From Imagining the Tenth Dimension: A New Way of Thinking About Time and Space by Rob Bryanton.
Summary
As you read this, you are at a specific point in time, the 4th dimension.
If we could see in the 5th dimension, we'd see the future as a spectrum of possibilities.
The spectrum of possibilities is determined by
- Choice
- Chance
- Choices of others
Now Therefore
- Start thinking, talking and writing about all the possibilities.
- You will get better at it.
- 📝Storyteller Consciousness
Generally understood
- A line is one dimensional. You define it by its length - its only dimension.
- What you see on your screen is 2 dimensional - length x width.
- When you pick up your device it's 3 dimensional - length x width x depth
- We live from moment to moment in the third dimension.
- The fourth dimension is “duration” - days, weeks, years, decades
Now picture yourself as a “Long undulating snake”
With your embryonic self at one end and your deceased self at the other
And watch a minute or two of this until you get confused. LOL
In the 5th dimension there is a multitude of paths
- choice
- chance
- actions of others
We generally plan from where we are.
- We have habits.
- We have things we do that we like to do
- We have things we do that we don’t like to do
- etc
Start seeing those possibilities
- Talk about them
- Write about them
- Have fun with them
Over time milestones will come into focus
- Talk about where we are
- Talk about where we are going
- Write about it
- Have fun with it.
- Agree on them
Create unlimited runway
- Build a 📝Profitable Revenue Stream, grow from there
By describing the possibility as far out as you can get - and giving yourself enough runway
Thought exercise - all time as one observable thing
- Imagine your device floating away from you in slow motion as if in space
- Imagine the screen of your device replaying everything
- From when you first turned it on
- Until it started floating away from you.
