Perception and the “Mental Architecture” concept.

“Mental Architecture”… hmmm… what an interesting concept and what an interesting perspective provided by dbanta (I don’t know….). Before I offer a new perspective, please allow me to say one thing. “I know dbanta and no matter who you may be, you are no dbanta”. I know… you related easily to his free wheeling and his wind under your wing poetry but you have been provided only a glimpse of his soul and his soul is the bases of his “Mental Architecture”. dbanta reaches deeper within himself to resolve the most complex concerns while humming a tune and gives each the same priority. You will do well to emulate him but keep in mind, you will never be him.

Contrary to dbanta, I have been described as anal and safe. That is the perspective that most would see when considering my “Mental Architecture”. I am seen routinely working for a business as an employee, living a life style within my means and basically a drone in society. How does this relate to the “Mental Architecture” concept? Well, bear with me. The way we are perceived by others can be influential in our decision making and isn’t that how most develop their “Mental Architecture”? A teacher presents a subject in an interesting manor or not. You grasp the subject based on your perception of the presentation. You make a decision to pursue the subject based on your impression and the process referred to as a “Mental Architecture” begins.  A crossroads is encountered and a path is chosen. For those who are most concerned by how they are perceived by others, the path is predictable. For those who could care less how they are perceived are genuine to themselves and the message is received. Most importantly, the choices are endless and like dbanta, we become free birds in the wind. I am not offering a formula for success, only a perspective of perception and how it relates to the “Mental Architecture” concept.
