means in practice that my buying bread has many, many stations impact on someone in India, and vice versa takes the well-being of people in faraway China influence on mine.

This state of the (western?) World today but only the current end point of a curve of constant increase in variety of options and complexity. Growth of diversity and (also resulting) complexity for me the crucial, large constant.

image

Sure, wars, natural disasters or stupidity / social disasters have always reduces diversity and complexity as well. But only temporarily or regionally limited. Overall they are about the last 5,000 years, however, only increased. Sometimes slower, sometimes faster.

This development is not expired naturally controlled. It is the sum of the efforts of countless individuals and social systems.

development - whether controlled or not - of course now requires Adaptation. Consisting in an enlargement of the freedom of individuals or even in the development of individuality. Also seems to me a historical constant - but the increase of freedom less strong, experienced repeated setbacks.

image

every form of totalitarianism, such a setback, every dogma, every ideology. For ideology is rigid - that is its essence - and works for a given increase in diversity and complexity as a corset. Ideology is inherently unfit to cope with increasing complexity. For complexity require flexible response, the acceptance of the unpredictable - ideology is always to unpredictability intended to reduce. Their rules of today are suitable tools for the complexity of Unvorhersebare by tomorrow.

ideologies and totalitarianism are always subject to illusion of control. You have to do, may be understandable. They should be enforced from time to time - as history shows - is possible. Long term, they do not prevent the increase in complexity and hence the growing need (!) For individual freedom. The higher the complexity, the lower the ability to control the complex system centrally.

As long as biological individuals strive for more diversity - and that seems, given his consistency in the core of being human to lie - they condemn themselves to more and more freedom if they do not collapse under the weight of self-inflicted complexity (!). More complexity requires more decentralization. The ultimate in decentralization is a high degree of individualization, in a free and responsible option and diversity conscious and capable individual.

with PQ in my view now help, given the complexity and diversity of our world unleugnbaren, appropriate to enable the individual to deal with it. For themselves and for others in the more or less large social systems, whose part it is. And for the longest possible time. Sustainably so.

PQ will develop me insofar as timely and necessary as long as "increasing diversity and complexity," one of the great constant agrees. Anyone who wants to increase diversity and complexity fundamentally continue the good of all, can seek help in dogmas and ideologies. Diversity, prosperity: they contradict each corset.

But dogmas and ideologies have (apparently) yesterday so still helped. If they are now recognized as not sustainable (or at least does not promote diversity) what should take its place? I mean, PQ is an attitude that helps to fill the resulting vacuum.

diversity and complexity increase. Diversity complexity and need individual free capability for dealing with them. PQ reinforces the individuality and freedom. The seems to me the starting point for the foundation of being the motivation behind the PQ.

based on the historical curve means that PQ will approach the freedom of the diversity curve curve and help the diversity curve to a freer positive and conscious development.

Why transparency?

Ina has raised some questions that a philosophical attitude, or rather, those who want to take them or think they have already taken, should be of interest. To face these questions every now and then, raises awareness of themselves and their own position in the immediate or wider (social) context. Because with all due respect, it's about philosophy, and therefore also in PQ.

What makes me, as the context of my "parts" are, of what I am and do? As I stand in relation to the world around me? What is the world, how are their "parts" together? Finally, how does my action or the action of another of these relationships, how verschöbe its composition? These are central questions of philosophy. She is the mother of the conscious distinction, and thus also the relationship of the difference.

But why now the question of accountability for my decisions and actions other ? Why the question about the transparency of my motives, the basis for accountability?

For me these questions with awareness, building upon the sense of responsibility and out again to do constructive trust.

If I myself do not have my motives in mind, am I can not account on the way to a decision and my priorities and values, then there is a good deal of my personality, "under the surface." It is even I can not 'predictable and reliable. Then I can always surprise only back itself - whether it is always positive surprises but I doubt it. Surprise is just a short distance from unpredictability. And that is bad for everyone (social) context. No one likes to live in an unpredictable nature, we are constantly trying to tame nature and foreseeability of her drive out the unwelcome surprises. Nor may it be with unpredictable people together. (The fact that in the end despite all the effort but then not everything is predictable or can be made and how it helps living in the PQ should be subject of another article.)

why It is important not only that I myself can understand my choices, but also give another insight, that make me transparent and this transparency before even aspiring to me. The first is to track down the reasons - what does that mean at this point, they change in their weight. It is just about her collection. More does not want transparency. I know what moves me the forces that act in me?

In the second step is then a matter of determining the relationships between these forces. Strung together they form an inner causal chain, so to speak. Only when that is threaded, then I can say that I am aware of a decision. Only I can stand her and take responsibility.

trust in others can now take me all the more, the clearer I decide for you / handle. Get to know me is not just to see the results of my decisions / actions simply, but also the way there. Where can I give such an insight into me, as occurs nearby. And where near arises because trust can flourish.

Who understands why something is happening, what is the causal chain behind it, where it is easier, of what is to close on the future. Openness, transparency, accountability now reduces complexity tomorrow. Because trust is a means of Reduction of complexity. Where can I trust, I must observe that is just not always all the details and check. Familiar as I can "black box" look, that hide its complex inner workings.

So PQ leads indirectly to the promotion of trust to a reduction of complexity, although it first may appear different. If I made a philosophical stance, me and my motives of the links will deliberately to take responsibility. When are for me and other decision-making and chains of action on that basis to understand. Then I can rely on me, then others can rely on me. And then ... then the banners, the Verifiable it were packaged in a box and at first are discarded. Then no further testing or continuous vigilance is necessary. This saves power.

PQ does not mean intellectual hypertrophy in the form of deliberate non-stop questioning. PQ is rather to be able to give account to make transparent, establish accountability for each retrievable ability to realize when needed. But this ability does not need to constantly applied to everything. On the contrary, your aim is to remain possible in the background. Even thought or consciousness is not a goal in itself but a step on the path to a destination. Is this achieved - such as trust in me and others - may I direct my steps again somewhere else.

questions to PQ

To be clear about their own behavior to get themselves to a philosophical attitude "check" out, it is necessary not only things but also himself to be questioned and.

