Stefan and I got married here in Germany 6 years ago and our experience buying a wedding
cake really surprised both of us.
Hey everyone, Dana here!
When Stefan and I got married in Germany we tried our best to mix together the American
and German wedding traditions, and one thing that we agreed upon as far as the American
wedding traditions went was having an American-style wedding cake with multiple tiers.
There weren't really too many things that I had always dreamed about having at my wedding
but a multiple tiered cake was one of them.
And Stefan agreed that it just kind of added to the whole wedding-feel.
And also, we just love cake, and with multiple tiers we could have a different flavor of
cake on each tier.
So a few months before the wedding we planned out a date to go cake shopping in Germany,
and wow, I was definitely surprised by how it all went down.
As I said, we went into the cake shopping experience knowing that we wanted multiple tiers
-- I was thinking at least three, but I knew that I would probably be able to be talked
into four by the right salesperson -- we wanted a different flavor for each tier; we wanted
the cake to be colorful; and I wanted it to be covered in buttercream rather than fondant.
So first of all let's talk about my expectations going into this cake shopping day.
How would it work in the U.S.?
In the U.S. you would probably make an appointment at a cake shop for a tasting, where you'd
go in and talk with someone who works there, try a few different flavors of cake, a few
different options of frosting; we would tell the person what we were thinking as far as
the wedding cake goes and the person at the bakery would tell us that it's our big special
day and that they would work with us to create the cake of our dreams.
Sometimes this experience could also come with the tendency to try to up-sell in the U.S.
As I said before, I was thinking about three tiers but I could have been talked into four.
I had a soft top limit of what I wanted to spend, and I call it soft because I knew that
if the person at the bakery had offered this and that and this and that to create my wedding
cake of my dreams, I could have been talked into spending a little bit more.
I would mention, for example, wanting the cake to be colorful, and they would gladly
help me spend my money to make that happen as beautifully as possible.
What I experienced in Germany was...well...definitely not that.
First of all the concept of cake tastings seemed to be completely non-existent.
We were told that we could buy a slice of cake, whatever kind they happened to have
in the bakery that day and then imagine what it would be like in different flavors, which
was a little disappointing, but still okay.
But then, whereas in the U.S. I mentioned the up-sell, in Germany I was introduced to
a concept that, until then, had been wholly foreign and unknown to me: the down-sell.
I had imagined myself telling my wedding cake dreams to the salespeople and having them
help me create all that I could envision and more, but in Germany, I was barely able to
get out the first bit of information, that I wanted multiple tiers, when I was asked
how many guests we'd be having at the wedding.
When the salespeople found out that we were going to be having a small wedding, it was like:
oh, well then, I mean, you don't really need multiple tiers on your cake, just one layer will be
more than enough cake for your wedding.
And I was like: yeah no, I know that, but I want multiple tiers on my cake.
No, no, no, no.
You don't need multiple tiers.
But I want it.
No, you really don't need it.
But I really want multiple tiers for the wedding cake. Please!
In the end it really honestly felt like Stefan and I were barely, just barely able to convince
them to sell us a cake with three tiers, my minimum tier amount, and it just went on like that.
We said we wanted three different flavors -- one on each tier -- they tried to talk us
out of it because it would cost more!
We said we wanted it to be colorful, they tried to talk us into something cheaper and
less colorful.
I said I wanted buttercream frosting instead of fondant.
They flat out said no.
There was not a single bakery that I went to that said they would make the cake with
buttercream instead of fondant on the outside for me. They just refused it.
It just felt like, even once I got them to agree to the tiers and the flavor and the
color, I couldn't seem to get anyone to go all out like the cake decorations that
I've seen online and in wedding magazines in the U.S. Or, okay, if not all out then
even just a medium amount out.
It seemed like they were only willing to go just a tiny little bit out.
Even though I was willing to pay for it.
It was just such a different experience from anything that I was expecting.
Very practical.
And I had never experienced that before, that I was like I have some money here and I would
like to spend that money with you, and the salespeople were like: eeehhhh, but do you really?
And I don't know if it's because we were having a small wedding and so they didn't
think it was worth it for us to spend more money on a wedding cake.
But then, you know, that really wasn't their call to make.
It was for me and Stefan to decide if having this wedding cake of our dreams was worth
it to us.
We were the ones who had decided to cut back on other things because we wanted to have
a really cool cake.
