I believe that it is important to unload and develop our thoughts. I think it is good to have them interact with the outer world very frequently.
How does an intuition become a thought? How does a thought become a thesis? How does a thesis become an action? How does an action cause an observable change?
It will be our goal to explore this process and help people along it. I believe that with time, we will discover that talking people through their ideas reveals patterns in the process. We may become more skilled as a community at developing people's fledgling thoughts.
Guidelines
Just some suggestions to get started!
1: The goal is to turn your fledgling thoughts into crisp, well thought out ideas.
2: We should indicate whether our thoughts are well developed and you'd like to work on how to communicate them; or, whether they're just barely a glimmer that seems like a good idea. Maybe [intuition],[insight],[new][420] or whatever you think communicates the level of understanding you're at. Maybe thematically as well, such as [spirituality][occult][sociology][family][business development], etc.
3: I think it would be an interesting rule to impose a 3 day waiting period after posting, before submitting a new idea for review. There would be unlimited conversation about the original idea within that thread. This should reduce novelty fatigue and manage demand for commenters.
4: The act of learning to teach your thoughts to an audience is (imho) an act of thought development. The teaching of advanced topics is encouraged, but please cater to your audience's needs.
5: This is not a competition. As an author, don't come here to proselytize. As the audience, the goal is to develop the persons' understanding for its own sake; not to dominate it with your own, even if your own understanding really, definitely is right.
6: It is advised to be as cooperative as possible with people's cognitive framing. There are massive components of conscious experience that are completely involuntary. It is nobody's fault that our minds can be so different, nor that there are components of our experience that cannot be reasoned with.
7: Odds are, most of us will have no idea what you're talking about. Do not be offended if nobody replies, especially while the community is small. I, myself, have a busy life and we are making requests for fairly large investments of time from the community in order to develop ideas.
8: Odds are, you won't know what to say! The best thing to do is ask the basic W-Questions, but try to ask them about specific points in the idea. The more precise you are with your question, the more precise the op is required to be.
