To Awaken

Do you want to be alert. Do you want to think for yourself? Do you seek wisdom and understanding? Do you crave being intelligent? Here are a few steps that should help.

1. Think, think, think, use your brains.
2. Think for yourself; accept nothing at face value.
3. Question your own thought processes and those of all surrounding you.
4. Be curious about everything.
5. Read everything.
6. Talk to, read the works of and critique the works of very smart people.
7. Listen, really listen to what people say.
8. Listen, really listen to what God is telling you.
9. Listen, really listen to what the world around you is telling you.
10. Follow your hunches.
11. Observe everyone and everything.
12. Experiment, test hypotheses.
13. Come to know the self very, very well.
14. Introspect, reflect all the time.