And that was our decision to make, not the salespeople.
In the end, the cake cost way less than my soft maximum limit, and it did end up tasting
super delicious.
We got our three layers and our three different flavors and they were so good.
I don't know if I'd ever had better tasting wedding cake.
Although I might be a little bit biased. But it was definitely delicious.
And it was definitely a pretty cake, but it was not the wedding cake of my dreams and
then some.
We went to several different bakeries and talked with several different people, but
we just couldn't seem to convince anyone to accept our money and make us a wedding
cake of our dreams and then some. We just couldn't make it happen.
So my question for you is: What is your take on this?
Which kind of cake shopping experience would you prefer?
And what is your dream cake?
Not necessarily for a wedding or anything like that; just if you could have any cake
in the world, what kind of cake would you want to have?

Which Kills You Faster — Chemotherapy Or Cancer - Duration: 6:37.
Which Kills You Faster � Chemotherapy Or Cancer
by Edward Morgan
Science is now proving that chemotherapy actually causes cancer to spread throughout the body.
How will the hospitals and oncologists write it up? Will they say the patient died from
cancer or chemotherapy? That�s a rhetorical question, by the way.
The medical industrial complex can�t sustain their billion-dollar-a-year cancer business
if they blame the real culprit of destroyed immunity, acidic blood and ultimate cell mutation
that takes over the body of the patient.
According to the Pharma Death Clock, there have been over 17 million U.S. deaths caused
by chemotherapy since 2001, yet under 11 million deaths were caused by cancer itself, so what�s
wrong with this picture?
Consider this carefully: If you have much better odds of preventing and defeating cancer
by changing your diet to a plant-based food regimen, rather than polluting your entire
bloodstream with toxic chemotherapy, why isn�t this all-important food-lifestyle change the
mainstream method for treating cancer, and why isn�t it offered like a prescription?
Most Americans can�t handle the change � that�s why. They want their bacon, hot dogs, subs,
bagels, French fries, Starbucks specialty drinks, microwave meals and processed sweets,
and they want some or all of these every day. They�re literally addicted.
Consider that the combination of already having cancer and getting dosed with chemotherapy
and radiation after stressful surgeries compounds the problem.
Cancer is a mutation of your cells that causes them to multiply uncontrollably and then turn
and attack your good cells, your organs, and your vital tissues. Take a big guess now � what
is the main fuel for cancer cells?
Answer: Chemicals. There are dangerous, carcinogenic chemicals posing as additives, preservatives
and �excipients� in most conventional food, genetically modified foods, allopathic
medicine, vaccines, flu shots, tap water, personal care products, household cleaners,
gardening products, candles, air fresheners, pet care products, and the list goes on.
Prescription drugs, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation can all exacerbate cancer cell
growth
Once you become a �regular� consumer of prescription drugs for anxiety, pain, depression,
inflammation, arthritis, fibromyalgia, heart disease, high cholesterol and diabetes, once
again you are compounding the chemical onslaught daily.
You are creating more bad cells than good cells and you are depriving your good cells
of oxygen. That is the cancer recipe, my friends. Change the recipe and you change your odds
of beating cancer drastically!
So now, which kills you faster � chemotherapy or cancer? The answer is both. When combined
you only have a three percent chance of survival. That�s why 75 percent of doctors, surgeons
and oncologists would never take chemotherapy themselves nor recommend it for family members.
If Chemotherapy Fails 97% of the Time, Why Do Doctors Recommend it?
Want your BEST odds of preventing and defeating cancer? Look into these 10 natural remedies
with ZERO side effects!
Let�s just get a few things straight first, when it comes to good health. You don�t
have to eat meat to get enough protein. Milk does not build strong bones.
Fluoride does not prevent cavities or make your teeth stronger. Vaccines do not �build�
immunity. Artificial sweeteners do not help you lose weight. Prescription drugs do not
cure health problems, they only treat the symptoms and the pain.
Here are the top 10 ways to prevent and beat cancer, without chemotherapy, prescription
drugs, radiation or surgery.
Don�t you want to consider something natural that gives you WAY higher odds of survival
than just three percent? Yes, we thought you would.
#1. Put a heaping tea spoon of baking soda (aluminum-free kind) in a glass of spring
water, mix it up and drink it twice a day. This alkalizes your pH and helps oxygenate
your cells.