- How to understand my actions / my decision to others?
- How do I clear out my motives?
- my behavior based on which, what or where, what should be?
- How do I deal with temporary and opacity to around me?
- What are the consequences I expect and how I will handle it?
- What goals, what expectations I have of my actions?

The list must be completed individually, of course ...

Properly Put Adult Diaper

sense needs a counterpart

Ina has written "meaningfulness arises whenever we feel that we meet ourselves, where we are" - that sounds good. Self-correlation, Kongurenz, authenticity certainly are in principle desirable.

However I am missing in the description of purpose, that is the sense of meaning in life, something. And that's that or the other, a general age where we are ego.

Fullness of meaning we can not create on our own all alone. As the ego, we feel fullness of meaning only where we are for an old. Meaning in life comes only in giving and giving need a receiver. Without surrender, without aim and purpose of the gift does not make sense. The more immediate result

then for our ego sense fullness, more personal relationship with the old. The direct feedback is given to us that our gift will be gratefully accepted, the clearer we feel appreciated us, the more sense we feel.

is surprising here now, how different gifts and recipients can and still produce in us a sense of meaningfulness. Receiver can be individual people or animals, but groups or masses. Recipient must also face not personally, and may be anonymous and far, or perhaps are still in the future.

And our gifts need not be material. Objects, actions, words, ideas, or even mere (Da) Can be considered as a gift.

Wasimmer we choose the good for an old, wieimmer we turn deliberately to a person in the hope that our gift will be accepted favorably, as a gift for him would be recognized by us is meaningful.

However, we feel the sense only if we wieimmer some sort of feedback from the receiver to get to get us through and in our administration also sees.

Whether this feedback in the form of a smile or a rain shower after a long drought comes, whether what we perceive as feedback is really us or we can just imagine ... all this does not matter. We need only give the impression of causality have to feel and sense.

needs meaning, therefore, correlation between us and others, someone or something. Fullness of meaning is thus not a condition, but rather the color of a process. And this process must take place probably more aware of ever changing our opponent.

Or vice versa: as processes always make trouble, it is probably so that the desire for a continued meaningful state is greater, the changing is our opponent. Then, the search for recipients of our gifts, which are reasonably constant.

pause and prudence

In Ralf's thoughts about the "pause" and the question of how can we hope to keep in the largest daily stress, to make us not lose, I always went back to the concept of prudence, the "reflection "through the head, which may perhaps be something like the small and daily goal of a philosophical attitude. PQ brings us to his senses - and thus creates a real and serious health can be integrated in dealing with what is happening around us. This may seem like a win sound pious wish, but if we rid ourselves of the notion that the only reason to do a survey to gain control (as in our car driving example), it falls short. We create an overview of the context in which we move, not over the entire course of the world and the things - if we can extend our context, this is wonderful, but when we do not create an "ultimate knowledge", we can not fail it, or despair. The repose and reflection has to do with a very specific goal - no one but ourselves can determine when we come to their senses and leave when we want to return to the next to stop the speed loop and ask for the "meaning". This sense is therefore not to be determined content - ie: meaningful life must be from "a good job, family, a pet and at least one volunteer activity" are composed, but common sense always occurs when we feel that we meet ourselves , where we are. Then we have no claims to the outside, but hopefully interest, a curiosity and desire for dialogue -. But this is something different and has nothing to do with the control: it can be to things.
use if we ever pause and come to their senses and then to take the next step, we move this for personal development, with its value in itself and thus become an internal compass - and this benefit to only the considered treatment of the relationship that we as imperfect, isolated individuals to our world - not otherwise PQ.

What Does Mucus Taste Like

the beginning of suspension

everyone can take a philosophical attitude? Probably one of the more and others less. In one's a little faster and easier than the other slower and more arduous. This is certainly depend on where someone stands on his life and how he got there. There are certainly favor training, recruitment, socialization and mental structures, the PQ or impede indicated.

In any case PQ is an attitude and skills can be learned. No one is simply born that way so, just as human as a scientist or a priest to be born. Rather, one makes them. A philosophical attitude is a choice, not fate, as well as scientific rigor and deep faith destiny. (At least from the point of view, PQ, a creditor may view that differently.)

PQ can be learned. But where to start? For me PQ begins with what is commonly just linked, not to learning: the pause. Anyone who learns something, when they want to do something, and not do anything. But PQ is different. At the beginning of PQ is the pause, even stopping.

only in a "hold state" we can be really aware of the fact. As long as we move and especially the faster we move, the closer is our (the tunnel) view. Awareness is exactly the opposite of tunnel vision. It is more like the panoramic view from the mountain peak on the landscape of the mind of a link.

PQ is at the end of course decisions and thus lead to action. But just it will be determined by us and not the circumstances. The more we are in a hurry, however, are moving through life have, the more we just have to react. And reaction means that we unconsciously make decisions for prefabricated patterns.

us freedom self-determination, therefore, need to rest. This does not mean that we can only adopt a philosophical attitude in bed. Not for external peace and stillness is what the pause, but a mental stop. And it need not be for hours. A flash, a short deceleration, hesitation can reach.

What does this pause is clear when you imagine a racing driver. Is Michael Schumacher during a race in his Formula 1 racing cars at all times free to turn the tax at will? No! On the contrary, the tax is due to the high speed of a race car only a very small game compared to the control of normal cars.

truly open for movement in any direction is just someone who is at a balance point. At one point, then, and not on a flight path or track. Self-determined decisions are therefore only possible if the parts that will fall into one or the other direction, the moment has no preferential direction like a coin standing on its edge.

pause is our mind to its peak in balance, making it only possible outcome that we look at the world. Only in the pause, we can also withdraw from the world and perceive it consciously. People who live in cars, even in view of the world - but with tunnel vision forward.

pause as a break on the top seat in a corn maze to win peace in an overview.

people who want to take a philosophical attitude and practice are, therefore, first of all to get to the problem, to pause. How do you manage everyday stress momentarily stop to get your mind in balance and awareness to look at the situation - and then continue with self-determined?

I think it needs to first raise awareness about the fact that exactly is required for PQ. You must always remember it and therefore awareness of decision-making situations. We need to establish an automatic perceive you stop the stream of events at key (sic) points again and again and hints that it's about your self-determination.

how to progress to such an automatic? I think this will require recurring reflection. Always look back on your daily life and think about the situations in which you had to stop. They create a model of these situations. Sensitize your feeling for them with value-free review.

