What is Genius?

by Dr. Tony Alessandra

Paul MacCready is a writer and inventor who has carefully studied genius and the ways people understand that concept. MacCready has evolved several categories of what genius seems to mean, and these can be useful starting point for defining what genius really is.

In the first category is what Paul MacCready calls the “everyone agrees” geniuses. These people are the great icons of civilization, including Einstein, Leonardo daVinci, Shakespeare, and Michelangelo.

Is there anybody who believes Einstein wasn’t a genius? I don’t think so — so this category is for the geniuses who are elected by unanimous consent. These are many of the same people who were mentioned in my own informal research. We’ll have much more to say about them in this session and throughout the program. In fact, most of our models for the various genius categories will be drawn from this group.

MacReady’s second category is the officially designated geniuses. These are the people who have won Nobel Prizes or other highly respected awards. Whether or not we understand what they’ve accomplished, we think of them as geniuses based on their recognition by people who are supposed to know one when they see one.

A third category includes people who haven’t yet gained national or international prominence, but who have done something so remarkable that they seem to be in a different realm from ordinary mortals. Some of these are the prodigy young people I mentioned earlier in this session — students who have won national science contests or gotten perfect scores on standardized tests.

Often they’re not the best in the day to day conduct of school or business, but they have some special gift that eventually reveals itself. Quite often, these people are underachievers who struggle with Shyness and low self-esteem. Their surprising success is surprising only because they’ve deliberately tried to stay in the background.

I think you can see how each of these three categories seems quite Legitimate — but it’s the fourth one that’s really most important for this program. And you may be surprised to learn that the fourth category questions or even completely refutes the other three. Because the fourth category includes everybody.

It’s based on the idea that we all have the potential for achievements that are wrongly considered possible for only a few. And there’s plenty of evidence for this. After all, the physical and mental challenges of learning to walk and talk are more difficult than anything we face later in life — yet the vast majority of human beings meet these challenges successfully. True, it’s been argued that these primary skills are hardwired into our genetic makeup. But there are many things that the genetic argument can’t account for.

In the 17th and 18th centuries, for example, it was simply expected that every member of the educated class would be able to read and speak several different languages, write poetry, play a musical instrument, and know much of the Bible by heart. Furthermore, all these skills were performed at a very high level and at very early ages. In other words, thousands of people routinely displayed abilities that today would be considered truly amazing — and perhaps even evidence of genius.

But in those days what we call genius was just the fulfillment of society’s expectations. When we speak of everybody being a genius in this sense, it doesn’t mean everyone has to get 800s on their SATs or have an IQ of 150 or above. It doesn’t mean everybody can play the violin or create beautiful oil paintings. Those are other ways of looking at the concept of genius. But right now, let’s go back to the origin of the word itself.

A researcher by the name of Thomas Armstrong has done some excellent work on this. He points out that the word genius is closely related to the word genesis. It comes from Greek and Latin words meaning “beget,” “be born,” or ” come into being.” It’s also related to the word genial, meaning “festive” or “jovial.”

In the Middle East, the term has been linked to the word jinni, or genie, the magical power that lay dormant and hidden in Aladdin’s lamp until a secret method released it. Combining all these roots leads to a very powerful and beautiful definition of genius. It means “giving birth to your joy.” In this sense, genius is a word for an individual’s hidden potential. It also includes the process of discovering that potential and transforming it into action.

But the first step is belief. The first step is certainty that you have greater capabilities than you thought. Not only do you have those capabilities — you also have a responsibility to develop them and put them to use.

Your words are bringing life or death and you pay the price.

Most of the things you may have been reading or listening to about bringing on your success and victory may not have really registered deep down where the profound re-programming begins.

This may be BECAUSE you can’t see the power in what you are being asked to do.

For the most part you may still only trust what you can see. Even though the science of personal development  lays down a precise and exact instruction of how to behave to attract wealth and abundance, the changes you need to make may not be happening because somewhere inside you you don’t BELIEVE in the power of some things you are asked to do.

Perhaps you believe that they are just too simple to create the impact you need.

Well the exciting fact remains that opportunity is still available to you.

Today you STILL have 57,600 ground breaking, rock your world opportunities to change your future even if you ONLY focus on the resource of your WORDS.

This number is assessed on the premise that you will probably be awake 16 hours.. x 60 minutes… x 60 seconds (= 57,600 moments).

Within each moment is a PRECISE AND EXACT INSTRUCTION which YOU are giving to the creative process in the form of words to make happen AS IS.

These WORDS are those:-

- leaving your mouth,
– in your writing,
– through your mobile texting,
– in your head,
– through your singing

*** and each of these words hold100% power of LIFE and DEATH ***.
Your words are truly that serious.  The creative process is not a joke and does not stop working because you are having a bad day and ‘don’t mean what you say’… or whether can see the significance or believe that the words can manifest as a reality.

If you even recorded what comes out of your mouth for ONE DAY and then had it transcripted you would probably be shocked. Comparing what you think you are saying against what you are actually saying would be a radical contrast.

Does it take effort to control your words?

YES.

Will it get easier?

YES.

Will you do it?

DON’T KNOW.

Nobody is going to change your life except you. No matter what anyone says to you, thinks about you, or behaves towards you is relevant to your creative process. The only thing that will CONTROL your life is what comes OUT of you and what you accept IN to your world. Your CREW who are waiting on your every word are not hearing, seeing or paying attention to anything anyone else does or says in your life!

