I'm always hearing the phrase " Great minds think alike" constantly when two people have the same thought. Each time I heard it, it was like whatever " I guess it makes sense" but lately its really hit me that " Great Minds DON'T think alike".
if you really think about it hard enough and compare great minds and also criminal minds (cause face it, some of these people are pretty smart when it comes to really plotting out their crimes and then making the feds run around for clues and come up empty handed, you really need a "great mind" to keep clean with all the technology that's come out in this day and age.) Ow ow back on track to the main thought, for the past couple of days this same persisting thought has been going through my mind.
Great minds are attracted by their differences, what one mind thinks the other disagrees and together their differences create an even better thought, as that opposed to before. Their differences are what attract them to each other. If two people share the same thinking pattern or train of thought then the outcome of a problem or solution to that problem would be the same. And nothing much would come out of that.
Within Psychology, many theories became to be because those other great minds questioned and derived their own theory from the theory of another, basically saying that within one thought many more different thoughts can be created and thought up but only by those that have that difference in mind and dare to question the others thoughts. No I am not talking in the context of two people arguing over one another's opinions but in the sense that great minds have the ability to extend or add to another great thought.
Great minds will think differently to create or in their words "give birth to" a great thought. they cancel each others flaws out to create perfection.
Mediocre minds oppress those with great minds because small and great minds see themselves on the margins of life... Mediocre minds perceive themselves as the norm, on account that not everyone can think that far outside the box like great minds but cant be too confined in a small box of thoughts like a small mind , which is believed at that level to be the negative thoughts towards everything in life. Small minds see every aspect of life as one way and alternates while their opposite Great minds see even the most complex factors to be further looked at, questioned and broken down into more narrowed down thoughts that can also be further broken down and questioned as well.
To be a Great Mind, You must never fear of what may become of the questions you possess. And if someone dare to analyze your thoughts more, think of it as another Great Mind ... just doing their thing ;)

Words from one of the Greatest Minds |
There is a quote that absolutely sums up everything about Great Minds and Small Minds and here it is
there is a simple but impossible thought that comes to mind but that too only to certain individuals. that thought is that small minds are too concerned with what is said but is not seen or been proven; also known as the extraordinary. While on the other hand, Great minds try to find the extraordinary within the ordinary because the simple thought is that even within something that is seen and lost; its wonder, hold even more awe and mystery to it. To find such wonder, takes a great deal of patience and understanding that something amazing will never reveal itself too soon because even it has its own respect to reveal its wonders on its own time.
Great Minds, we will never think alike but we will conquer!! together !