Or be reflected through other people. Ask friends and partners, to remind you to pause. Others often have a better sense than we do for our opportunity to pause. They not sitting in our cars through our everyday lives, but watch us from outside. From there you can almost wave to us and then encourage them to pause briefly.

the crucial moment to pause and to balance his mind to choose self-determined outcome. This is the beginning of the art of PQ.

PQ - property or ability?

By the image of the "driving", which was created by driving through the forest, the question arises whether "PQ" is an attitude that we either given as a talent that we can, such as a property or whether it is more of a practicing and ability to learn - something that even people accessible, where the "talent" fails to has remained ...

somewhat different: There are people who behave automatically in the sense of a "PQ", without knowing that they do, it needs to more of an impetus outside and there are people who are not in a position to to find such an attitude login?

latter can be answered in the negative, I think, although there are certainly different levels of resistance to a self-determined action and thought, and there are people who do not know out of sheer fear and habit, how and where to start, they must - then the question arises whether it is only through extreme situations, losses, big changes, etc. again finds a way to what we mean by PQ. Which can not be created artificially, that is to create opportunities for something gentler way, not only for the idea, "PQ" report but to also open up concrete insight into what it brings with it as enrichment. How can it look? Another idea, which applies to "pursue" it, I hope we get him.

learning

The image of Ina, PQ was like driving in the forest I find interesting. It affected me for a reason of our lives and weaving: The need for constant adaptation.

Life is never static. Life is change. Our chest heaving life in breathing. Our blood flows for life through our veins. Our nerve cells conduct impulses for life. And from the outside press always, always, always an impression on us, which we must take a position. Time by an unconscious gesture to scare a flying ... But often also through conscious decisions.

The result of any conscious and unconscious appeal, any decision must be some action. Hand movement, jumping, reply, thought. Even inaction is an action within the meaning of the result of a decision.

Every action has a turn on our environment and changes them. You shall have to face us again and calls us to submit comments. So they give us feedback on our actions.

This is not to avoid anything. We, our physical and spiritual structure are inevitable with the overall structure of our environment coupled. Your changes we are changing our changes, they change. It is a lifelong, very intimate dance. And we can not escape him.

However, this dance can end at any time - through our death. Die means with respect to this coupling of the changes that we were not able to change us so as to adapt to changes in the environment would.

That sounds odd at first certainly, but that's only on the abstractness of my formulation. We are accustomed to use the term "change" too concrete. I change when I stop smoking or get gray hair. But change is always and everywhere. Not on such a macroscopic level. It is the same in each institution, in each cell. Constantly.

That's what makes the miracle of our life. That we are the myriad large and small changes in the environment (and in ourselves) long but at least 60, 80 or even 100 years "hug" so that we are so "elastic" are that they do not throw us off track. Without a homunculus in our head, without a central, all-directing and supervising authority.

life is to remain supple, changes follow elastic plasticity. However, we are physically or mentally rigid ... then we lose the ability to adapt. Old bones are brittle

, old stiff joints, old brains "calcified." Ages, ie closer to death, is in fact always been accompanied throughout with images of loss of suppleness.

are Conversely, agility, resilience, soft skin of youth, and therefore for greater adaptability. Adaptability but does nothing more than learning ability. Modified structures are nothing but "memories" of changing influences. One foot in the sand leaving a trace, but the structure of the sand has changed by an "impression". Even if the foot is gone for a long time, we still see the "memory" of him.

same kind of impressions are the hot stove, which we sum up the first kiss, the first disappointment, success in school, the failure of a project. They all left their mark on us. However, these are not just memories, but physically, and / or mental structure changes that our reactions vordisponieren for future impressions. At the next hot stove I behave (hopefully) more careful at the next math test, I am confident, the next person, I'm not that open.

a philosophical attitude now is to help the process as possible for us collapsing impressions. It will help us to learn as much from them and to remain elastic. PQ wants to counter the intellectual ossification to keep us always open to learning.

learning is life.

And a car driving through a forest is also learning. In particular, if you go may blindfolded. Try But the best is not enough. If necessary, you can even run through a forest blindfolded. This is a beautiful experience.

With the car in the woods with a blindfold is only an analogy. An analogy for life. Because in life we can not actually see (w). The future for us in the dark. Just as well, everything is around us in the dark. By this I mean that we, much, if not all can not really see. We can not see the other people really, really, but only a more or less flattened image of him. The same holds true for business, animals, world events, etc., etc. There is even a matter of principle and on the fundamental level of perception. We can not recognize the reality. Nevertheless, we must move

us in it and prove. How can this be? By what our senses, whatever the reality mediate inwardly to an image (model) process from reality and make decisions because of this image, as we change how we act.

We are condemned to check the fit of our picture of the world tirelessly on her. A storm impression on us, we make judgments based on our previous image of the world, we decide to act according to the decisions ... and then see what happens. Only when we feedback get our act in the world, we can say something about the fit of our image of her.

On the analogy transferred by car, this means that whenever we entlangschrubben on a tree, we have received very valuable feedback. Then we know that is where there is a tree. The only way we know something about driving the forest through which we. Once

On the other side of the forest you can describe the forest only insofar as you are pushed against trees. You can not say anything about the forest as a whole. All they know is there something about his character, where you ... failed.

failure thus belongs to life. Failure is very, very valuable feedback. Errors give us invaluable clues as to where we should adjust our view of the world, because it has given us "to run against the error," yes.

This does not mean that we should provoke errors. Of course, a car collision with a tree without the target. When our eyes in the very principle of life but connected to our environment, then we can not avoid mistakes.

This is one of the main theses of philosophical attitude. PQ makes open to error and shall endeavor to maintain the suppleness to be able to learn from them. Changes are part of life, mental states, the changes in the way, are so hostile.

to embrace change, rather than fear them, the PQ is. Accepting the inevitability of mistakes and turn them into something positive, is the PQ.