#2. Buy some hemp seed oil at the health food store and put a few teaspoons in your smoothie
every day.
#3. Buy organic garlic supplements and take them daily as recommended by a nutritionist
or naturopath doctor.
#4. Buy organic cinnamon supplements and take them daily as recommended by a nutritionist
or naturopath doctor.
#5. Ramp up your vitamin C intake big time. Look for organic vitamin C at a health food
store or check out the Health Ranger Store on line.
#6. Ramp up your vitamin D3 intake big time. Most medical doctors tell you to stop at 2,000
or 3,000 IU, but you should really ramp it up to between 5,000 and 7,000 IU per day if
your shadow is taller than you. This will build up your immunity. Get it?
#7. Buy high-quality turmeric with curcumin. Take them in tandem with your D3 and you won�t
just be preventing and beating cancer, but also preventing Alzheimer�s disease!
#8. Never drink water from your tap. Municipal water in the U.S. likely contains cancer-causing
sodium fluoride, other people�s medications, heavy metal toxins, bleach, artificial sweeteners
and other pollutants. Look into getting a great home water filtration system, like the
gravity filter called Big Berkey.
#9. Not many people in America know about the power of medicinal mushrooms � the first
line of defense against cancer. Check out chaga, reishi, lion�s mane and cordyceps.
#10. Organic green superfood smoothies with clean chlorella!
Now check out this video by Mic the Vegan regarding the power of plant-based food and
don�t get �scared away!�

HAVE YOU SEEN THE FUTURE - Duration: 11:55.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE FUTURE
BY Julian Rose
We have all come across claims, past and present, in which someone states that they have �seen
the future�.
Some of these claims make good reading/listening, even if they are predominantly apocalyptic
in nature.
Nostradamus is perhaps the most famous amongst such seers, and no doubt he really did visit
recent events on this planet during his lifetime in 16th century Europe.
His foretelling of the destruction of the twin towers (9/11) was a particularly chilling
example.
Some predictions carry with them a certain cache.
Those who are being told the scenario often fall silent, lean forwards and widen their
eyes.
A fair number take the proclamations seriously, and then tell their own versions of stories
that made an impression on them.
Thus, a wide range of projected pictures of the future � typically of the country one
lives in � are on display at any one time.
So one can pick and choose or simply reject them all.
But what exactly is going on here?
To make any sense of this, one needs to explore the practice behind what we call �the predictive�
and what we call �free will�.
The predictive involves following the sequences involved in the playing-out of major life
events largely outside our control.
Free will believes that the future is infinitely changeable, having the potential to be shaped
by us, and tied to a vision of where we want to go.
There are many other ways in which �seeing the future� can be experienced, but I don�t
propose exploring these in this article.
Instead, I wish to explore the historical line which shows how the power to manipulate
events on Earth was � and remains � in the hands of a small number of individuals
having the status necessary to take a controlling influence over large segments of humanity
for significant periods of time.
In regard to this scenario, we can clearly recognize the existence of a long line of
planned inter blood line marital agreements/breeding programmes, specifically established so that
the authority of the controlling power is maintained within one particular family grouping,
for decade after decade and century after century.
An interesting example of this is that every president of the United States, barring the
Dutch born Martin Van Buren (eighth president) is purported to have retained a blood tie
to British royalty, from George Washington onwards.
George the First of England is the root source of this unlikely family tree.
Now given that the ability to maintain wealth and position results from carefully planned
intermarriage agreements, it is not so surprising that these same families � and their chosen
accomplices � are able to pull the strings of world events.
In other words �to control the future�.
Think of the Rockefeller and Rothschild families involvement in funding both sides during the
two World Wars.
Now go on to think how, given the power and longevity of these fiefdoms, it became possible
to make a prediction about the coming course of events, following a quite logical pattern:
the further progression of the oligarchical master plan for humanity!
In Nostradamus�s time, the main controllers had their base in the Vatican and the royal
fiefdoms of old Europe.
Both no doubt worked with dark-side energies, through secret society networks entrusted
with keeping a line open to the darker powers that maintain a keen interest in the evolution
of our planetary activities.
So when Nostradamus witnessed the destruction of the twin towers of World Trade Center,
he saw a culmination point of a line of events planned by a combination of earthly and non
earthly powers, many centuries earlier.
Powers working on � and with � a vibratory level similar to that invoked by 33rd degree
Masons during ritualistic gatherings in Masonic Lodges around the World.
