Brilliant. This is just the tip of the iceberg of all things that need to be changed in this sick ridden world. If it stops at cosmetic changes of how we accomplish present "jobs" in current system it will end up in bigger chaos. Things need to change from the root, leaving slavery, work/concentration camps, marketing, greed and hypocrisy behind.
yea, that's not misleading. because the rest of the instructions are "so the wax doesn't drip onto the table." the point of the experiment is to think critically while using abstract thought. besides, the group that had the box obviously visible was able to "attach the candle to the wall" with no problem.
The first part of the instructions puts in your mind that you are supposed to attach the CANDLE to the wall. You get that idea stuck in your head. But maybe that was his point.
my first instinct was to get the candle to the wall without it dripping regardless of attaching it there or having it float there lol. but i didn't think about using the box which is his main point about 'if then' rewards killing creativity
Yes I agree with a lot of this. But did they factor in the pressure and stress involved when it is timed and a monetary reward? Those people choked under the pressure.
I think most bonuses/incentives in business aren't timed. They are usually incentives to increase overall profit. So it isn't really a fair comparison. IMHO anyway.
Is it intelligent to live under the constraints of parental and socialised conditioning and effects. How could the system survive if people were educated to activate and engage their intelligence in their own lives, the lives of others and the world.