Carefree Pads And Rash

PQ PQ is like driving

was the thought of stepping back, I very impressive, Ralf and I think the discovery of one's own standards is building almost a little bit out on - Only from the perspective that arises when I three steps behind the familiar and taken for granted back to do, is the one from which I may know something about me. Salman Rushdie has once said but so beautiful that you just only the whole can see the picture, if you fall out of line - and that's just so exciting: in the truest sense of the word you fall out of line, if one adopts this perspective. That attitude - that describes what it's PQ is also - is something special, they are not often found, and if so, is there are very strange reactions to it: from "the thing is not done" to "brilliant" is all there and from these reactions can usually say more about their representatives, as to the content, leading to these reactions. Why is a philosophical attitude that unusual or is it only unusual in the sense of uncomfortable? I am convinced - just like you Ralf - that in the implementation of PQ experienced the joy goes, a joy that kindled the fact that life is what it is and in this life completely different things on the occasion of their joy for what we are looking for "fun" (often, unfortunately, the little brother of the hollow my pleasure) to have to put in our lives. What constitutes the acceptance of the world or life is not the passive stepping back into the inner life, but the confidence and respect for what I find in this life. I am able, with all the work, to make it possible to develop myself and to change off the ground, but that has always something to do with the fact that the world continues to donate the materials for it and it deserves recognition. Real joy has always something to do with "touch", and when we mentioned in the receding not only pause, but we remove from the world, then we lose the opportunity to experience this joy. It's about a movement that oscillates between the inner and outer, and both the ratio is steadily. This ability has given us, in essence, my children, they often dominate naturally, but in light of what we in the course of time together in our lives to tasks they have a resistant "to be practiced - by a bit like driving a car the forest, even if it sometimes looks as if we would do no more than the control in both hands to hold, we must make it very carefully to ensure that the car remains at the pace on the road, where we want it ...

question standards to judge

The desire for freedom and self-determination has its price: It costs the effort, the difference in the world who oppose us to constantly evaluate, and share that to us in terms. We must give them a meaning, because they naturally do not own.

What does it mean for me if it rains? Is it a burden, because I must keep an umbrella, although I'm already festooned with shopping bags? Or is it a pleasure, because I loved my romantic under one umbrella Sitting look at the Alster?

What do the sounds of children from the apartment next door to me? They disturb my well-earned rest after a busy day? Or they are soothing to me evidence that it is about Germany's future but not yet ordered that bad?

rain drought, noise: silence - these are just differences in humidity and air movement environment. Nothing more. Only through the perception of a certain moisture level or sound pressure, first by us as observers, they have a value in which we be-worth-en. The most

happens automatically and unconsciously ... but that may just happen consciously. And it should and must always then pass consciously, if we want to be free and open. For if we evaluate unconsciously and automatically place consciously and deliberately, then comes up is whether we ourselves are to assess because, that is, whether we look at the rating scale have been - or whether we have adopted a foreign rating scale, and so far only "cud" pre-judgments.

If we begin to explore the world as children and young people, we certainly do well to take on assessment standards of our environment first. We can make it from the condensed experience of our fellow human beings and ancestors. You can spare us some unpleasant experience. Automating assessments and adhere to the back free for more important things.

unconsciousness and automatisms are so obviously important in life. Even if we are condemned to judgments for us to decide, but can the "damn judgments" cease once, right? A world in which we always want to judge everything and just be aware in order not to leave any gap, beginning to slip through the lack of freedom might be, even unbearable. Neither for us nor for others. And they would not be feasible, because all decisions would run due to the pressure to consciousness much more slowly.

do For all the love for awareness and PQ we say on the other side well to Rate conscious not to overdo it. Here as elsewhere in life, it depends on the right measure.

However: the automation of assessments we should be already aware of. Not necessarily at the time of evaluation, for as the unconsciousness is so both in terms of the assessment as well as the observation of the evaluation, so to speak, the meta-evaluation, intended.

In times of peace we do then, however, well to reflect on our automatic ratings. Then we should think about it after.

If we go through a pedestrian area and hold out to us begging hands, we generally choose Automatically, something into it down or not. And that's totally ok. For while their shopping trip to evaluate every beggar must always remember this, the goal is not to be a philosophical attitude. Then it would really quick assessment of the freedom to be a blast judging the load, we would want to avoid.

While we will however take a break while shopping or at home or perhaps not until later in the holiday ... because we should be able to reflect on our subconscious decision. The seller of a homeless newspaper or donate clothes in the post box like us to the beggar-lined shopping and our unconscious judgments . Remember And then (!) We should be willing and able to consciously consider our standards of value behind our decisions to reconsider, revise, if necessary, and finally to accept as our own.

PQ can be so far may be regarded as intellectual rumination: If a deer is startled when grazing, then it sets the pleasurable chewing and escaping automatically. Only when it has found peace, it begins with the chewing of what it had taken before the flight itself. During the flight there was no time for it.

is similar to the awareness of our assessments. You need some rest to their subject from all sides to consider and finally, after considering the influence of the observed scales assign a value. In the hustle and bustle of everyday life but do not always have time, so many judgments first (!) Must be made automatically.

Maybe I should clarify why PQ so: Only conscious choices can be free and serve to self-determination. These conscious decisions must not be made necessary in the moment of observation - the rain falls, children's noises on the next room - can be prepared in advance but rest in more fundamental ways. More important than the conscious decision regarding an observation is therefore the conscious Choosing a scale that can then be applied at the time of observation quite automatically.

How far then measure and monitor decision decision apart, this can be very different. Maybe days, weeks, years, perhaps only seconds or minutes.

is important is the fundamental openness to reconsider standards even aware of and adapt. Think about this then most of all be an after-thought, because it is always first a scale from one (automatic) decision there. The sooner we may have been aware - or he is from deeper, unconscious automatisms created or we have taken him unconscious. When it comes

PQ so more of a thinking pre-and post-thinking than just about thinking. A Philsophische position distances itself from the ever-changing moment and looks at life in the overview that ranges from yesterday to tomorrow, as a whole.

Metal Sonic Screwdriver 10th Doctor

Damn

We're all day and always in a barrage, a barrage of differences. Because only differences we can perceive. It starts at the physical level using electromagnetic vibrations or sound waves, without the difference between high and low amplitude oscillations not. This continues on a biological level, in the exercise that works only on nerves their messages are frequency modulated, ie, differences in distance between their amplitudes. And that leads to the infinite variety of building upon impressions and thoughts, each of which are never without its opposite.

