It is Just a Myth that the Doors of the White House Are Open to New Ideas. I Have Been Banging on Their Doors For the Last Eight Years.

The situation is very dire. Not only are our so called experts in the White House ignorant; they have closed minds and are not really open to innovation from outsiders. It is like there is a fire raging in the brain of the majority of humanity where the mind is trying to define, understand, manage and control the effects of the fire. Our experts try to teach the mind how to handle the effects of the brain’s fire without being aware that it is brain that is burning and needs to be doused with therapy.

It is the over worked, tired and injured brain that needs attention but our experts keep churning out books after books focused on teaching and changing minds; when the mind itself is generated by the injured brain. Any wonder in spite of all the material progress the greed, unhappiness, corruption, failure, drug addiction, selfish, sleeplessness levels remain the same.

It is the emotional baggage that we as parents create in our children during early upbringing that lights and feeds this fire in the brain that shapes the emotionally challenged brain. Instead of healing the brain the mind is coached, taught, coxed, preached, threatened and even punished to be and behave emotionally healthy. It is like the brain is wired to produce nitrogen and our leaders keep tinkering with the mind to produce oxygen. It is like the engine is on fire and our experts keep trying to fix the radiator to put out the heat.

The defective brain keeps generating the fire and is crying for attention but our experts are focused on fixing the mind. The raging fire effects everything from relationships to happiness, from crime to student learning.

Wisdom is emotional health that springs from creating humbleness. Ignorance is emotional sickness that is generated by creating machoness. Girls are far more emotionally stable as we bring them up humble when our boys we bring up macho and as a result we create emotionally challenged brains in our boys. And for the rest of the boys’ lives we keep trying to manage and control the emotionally challenged behavior of our boys without trying to fix the emotionally challenged brains.

The cure to all these ills of society are now well known but our leaders are too busy trying to fix the minds when it is the brains that need healing. Just imagine if we brought up our boys and girls as humble as possible.

The other major defective upbringing that makes the brain and mind emotionally challenged is when we ingrain the belief of each one being the best. This creates a phony over confident and/or an under confident emotionally challenged self image. Emotionally healthy confidence has to be created through practice, practice and more practice. Just like Tiger Woods’ dad did not tell Tiger that he is the best and made him become the best.

To rid the society of all these problems our leaders will have to shift the focus from changing minds to healing brains.

President Obama still has time to put America on the path to emotional health by waking up to the fact that the majority of society is emotionally challenged due to the emotionally challenged brain conditioning during early upbringing.