Taking all this into account, one could say that �predestination�, interpreted as
the foreseeable rolling-out of a planned formula by those with enough power over the people
to make it happen, has a very predictable logic, as well as a certain fatalistic attraction
for those feeling powerless to affect significant change to the master plan.
Predicting the future, when � like Aldous Huxley � you are coming from the inside,
is not so difficult.
One needs to know the composition of the master plan and its tools of execution.
And count on the fact that a combination of mind control and mass propaganda will keep
the general populace from transgressing the script.
The great majority of humanity has indeed followed the script � for thousands of years.
It has done so under a controlling influence operating at a manipulative level undetected
and unknown to most ordinary mortals.
One that does not, in any way, have humanity�s interests at heart; but that offers instead,
a predictable prison life which eventually becomes addictive � and even gives the illusion
of freedom.
In fact, one might say that the regime having its hands on the prison thermostat, doesn�t
have �a heart� at all; as love, compassion and empathy are completely missing from its
emotional composition.
The leading secular and non secular controlling institutions of our planet long since learned
how to tap into the dark energies; and how to utilize them for both the repression of
humanity�s spiritual aspirations and the garnering of special powers in support of
the cult of crass materialism.
Most of those on the receiving end of this despotic hierarchy, have misinterpreted the
role it plays in deliberately keeping them servile to its goals.
From the end of the dark ages and throughout the middle ages of European history, many
believed that their slavery was down to the fact that God was punishing them for their
�sins�.
Sins they had supposedly inherited from the �moral failures� of Adam and Eve in the
Garden of Eden.
Thus spoke the moral authority of the time: the church.
Right up until the present day such oppressive dogma holds sway over large sections of humanity;
encouraging fear and passivity, and blocking any potential for a people led uprising to
bring lasting change to the destiny of the planet.
The blood-line �royal fiefdoms� also exerted their own special control, via conscripting
young and able men into the vast armies trained to go to war with each other in the name of
the nation state from which they hailed.
However the real agenda was not nationalistic so much as materialistic; plundering other
country�s wealth for the benefit of the elite and its favored entourage.
Now read that paragraph again � substituting USA/NATO � for the royal fiefdoms.
Nothing has changed.
A triumphal glorification of the mother country � as rallying war cry � is a smoke screen
used to great affect for centuries.
However, not everything that went on within centuries of empire building � and empire
dismantling � was marked by a cold blooded disinterest in the fate of humanity.
Some kings, queens, princes and nobles, exerted some positive influence, by introducing reforms
to society which offered a glimmer of hope to those who served under them.
History recounts the various stepping stones that led to the European Renaissance, and
a gradual loosening of the old powers of slavery.
But none of this alters the fact that the majority of people on this planet � right
up to the present day � have never felt it to be within their power to set the agenda
for the future.
And that is critical.
Even those more enlightened souls who � in one way or another � have been able to light
the way for mankind, have not been able to break the spell of the preplanned agenda.
Predestination still overshadows free will, delaying the deep changes that would emancipate
humanity.
The 1% still hold the sword over the 99%.
The individual cases of �enlightenment� that do take place, take place within the
agenda of the existing status quo.
As we witness, even in the first two decades of the 21st century, the majority of people
still expect today�s fake �leaders� to do their bidding.
Still accept their role as slaves to �the system� with its overt imposition of mass
indoctrination and mind control.
An indoctrination all too often aided and abetted by the authoritative theology of the
church, and more recently, by the addition of global corporate elites.
Every year the master plan is renewed, as secretive Bilderberger sessions pull together
leading figure heads of corporations, scientific research, military, royalty and politics;
who tweak the top-down agenda in order to maintain the status quo, at whatever cost.
Broadly speaking, that is still where we are today.
So have you seen the future?
And if so, is it a future that has finally been prized free from the grip of relentless
psychopathic control freaks?
What action do you see yourself taking in relation to the shaping of oncoming events?
Here�s what I see � and it hovers in front of me � halfway chimera and half way reality.
I see that we are � at an admittedly still quite tentative level � actually sickening
of our Kali Yuga schooled desire �to have� and to conform; and that our new propensity
is moving us ever closer to a desire �to Be� and to cease to conform.
The more this inclination gains strength, the more we experience �being� as the
true expression of what it means to be human.
So different from the dead weight of the �having� mode.