Whether the differences here rather exist in a continuum as the sound pressure, or whether they are diskrekt such as pregnancy (pregnancy is a bit does not really exist), which is not so important here. It is essential that the world consists solely of differences that, yes, we have to evaluate.

how free we feel (also a difference: free: not free!), This finding is also not immediately important. The differences There are, indeed, they almost make out the existence, if we look at it or not. More or less restrictions do not alter the amount of the differences with which we are confronted continuously.

more or less restrictions, support, frame, however, have influence on the way we deal with the differences. Rules, beliefs, corsets are in fact invariably means of evaluating differences. Whether a particular noise is loud or soft, it is clear not only by the presence or absence of ear pain, but also eg by the laws. Pregnant or not is not a question of faith, but which side of that difference to be considered as good or bad is entirely.

true: false and good: bad are the classic drawers into which we classify differences and constant rule-based. These drawers are man-made, because they point to a state value, which he naturally can not have. Nature knows no values, but only states as results of changes along causal chains. In nature and without a judgmental observer everything is just the way it is.

That is not natural that even animals do not sit down differences with respect and they judge to be desirable or to avoid, and therefore as good or bad. This assessment is not at all or not as much aware as humans.

However, once awareness when assessing in play, it changes qualitatively. Suddenly, the result is in fact not inevitable and quasi berechnenbar. Conscious assessed by definiton is rather a results open judging. At least, actually. Because the reservation again and again and does it make any difference even from just the awareness. as everyone can attest who has ever tried to deliberately tried to prevent a fall - so to speak, consciousness is the opposite of automatic.

The interesting judgments about differences are the ones that are made at the level of consciousness, or at least could be like. All others are indeed at least outside the control of spontaneous and run automatically.

are certainly aware of the judgments to be felled only a tiny portion of the total amount of all judgments in every moment. Nevertheless, or perhaps because they make us grief. For with conscious decisions we're asked, not an automated instance in us. And if we are asked, that our consciousness, then the output of the assessment is first and foremost principle open. We can always consciously decide one way or another or completely different. At least we think so, if we postulate a fundamental freedom of the will, and which I will here assume once.

the openness of our conscious decisions, we are now but certainly not (always) right. On the one does the balance of the assessed options time and effort. Especially in an ever faster moving world seems counterproductive. On the other hand, a sentence, a choice later turn out to be suboptimal with respect to the intended purpose. We opt for a washing machine - and the next day to read a leaflet advertising a special offer with 20% discount for the same model. Or we can choose for crossing a red traffic light - and a police officer overlooked the street, which places us at once to the speech.

conscious decisions involve so per se and to the threat of "how to's, it's done wrong."

Therefore, it seems to me there has been a co-evolution of consciousness and awareness corsets. Or put differently: consciousness could not emerge just like that, but had to slow to shell out for biological automation. But then it has stripped the country, but worn in the form of mental corset with it. On the possibility of false judgments, it needs to consciousness as it were used to.

That does not matter. Rather, it is quite natural. But these corsets are still opposed to the intended purpose of awareness enjoyment of freedom through self-determination. Because self-determination requires even conscience as the core.

ie: if you want to be free to determine who is would that do must also be awareness and thus also their own, quasi-manual judgments. is a joyful life of self determination, it is not without conscious evaluation of us laying under a barrage differences. And so I'm

back to PQ: A Philosophical attitude will help with the barrage to be done, without slipping into (outdated) corset. In PQ are therefore devoted to the judgments, ie decisions and values, ie standards. And so it goes also to (self-) responsibility and the constant possibility of miscarriages of justice, ie failure.

Under fire

Apart from Going to school, work, and administrative procedures, one might say, it is somehow mostly to the "good life", right? Are not we living in a leisure society, and is not leisure-time = pleasure? Does not rotate so far everything about joy-time, thus maximizing pleasure?

Yes, somehow has to do Arts course with joy. But to limit the opportunities for joy in their free time, I'd pity. Why should not I at school with joy to be there to do work on bread with joy, or a troubled officials meet with joy?

is always and everywhere the opportunity to celebrate - if we are open because of it. By robustness, we defend the hard-conquered islands of joy at home and Arts. Without openness, we forgive us but the chance to discover more of these islands. Joy is indeed up to her, by definition, contradictory situations such as those of loss and justified fear always possible. However, we feel that probably not.

I think the feeling most people get most of the time "under fire". The sparkling life force in them, their "will to pleasure" has to constantly take cover from hostile action. Imperceptibly from the mundane to reach to significant and obvious or severe.

may be imperceptibly small the annoyance of someone who has given us the door is not stopped. But also an uncertainty as to the employment relationship may look like next year, need not be obvious, but can remain latent and almost imperceptibly press the joy in everyday life.

Banal is when a warning reminding us for weeks to a low account balance. Obviously, the "bombardment" of our joy when we are compelled by a tailgaters on the highway.

And when we experience severe cuts in our lives like fire or accident, which put our planning, our sense of security to the test.

A good life does not happen just like that also. It results not only from almost entirely natural, but we have basically always do something about it. Apparently is not joy possible without that we defend ourselves against everything, or at least work hard for it. But that is not

naturally? Sort of. Life's just a vale of tears - right? So it looks like at least if you look at the faces of the commuters on buses and trains in a big city like Hamburg. There is no joy to read.

me it seems initially quite plausible that exists between robustness and openness of a permanent imbalance. To withstand the hostility of everyday life can be much in demand robustness and openness seems to be little pay off. It looks as if the Wall is the joy only thicker, stronger and more united.

But was that ever different? Was also the former perhaps better? Yes and no.

Yes, I think, earlier it was different because the world was less complex earlier. Where only two washing machines with only one dealer in range to choose from, there is no fear on from making the wrong choice, because you have researched the options and inadequate price options. A world where the ogre distant mythical beings, of which only few Slowcoach report produced only homely horror in the face of such further atrocities, but a world in which suicide bombers or other political violence perpetrators potentially anyone with extinction or mutilation threaten, who thinks only of a long-distance - and the millions each year - which affects the feeling of joy of course.

