  1. Insight has been responsible for many new ideas. It is a special relationship in the mind of a thinker. Insight comes about through focus, objective, search, re-direction, and the capacity to identify new relationships and behaviours within a specific area. Seeing something in a new or different way is also a form of insight; as is understanding a situation from a fresh perspective. Conscious rearrangement of perceptions is also a form of insight. The habit of disciplined thinking using thinking skills can bring about insights.   
  2. Energy and enthusiasm come from having a worthwhile objective that brings a sense of achievement through actual achievement. The achievement can be difficult or easy but it should be beneficial. If the initial energy is not present, then some thinking is necessary to bring ideas to life.
  3. Problems are often only distractions from important objectives. A problem is a special situation that either needs immediate attention or ignoring. One can also pass important problems to problem-solvers, since the time spent can be more expensive trying to solve it oneself. Usually one's own objectives are simple problem-free steps that give satisfaction upon achievement, while most problems can be smiled at. Many problems are manufactured by attention-seekers for purposes of time wasting.
  4. Peace, love, and all human virtue originates in the individual human act of thinking about thinking. Thinking about thinking has to make decisions about values, objectives, timing, other people; and how to prioritise action steps and think about how to interact with others and others' objectives. Alternative choices need to be created first, before any one choice can be decided upon. The better the thinking in the design stage of any project, the more effective any project will be. When thinking is under individual control, a trained thinker can at any time change an objective, start a new plan, create back-up plans, or stop an objective.
