his own research

on life - his life - never to be published.

This ordinary men and women are working hard at their areas of interest, trying to improve their own life in any way they can by watching TV, reading this article, surfing the Internet, reading newspapers, talking to counsellors and ministers and so on.

Each one of those people will have quite a bit of good ideas

in his term, he would experience moments of inspiration, and also inspirational moments, but would he be able to tell inspirational from inspiration?

Recognizing a good idea when it came along?

The one that perhaps could have helped him in understanding and improving his life, in any field.

Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened' Sir Winston Churchill

One very important quality of the great men mentioned above was to recognize a moment of inspiration as an important one - a good idea, and not letting it go by unnoticed.

It is not so easy to tell a good idea from a passing thought

and it takes practice to know whether it is an inspiration or inspirational.

There are three definitions for inspiration to be found in the Cambridge Dictionaries online:

1 - Someone or something that gives you ideas for doing something.

2 - A sudden good idea

3 - An example which people admire- Inspirational: making you feel hopeful or encouraged.

The human brain - mind is arguably the most sophisticated product of evolution on the planet earth. The amount of intelligence produced by the organism is mind-blowing.

Still, in the end of the day careful observation shows most of the brain's work is a mechanical one, predicted, but not all of it.

Reason is :

A - No brain is the same which allows fluctuation

as humans copy and learn from each other, there is room for development and further evolution.

B - The evolution struggle is taking place in the brain itself just like everywhere else - different brain centers are competing with each other (but also joining forces) for importance, and synaptic patterns and neuron highways are competing as well.

This competition could result in new neuron pathways and can lead to new ideas and inspiration.

C - The job the 'new' brain , the Neo Cortex does most and best, is to absorb all incoming information with the help of the senses, evaluate and make decisions and predictions on further possible actions,

All of that results in many millions of actions and reactions per day which again allows for unexpected thinking variations