On the other hand, no sooner it was of course no different. The world was less complex, but is also offered in the smaller, more mundane domestic world plenty of chances, "bombardment" of joy to feel. Today it is a great suffering for many women to have a child - in the past it was a great sorrow to avoid a child can not. Today generates threat of unemployment or real insecurity and existential fears - in the past was often synonymous with unemployment Nahrungslosigkeit and therefore death.

was past and today and is the joy that is "under fire". Whether this attack is stronger today ... This is an open question. My feeling is that many people feel it more today. The reason: their desire for freedom and self determination.

Yes, I think, as simple as that

Who wants to live in freedom and self-determined - and the biggest majority in the Western world, I would take time - which is tantamount can not help yourself to the balancing of robustness and to take care of openness. And those who take care of themselves to something, of course, noticed what prevents him from what he makes this effort all the easier. Who

A must finish what you start. Thus, with the freedom and self determination. Who wants to enjoy it - who says so, whether to enjoy at all - who frees herself from all disabilities and ultimately, of all the supports. See

is in every child: In the beginning a child lives with joy in a sheltered world. His freedom and self-determination operate in a very narrow framework. But then the child develops more of its own. It aims beyond the frame. For example, it wants to buy more toys or clothes as his parents. So extend the framework and the parents give the child some pocket money to have it decide certain. This process then continues to own Monetary salary, the maximum self-determination (within budget) permits - but does not offer more support. In the end, everyone in the child's age and grown out of pocket money people solely responsible for his bank balance. Parents can do and should not serve as supports to Sankt indefinitely.

And so it is ultimately in all areas of life. Who wants to be less constrained to decide who would like yourself who seeks freedom from restrictions and on everything ... who must live with the consequences of self-determination and self-responsibility.

freedom means the absence of props, frames, targets. Or more precisely, simply accepted the waiver of Frame on unquestioned rules, unreflective traditions, thoughtless faith. And so I'm

back to PQ. For PQ helps to fill the gap caused by the release of rules, frames, traditions, beliefs. I mean, who wants to be truly free and thus to self-determination "convicted" of doing good is it to develop a philosophical attitude. Because it offers a way of questioning the joy to come in balancing.

Steam Heat Radiator Adjust Temperature

Stand back, please!

think I said nice of you, Ina: "PQ is a form of intelligence, which is not limited to, rational arguments to be weighed against each other [...]." Exactly why that is worth the extension the Q-list! IQ is the intelligence where is the "pure" rationality see. Not for nothing seems the IQ of a child of the time behaviourism and rationalization delusion.

the IQ intelligence is calculating, with her it's about power. But life just can not be solved by calculation. And joy is certainly not an issue of the calculation. So it is not surprising that at some point this cold calculating the mania was opposed EQ intelligence. This again was in the heat of dealing with life. The man moved back into the picture. It was no longer just about performance, so as to give people (ultimately interchangeable) factor of production, but the inner (Emotions, self-awareness) and the intermediate (social competence, empathy).

IQ as EQ - important as they are - but both seem to me now (almost necessary) restrict or, uh, self-indulgent. And that would compensate for PQ. PQ looks beyond the specific problem to be solved also with IQ. PQ puts the people and the human factor in a context. PQ is the intelligence that directs the "look beyond just the addition" to what IQ and EQ turn. PQ lifts the look of a concrete situation as a sewing in her lap and looks into the distance, the universal, to the context, the implications, ultimately, on the uncertain and (perhaps) as incomprehensible from a window.

PQ comes back again and again and freed the people from the shackles of constraints and urgency. As nice as it sounds, if today everywhere is advised, but to be more "in the here and now", I do believe that such advice is too sweeping. The specifically human does not express itself in the IQ. The specifically human is not to be found in the EQ. Specifically human, however, is the ability to not simply of the need for rational problem-solving or a feeling to have (to) drive, but ... pause to withdraw to think.

What then is it when you look up to withdraw, from the concrete and the view expands, the (!) is the subject of PQ. In order to be able to work around, is the goal of philosophical attitude. For what then suddenly comes into view is not always pleasant. It rattles the robustness gained so far, and leads to limit the openness.

Vids Of How To Masterrbate

thinking is a stroke of luck ...

The thinking is to some extent the use of PQ - PQ is a form of intelligence, which is not limited to, rational argument to weigh and to be confined to the acknowledge what has been approved as the criteria (similar the game of the mind with itself, as Hannah Arendt has described very nice), but because of the philosophical views of just beyond and the "friendship" with what may be incomprehensible, what opens up behind it.

The encounter with the incomprehensible can now have two possibilities - first, and that is what Ralf has described the joy and the pursuit of balance, as the encounter with something new that enriches us, which shows us what It is everything else and thus open a window rather than a perspective (namely, our previous) destroyed.

The other is the much more familiar with, namely the interpretation that the other side of the border now threatens the self, perhaps belies or at least to call, the imperfection of their own Add perspective. This description is found in the actually very nice band: Why thinking makes you sad by George Steiner again, and so it is also clear how much it damages our human spirit to its own limitations, so much of this frustration bypass when the " objective "of the intellectual effort changes. If there is no longer a question of finding a final statement of reasons to write the perfect song or doing exactly the right thing, then we can reach this truth miss not permanent: it's just really only what is, and if we then are able to take this a sophisticated entertainment - and nothing else means PQ - to find out to what I money for this "is" get up, then the thinking is anything as sad, it is the source of real happiness.

How To A Unlock Trackfone

maintain a balance with PQ - I have no regrets

PQ should help lead to a "good life", ie a life of joy, which can not tarnish easily without having to entrench themselves.

It is therefore important to maintain a balance between ...

  • robustness, stability, conservation, the present, in kind, efficiency, safety
  • openness, flexibility, plasticity, future, new, other things, hope
It is our opinion, the condition for the possibility of a "good . Life "joy without a stability and security only a fleeting ray of hope in an otherwise anxiety-making world. Pleasure without openness and flexibility, however ossified and leads to backwardness

joy can therefore thrive only there long term, where a balance exists between internal and facing the outside "forces" to get between preservation and change.