If you do not control your words and WATCH to see what they are going to ‘put into motion’ you will never gain control and will always be held victim by your circumstances as they are currently defaulted.

I once heard an I.T. technician frustratingly claim that he wished humans were more like computers. What he hadn’t realised is that computers are a perfect expression of human behaviour in as much as they are perfectly predictable – you will get out exactly what you put in.

Every program and software package (which provides the source of the power ‘to create’ was built by a human and therefore mirrors how a human thinks and operates.

Microsoft Windows did not create itself, a human told it how to operate and therefore it works the way the designer WROTE it based on the way the designed thinks. If it didn’t work the way he thinks then he could not understand it to work on it!

Computers will do exactly as they are programmed and they are programmed with WORDS.

Example of Programming Source Code for a Webpage

When a programmer gets an error and a page doesn’t load online he/she goes to the ‘source code’ and studies the code.  I can confirm from designing websites myself that going through the code to find a specific error is much more of an ardous task than taking the time to write and check that it is correct when it is first committed to site!

It is the same for our lives. Start re-writing correct versions of what you want today and it will overwrite the conflicting instructions from the past. Don’t waste energy trying to figure out where things are going wrong, start writing powerfully from this moment on.

So the critical question is the source of your language killing everything all day long or giving life to situations?

If it has been destroying..? NO PROBLEM! It has passed. You cannot change it BUT you can start writing a new future today.

However, to do this you have got to take control of yourself which is the fundamental difference between those that live the life they choose and those that live the life they are held randsom by (or at least how they see it).

It is hard to control my mouth!

Well let’s see how true this really is for you?

- If Donald Trump called you right now, and regardless of how stressful your circumstances, would you change how you speak?

- When your young children speak to you do you at least start to think about choosing different words?

- If somebody you want to impress shows up do you speak differently?

YES? Then clearly you can change your vocabulary when you have a good enough reason…

… so the question is not how hard is it but how much do you want things to get better?

The ability to take control is not determined by your upbringing, background and education.

When computers were first set up they were based on a programming language called “BASIC” and this language was enough to instruct anything to happen.

If you can speak, write and think you have established a BASIC ability to create and therefore have the same potential than anyone else to create anything you desire.

Watch what you do with your words today… will your words give life to better experiences or bring about death and destruction?

Listen to yourself, it’s the only way to find out and start to change it.

If you are too caught up in opening your mouth without thinking and really struggling then ask those closest to you to tell you when you are causing destruction with your mouth.

Bottom line is, don’t let it continue words are the most phenomenal resource you have that costs you no amount of money but will TRANSFORM YOUR WORLD and attract the success you want. If you want to clear up the words and the source of any destruction buried within the four walls of your home, get yourself a copy of Home Your Wealth and get started on a new life today.

Annemarie excelled in the area of business and finance management and was asked to lecture in this field. She chose to work in the corporate world for 20 years, however she discovered her real passion lies in the exploration of ‘consciousness’ and the science of how we ‘create and manifest’. She began her interest in metaphysics with an introduction to Astrology at the age of 11.

Deepening her experiences in self-development and healing, Annemarie qualified as a Reiki Master in 1985, Melchizedek Method Practitioner in 1986 and Soul Contract Practitioner in 1999.

Her exploration into consciousness, multi-dimensional existence and the effects of the mind, the body and the spirit on physical ‘real’ity, deepened.

She learned about energy in motion and frequencies relating to ‘manifestation’ leading to the discovery of profound truths about the hidden messages in everything around us (something the Egyptians have been showing us for a long time). She later realised she had uncovered a unique gift of being able to ‘see’ the outside world as a reflection of her inner self, her ‘psyche in action’ in a very detailed way.

Knowing how powerfully effective this information could change lives, she focused on establishing scientific information to give credibility to what had become an ‘intuited’ process. It took her 4 years to define a new formula for living called “The Mirror”.

An empowering process using a Wealth Filter to determine the consciousness in everything around you, from your home to the pen you use. The first book, POWER SURGE introduces the Matrix in your life, shows you how everything is related to you and therefore under your control and HOME YOUR WEALTH helps you go inside your home and personal spaces and clear your unconscious Matrix removing blocks you didn’t know were there.

“It was never in my conscious awareness to write books.  Many years ago I became aware of a unique vision I had enabling me to see the intangible truth behind physical occurrences. A matrix of instructions explaining why everything in life is the way it is; an almost x-ray vision.

Though I wasn’t aware of its significance, its timing was poignant bearing in mind how confused I was about my life. Considering how much I knew up to that point about metaphysics and how knowledgeable I’d become about the creative process, I was frustrated that my life was still so miserable. 

This vision I had of a room which was layered into a set of three architect’s drawings hovering above each other like a set of energetic matrices provided a profound breakthrough.

I also observed that I was becoming the room or the room was an extended version of me; ‘I’ seemed to end where the walls ended.

This untapped layer of vision revolutionised my life and started to create the kind of results that years of healing and self-development left wanting.

The changes in my life have been significant and I hasten to add the disclaimer that ultimately responsibility for making it happen, lies with me. If you use the processes in my books, you will transform your life; however nobody is going to make you do it except you.

Magnetising wealth is a precise and exact science.  It has taken me years to be able to formulate this vision I saw into ‘The Mirror Process’, creating a very practical way for you to secure the life you want for yourself.  Now you have it and it truly works. — Annemarie Doolin
