The Big Think: Greatness (a yell from within)
Greatness is a wonderful thing. The the creative roar of the passionate lion and the rebel yell of the iconoclast thinker. And sometimes it takes courage to roar out loud or yell at the top of your lungs.
Courage to stand up against the many and varied voices of mediocrity.
Sometimes, the notion of greatness is heaped upon the disinfranchised pile of human achienvements called ego. And while the attachment to the ego can be a pracarious thing, the pursuit of achievement is more than a task, it's a drive to fulfill our birthright....our "inalienable right" to manifest our true human potential and experience the profound joy of intellectuct.
Our capacity to think, to reason and to experieince life is too frequently left to the static role of the classroom and the exterior sense of learning that takes us only a very short distance away from facts to the destination of knowledge.
Our capacity--our biomemory and neural processing abality--is vast. And sometimes we just need to flip the switch and recognize that.
Genius (yes, a profound and rich realization) is our birthright. And mediocarity is self-imposed.