How does this balance and can be produced? Makes it can not just walk into every person? No, unfortunately not. In most cases, robustness and openness in the significant imbalance. While Balance not static but an ongoing process, so that even during the balancing almost always there is an imbalance, so must prevail. But the imbalances of the successful balancing are minimal, are constantly changing and moving ideally very closely around the infinitesimally small rest point of balance.

Not only are most of robustness and openness in an unequal relation to each other, enabling real joy to experience again and again uncontrollably volatile. You can, we think, hardly be sustainable are in balance, because of an awareness about missing out that that balance is necessary.

balancing is a deliberate act. Only balanced, who has chosen to do so. And it only decides on who the recognized value of the balance.

awareness, knowledge, decision to include a "good life". And that's the point in PQ. A philosophical attitude seeks to consciousness strives for knowledge and facilitates the decision.

line through the film adaptation of the life of Edith Piaf is again their song title and motto "Non, je ne regrette rien" in conversation. Nothing to regret doing everything back the way you've already done if you were given the opportunity again exerts fascination, indeed seems positively desirable. And ... This idea corresponds entirely to what it's PQ. For without repentance can only be one who lives and consciously decides.

Awareness is the prerequisite for their own decisions. Without awareness, you decide yourself, but it is ruled by unconscious mental institutions. Only with awareness, you become real actors and "perpetrators", without reacting to it and "victim". For those who only responded and "victim of circumstances" is, has no choice and no responsibility. Yet both are required for repentance. It is as it were the reverse of the medal and the possible consequence. Only those who consciously decide, you can choose wrong and therefore regret the decision, too.

that Edith Piaf as a "victim of circumstances" has seen is hard to believe. Insurance, they have no regrets arose, therefore, a very conscious of living. Or else: a very conscious way of life leads almost necessarily to a life on the one exclaims, "I regret nothing!" For who is always conscious decision to opt for never something that already is certain at the moment of decision, either to regret later. Conscious decisions can not be different. Repentance is the possibility of other decision-ahead, however.

The goal of PQ could be possible to live a life according to the motto of Edith Piaf: I regret nothing!

Teething And Rash On Legs

A "good life" as the target of PQ PQ

PQ seems to us to the usual * Q as IQ, EQ etc. at least a useful addition. Situations where a PQ, a philosophical attitude can be helpful seem to afford the time. But what is the benefit of a PQ?

Another Q in the ranks of existing is not a benefit, but can at best be an occasion to reflect on the usefulness. The claim that there are many situations in which PQ is useful to show the benefits not yet measured directly, but said it only. Not for anything else however, it was before. We just wanted to first provide a little context for PQ. This blog's a diary of our own approach to PQ. In this respect, we do not go straight towards a clear goal, but rather tortuous path in a fog inside. And as we come now to the question: What PQ is to bring in practice? Where to help PQ?

Our answer, in brief: PQ is to help a "good life" to have.

Sounds simple, sounds like a commonplace. A "good life" but all sorts of "practices" to the target. Also, IQ and EQ and SQ do, more or less explicitly help to lead a good life, right?

Sure, so far the PQ ranks first in only one long series of offers. Unlike many other offers we can hold on for ever but PQ: PQ is not alone bring salvation. With PQ alone, a "good life" can not be achieved. This includes everything. For us, PQ Thus a complementary offer to others - which we think, however, that it is just not achievable without PQ as well, the "good life".

And what may But our view a "good life" look like? We think it through at least the following aspects:
  • joy
  • robustness
  • openness
In a "good" life, the positive, the joyful moments prevail. Laughter, recognition, security, sense of fullness, freedom, development and safety are our aspects of joy. A more precise definition of joy to us does not seem important, as long as we pathological forms of enjoyment (eg enjoyment of Injury leave of others) on the outside, seems a consensus more about what is part of the joy of culturally evident. Everyone will feel competent to distinguish a joyful situation from a non-joyous.

joy is certainly the center of a "good life". But joy is just very volatile. A "good life" For us, therefore, a certain robustness. Without joy, it can be dull quickly. Self-confidence and serenity are aspects of such robustness or stability, protect the joyful personality against the adversities of life.

joy therefore needs help to preserve it. Keep positive but may turn into negative bricking. Robustness needs therefore a drag. We believe that openness should be the opposing force. Openness makes the ramparts against the adversities of life permeable. A "good life" requires goodwill to make the smile does not freeze. Who in the world does not challenge openly and sympathetically, the entrenched behind its robustness.

Conversely, someone, openness and good will is not robust opposes such a leaf in the wind. Who will openness on stability, misses out on the development of a contoured personality. Conversely, head to the concrete personality, who represents stability of openness.

A "good life" has as its core, the joy, therefore, requires a balance between robustness and openness.


We now think that PQ can help, no, absolutely necessary to such an extent defined "good life" to live forever in our time and our culture.

Stop Leaking Water Bottles For Chinchillas



PQ, that is, a philosophical attitude is, for us, of course, not simply a matter of continuing a series acronym. Motto: "complete the following list: EQ, IQ, MQ, __." PQ is not intended as intellectual game for bridging commercial breaks.

PQ for us is rather a matter of everyday life. When Karl Popper says "All men are philosophers" , we believe that is exactly the expression PQ.

For PQ so no study is necessary, PQ requires no religious faith, you have to know not even know who Karl Popper and Kant or Plato were. Even if the PQ term "philosophy" lies, is a special philosophical knowledge - in particular the history of philosophy - not necessary.

The need for a PQ result for us of their benefit in the here and now. Three situations may illustrate this:
  • morning at Zeitunsgkiosk. The tabloid asks in large letters, whether it could it be true that now an RAF terrorist come free.
  • afternoon walking. A woman in a fur coat to keep a dog not to be hearing argument with a young man who rebelled in "holy anger" about the fact that they have taken on the death of innocent animals in their jewelry purchase.
  • evening on the road. A child asks his mother in the face of some inline skaters who roll on the road next to each other, because if that was allowed or if the contrary were not on the footpath.
Ordinary situations very different situations. What benefit is in them have a PQ? We believe PQ helps in these situations more or less openly made to answer questions.

