Part 1 Brain Software Selection/Installation How to quickly gain the information you need, and engage in speedy blind-spot elimination Part 2 Brain Hardware/Software Upgrades Actions to help you evaluate, improve, and attain exquisite information handling performance Part 3 Optimal Operating System Installation Overview The subconscious installation of a powerful suite of great life strategies Intro A community of men can be likened to a network of computers; each calculating, then sending, and receiving information from one to another. Your social networks (allies & peers) processing accuracy and speed matters; as the product of their minds will feed into yours, helping it, or corrupting it respectively. This means you should try to maximise: the time you spend in the social company of the Perfect Divine Mind & Best Human Minds, and spend time considering communications from them you consider most personally and currently relevant, and the most worthwhile of others peoples communications also. Who to you best represents the divine perfect mind? Whom do you rank as the best human minds? What is the most vexing question and pressing problem you have? What do these minds have to say on that matter? You would benefit from keeping two additional lists; 1) of the speeches, books and people you consider the best communicators on the most important topics. 2) of the questions to which you still seek answers, prioritising those you feel the most important & urgent. Use these lists to efficiently remind and inform yourself what's important.

But she soon discovers she isn't turning into a zombie - she's turning into something else. --------- Excerpt: I looked up and stared. My reflection looked back at me in the mirror of the dark room. My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

Five-year-old Kendall Frodell is a genius and has been ever since she was born. The fact that she can and does read high school material, can mentally solve a wide array of equations, and has an incredible memory for trivia could've all easily skipped her from Kindergarten to fifth grade. But Kenny's intelligence (along with her voice) hides behind vague, situation-based index cards and rewritten answers. Things quickly change when she becomes afflicted with peculiar fainting spells-- ones where she walks, writes, and even solves equations while seemingly unconscious. Her erudition is unwillingly revealed, and she's whisked off to an academy for people like her. Very suddenly becoming aware of a whole society of gifted children, school has never been more challenging. An enforced social hierarchy, infamously harsh teachers, blockheaded children-- and the brief disappearances of her classmates only add to everything. In the style of both Ender's Game and the X-Men, The Prodigies is a piece of speculative fiction that will leave you...curious. Highest Ranking: #2 in Science Fiction [©2017-2018.
