DAK, the joy of being in the zone [which I love the experience of, but it's a tricky thing to achieve, though essential for hitting a big drive down the middle or sinking a 10 or 20 metre putt] is the pure state of mindlessness and the perfect result which comes.
Yes, it's a pure state of being. Which is fine for repetitive acts, like walking, playing golf, snooker or whatever. But it's useless for figuring out what the heck to do with a novel situation which has never been and for which one has no guidelines.
That state comes after a long period of thinking, trying, practising and retrying - which is what Tiger Woods spends a LOT of time doing. We don't start out in the zone.
CDMA stands for China Democracy Moves Ahead. No wonder they have selected 1xRTT in Shanghai for the new year. They are thinking ahead. The top leaders are nearly all engineers. Thinkers and doers. Action without thought is chimpanzee stuff. Thought without action is pointless, but maybe fun. Fun isn't pointless. It's all part of the process of feedback, thought, action, feedback, thought, fun, action, feedback, thought, action, in a never-ending movie [well, never-ending for a while anyway].
Ommmmmmm,