Whether these questions are of general interest and shall have an answer for far-reaching consequences for society, or whether these issues flare up just short and of very personal interest is irrelevant. There are always issues that concern us. They speak to us in the way we ask for - to pause, to an opinion - as always short. They are like little crossroads where we must decide on a direction.

This decision shall be for the most part not on our way in the physical world, but they have influence on our spiritual path. Any answer we give us is a building block to our personality and therefore a paving stone on our (spiritual) life. Yes we

answers to the question of the release of a terrorist, yes to the question of the killing of animals for fur coats, yes to the question of the in-line skating on the street, then we move mentally in a different direction than we were three times with no answer.

answers to these questions and millions more are simply not in us. They are not simply "on the street" or are in books. We must instead find themselves over and over again. We have to decide for them. Even if we react to a new situation with an old answer, we answer the So apparently are just not needed, because she was already in us, so we still have to decide for this old answer. The confirmation or reuse of a response is an action and not a state.

We now think that PQ will help us deal with these ever-necessary decisions. Therefore, for us at the beginning of the PQ just this awareness of the inevitability of permanent decision. We all are constantly in demand. The world calls us every minute, "take a stand! Confess you!"

Lose Inches With Cermic Wrap

opportunities to take a stand ...

The Smart is not on the philosophy that it seems to imply an infinite number of thoughts, but that they also reflects about what she sees what she perceives and observes. Admittedly, it remains mostly in the range of intellectual discussion, but that was not always so. not exist, he has so long been questions until he had reached "the base" and if this reason was the realization that it is simply this -

Socrates has maintained the core of philosophical activity in the market place or in dialogue with his students , then it has a very concrete benefit. It means the shift in perspective with which we view things. The trenchant asking questions often leads to more than the juxtaposition of apparent compromise solutions or quick fixes like that already in the approach to be fragmented are seen.

We have in dealing with our own perception of a great instrument to get on the way to deal with all the sensual, emotional and mental impulses that flow every day for us. But we must be aware that we need to set this tool on reception - otherwise it is useless. I mean the thinking, the conscious reflection of "what is" and this "is" keeps moving.

It is not a static thinking that gets caught in arguments and rational theory, but a thought, as a tool - a tool - offering to the often unintelligible chaos (both outwardly and inwardly) a to provide orientation. This orientation means a ground-breaking support and just not finding the final declarations. The thinking should not stand in that which it thinks - otherwise it defies even the basis, is arrogant and empty. A phenomenon that happens to us in the sciences these days often ...

Thought, which is characterized as a philosophical fact, does not want to turn away from those things by getting them leveled to the generally accepted theories, but would like to know in their organic with and for each other - perhaps understand. But that means the same time that it is courageous enough to take its own position: ask who wants to make, must know whom he intended - who seeks contact with others, need to know where the other begins and he ends - who says the dialogue seriously, must have to say something themselves.

would in this sense explain today I like Al Gore into a hero of the philosophical intelligence, has implemented a few weeks, the warnings from the UN on climate change in a large-scale project: "Live Earth" - a concert in July in major cities this make the world aware of the need for action is - certainly, this is the ozone hole is shrinking. There is no solution, but it is a very clear way of doing things, as they are, to question and to believe in the possibility of change.

Models And Genital Tattoos

Why are there PQ? Welcome

IQ, EQ, SQ, MQ ... have not we already have enough quotient? We are to "generally" be smart, can solve problems that is of the verbal, mathematics, or orientation (IQ). It is important to "intelligent" to deal with interpersonal situations (EQ). We should not neglect our spiritual side and deal intelligently with the question of meaning of life (SQ). And of course, sovereignty with respect to moral issues or questions of right and fairness is required.

Galt 30 years ago, a high IQ and nobility of a person, then it does today - As in radio - the mix. Not an intelligence is important, multiple intelligences can be seen in every human being and promote. At least eight have been identified today. So not really have anything to say about Q?

We think not. We believe that all of these intelligences is a little too short, which was formerly very popular: the reflective thinking or the thinking.

to continue series of numbers, identify inappropriate words in a list to be able to empathize, to practice fair dealings and also about the hard material world to look beyond skills are desirable. Without question. But was this all? To which Intelligence could be expected as the ability to think about these intelligences? To which include intelligence, the critical questions we have for the IQ-hype now brought EQ etc.? What intelligence helps the changes in the last 30 years in the perspective to deal in intelligence?

We feel that this neither IQ nor EQ are sufficient even sq. Rather, it seems useful, an intelligence - or, more generally, an attitude and skills - to cultivate, which builds bridges between the intelligences. People need a counter weight for too much too much IQ or EQ. And we see this counterweight from its ability to rise to consciousness. Therefore, PQ describes for us at first an attitude. PQ starts out more in being, as in having. It is our foundation and framework for the play of the other intelligences.

PQ instead of PH, we have then chosen as an acronym to express simply the proximity to the other intelligences. And - we do not conceal it - and marketing considerations have played a part. Because a good idea - and we keep PQ ;-) - is nothing as long as they can not be reduced to a succinct point that stuck in people's minds. PQ on the basis of IQ, EQ, etc. seemed as an attractive label for the Meme "philosophical attitude".

Lungs Cancer Chracter



Welcome to the blog by Ina Schmidt and Ralf Westphal on PQ.

PQ represents Philosophy intelligence or philosophical attitude, although present in these terms but a "P" but no "Q". With the acronym PQ we would rather move to the vicinity of other "types of intelligence." IQ (the "intellectual" intelligence quotient - is not is pleonastic), EQ (Emotional Intelligence Quotient) SQ (spiritual intelligence quotient or sense-oriented) and MQ (Moral intelligence quotient) are already on everyone's lips.

We now think that despite all the relevance of this ratio, these different "intelligences" the world well still benefit more from a can. The recent * Q already cover a nice spectrum of human weaving - but finds something very decisive with them little consideration. The reason, thought, reflection as they were developed in a long philosophical tradition, have seemingly no place in the general Q-hype of recent years.

this blind spot, we want to fill our thoughts on PQ. This blog is our rough draft, in which we express our thoughts first and foremost, reflect and comment. What do we do it later ... We shall see.

If you want to follow the development of PQ is welcome. Commentaries are always welcome.