A state of consciousness that lifts us out of our old serfdom, connecting-up past, present
and future and merging them into an inseparable continuum.
A quantum state of oneness with our indestructible divinity.
Here, in this place, what we see ahead of us is a projection of the vibrancy of the
now.
There is no preplanned future to suffocate our creativity.
All time is pulled into a vibrant ever expanding present, and we are in the driving seat of
change.
We �the people� are getting ever closer to gaining this insight and the illuminated
powers that go with it.
The future we collectively see, while in this state of oneness, is the future we will go
on to build.
It is a state of consciousness, that when experienced by a critical mass of individuals,
will finally collapse the age old status quo and all the heinous repression that goes with
it.
Although the war tainted darkness presses-in around us, a great awakening of humanity is
not far off.
An age of emancipation, in which we are able to break-free of our slavery and take a controlling
influence over our lives, as well as the health and welfare of our beleaguered planet.
At one with the very universal forces from which we were birthed in the first place.
So, onwards, onwards, fellow adventurers.
The answer to our calling is at hand.
The predestination master plan is shredding.
Our oppressors are loosing their grip on the reins of power; and with our active help � will
soon be in full retreat.
Their mission to conquer and enslave the spirit of man and of Earth, will be overcome, and
will end in abject failure.
Hail to that great day.

Principles of Muslim Prayer (The Contact Prayers) [EDITED] - Duration: 1:27:52.
Principles of Contact Prayer
GOD is great (repeated twice)
GOD is great (repeated twice)
GOD is great (repeated twice)
There is no god but GOD
Come and Pray (repeated twice)
Come and improve yourself
God is great (repeated twice)
There is no god but GOD (repeated twice)
In the name of GOD, most Gracious, most Merciful
My dear lucky viewer, peace be upon you
This tape will present to you how to observe the Contact Prayer.
The Salat.
And you are very lucky because you are trying to learn how to make contact with your creator.
Which is the greatest of all worship.
In this tape I will explain to you the meaning of the word Salat.
You already heard me call it contact.
The word Salat is an Arabic word derived from the root "SLH", which means connection, or contact.
So when you observe the Salat prayers, you make contact with your creator.
It is wrong to translate it as "pray".
As a Muslim, when you tell somebody "I pray five times a day"
That is the wrong expression, because other people can tell you: "I pray all day."
The correct expression for the Muslim is; "I make contact with my creator five times a day".
This is the meaning of Salat
In this program I will present to you where the Salat commandment come from.
The Contact Prayer is mentioned in Qur'an more than 70 times.
And I will show you the crucial verses.
Like where the times of Contact Prayers are mentioned in the Qur'an.
Then I will go on to, explain to you the source of the Contact Prayer.
When was the first time the Contact commandment come to us from GOD.
And how it has come to our generation.
I will explain this to you.
Then I will move on to explain why does GOD want us to establish contact with him.
Why does GOD command us to observe the Contact Prayers 5 times a day.
What is the reason?
Does GOD need the Contact Prayer, or do we need the Contact Prayer?
After this I will go on to explain every aspect of the Contact Prayer.
I am going to start with the call to the Contact Prayer; the Azaan.
I will go through the details, even the historical development of it.
I will show you how the words are written in English.
The English transliteration.
Then I will on to the preparation for the Contact Prayer, which is called "Wudu".
Or Ablution.
And of course my sources are always the Qur'an. There is only one source.
And it is this book right here; the Qur'ran.
GOD's message to you, to me and to the whole world.
This is GOD's final message to the world, and this is our source.
The only source.
THE CONTACT PRAYER WAS INITIALLY DECREED THROUGH ABRAHAM.
I will show you where the Wudu is mentioned in Qur'an, and what the details are.
Then I will demostrate for you how to do the Wudu
And I will move on from there to demonstrate for you, and describe in detail...
...how to do the 5 daily Contact Prayers.
The Morning (Dawn) Contact.
The Noon Contact.
The Afternoon; the Sunset; and the Night Contact Prayer.
I will explain also some of the fine details,
for example; what happens when you miss part of the Contact Prayer in a group.
You go to the Mosque and you see a group of people praying, you come in late...
...what to do?
And some other fine details.
So I hope this will cover everything you need to know about the Contact Prayer.
The most important worship in Islam.

