App Overview
What is Conscious Spiritual Thinking? What is Conscious Spiritual Thinking? Conscious
spiritual thinking is based on the principle of connectedness. It guides actions and behavior by combining
these three thinking abilities. Personal “Awareness” Thinking: This
thinking enables us to connect to our inner self and our personal
wisdom. Its purpose is to help us use
our personal talents and gifts to their fullest. Community “Oneness” Thinking: This thinking enables us to connect
to the wisdom of others. Its purpose
is to help us blend our talents and grow
through collaborative behavior. Systems “Wholeness” Thinking” This
thinking enables comprehensive understanding of our connectedness with our
environment, earth and God. Its purpose is to help us take actions with full
knowledge of their consequences on our world at large. Our world is
changing faster than our ability to understand and guide its
development. Dr. Edward de Bono in the
book, Think Before It’s Too Late, may have said it best: The biggest problem facing the world today
is not … pollution, war, poverty or climate change … but inadequate thinking. Win/Lose “either/or”
thinking:
Today most of us continue to use industrial-age problem solving thinking to
deal with managing change. This type of thinking is based on analysis and
choosing among alternatives. Problem Solving thinking leads to making either/or decisions, and taking
win/loss actions that benefit some but not all. Win/win
“both/and” thinking:
The time has come for Spiritual thinking that takes a different approach.
Instead of choosing the best alternative, Spiritual Thinking combines the
best of all alternatives. This type of thinking leads to both/and decisions and win/win actions that benefit the whole. “If you want to change how you act … you need to change how you
think” … Unknown author So, how can we
change the way we think? It has taken each of us a lifetime to get to where
we are now with our thinking! The answer is quite simple. Thinking is driven
by the questions you ask. So if you
change your questions … you’ll change your thinking. There is one
problem to overcome, however. Over time our mind naturally gets into thinking
ruts. One of them is our mind keeps asking
the same questions. The result is we keep coming up with the same types of answers
and solutions … for everything! This App uses
a facilitated thinking approach. It is designed to be used in real-time … like having a spiritual
advisor with you. To do that, the App has over 700 questions embedded into a
five step spiritual thinking process that contains 14 thinking tasks. Simply
find the task you are thinking about and consider asking some different
questions. Note: The
ultimate goal of this App is for you to reach a point of automatically asking
the right spiritual questions and no longer needing to use it. |