EP055: Focus on the IDEA - The Difference Between "Understandable" and "Inevitable" - Duration: 8:52.
- Great ideas,
ideas that have the power to change the world,
aren't just found, they're built.
They're built piece by piece in our minds
until we have that what feels like sudden realization
that makes a new direction suddenly clear.
To make our ideas, that idea irresistible to somebody else
we have to do the same thing,
we have to build the idea piece by piece in their mind.
And that's what we're doing
in this little mini series here on Find the Red Thread.
In the last two episodes we went deep on the Problem,
the intractable, invisible problem of perspective
that stands in the way of the other piece, the Goal,
the irresistible outcome that awaits our audience
if they adopt our idea.
This week it's the Idea itself,
the idea behind the idea,
the thing that makes the Problem impossible to ignore
but also puts the Goal within the audience's reach.
That, I'd say, is pretty irresistible.
I'm Tamsen Webster of tamsenwebster.com
and that's what we're talking about this week
on Find the Red Thread.
(lively music)
If we have what we know
is an important solution or change to the world,
we have this big idea that we want to get out there,
it can be so tempting to skip right to it
especially if we've taken the time
to help people understand why it's so important
and so different.
We've taken the time to help people understand
that by adopting the solution
there's an outcome for them, that's the Goal.
If we've taken the time to help them understand
that there's this invisible intractable,
previously intractable problem that stands in the way,
then of course we say,
"We've done all that work
"shouldn't they automatically understand
"that this solution is the right one?"
They may if you skip right to it
but it won't yet be irresistible and here's why.
It's only when there's one other piece of information
that puts the problem and the Goal in conflict
will that solution that you want to put in front of them
become something that they can't ignore.
It becomes irresistible.
So, the goal that we have here
is to move our solution from being understandable
to feeling inevitable.
And to do that we have to find the idea behind our idea.
So, what is that idea behind our big idea?
Well, it can be a couple different things.
It can be a value or a belief or a discovery.
It can be some kind of fundamental truth
that someone believes about themselves or about the world.
For instance, a fundamental truth for me might be
I believe we have all the resources that we need.
A discovery might be that something
that we didn't previously think was possible was possible.
A belief might be that all people
are trying to do something good.
All of these things can classify
as the idea behind your idea.
So, how do you know that you found the right one,
the one that will turn your solution
into an inevitable one?
Well, here's the test.
We need to see whether or not
it makes the Problem impossible to ignore.
Now, here's what I mean.
If they understand and agreed
with this goal that you've set,
this irresistible outcome
and if they've understood and agreed
with this problem of perspective
that there's two ways to look at something
and they've only been looking at one;
and that by only looking at one
they've been missing something else.
Now when you introduce this third piece of information
it should make it impossible for them
to let that problem of perspective stand
because our brain can't stand that kind of gap.
Let me give you an example to make this more clear.
I worked with a wonderful speaker named Dheeraj Roy
on his TEDxCambridge talk,
and the topic of his talk was
how he and his lab at MIT was able to
recover the memories of early Alzheimer's mice.
Now, this would help us achieve
a very important and irresistible outcome
to help extend the normal life
of somebody with early Alzheimer's disease,
extend the period of time
where they could retain their memory
and interact with people the way that they always did.
Now, the problem that Dheeraj set up
was a problem of perspective.
Now, the perspective was how we looked
at memory in the first place.
See, as Dheeraj explained, we tended to think
that if somebody could tell us they had a memory
then that proved that it existed.
But if someone couldn't tell us they have a memory
then we assume the memory was gone.
But, Dheeraj thought to himself,
but what if that memory is like a book in the library
and this is his metaphor.
So if it's like a book in the library
what if it's not that the book is lost
but that we've somehow lost the connection
with how to find it.
For those of you with a certain age
we've somehow destroyed the card catalog,
the thing that helps us find the book in the first place.
So, that Problem against that Goal is interesting
and understandable but why we wouldn't want to solve it.
But the solution doesn't become inevitable
until we understand a third thing:
that through Dheeraj's work,
it's possible to strengthen that retrieval system,
it's possible to strengthen
how we recover memories in the first place.
With that piece of information in play
it means that if we want to extend
the normal life of somebody with early Alzheimer's
then it's impossible for us to ignore the fact
that we've only been looking at half of the equation.
We've only been looking at
whether or not the memory still exists.
We can't ignore the fact
that now that we know it's possible to
strengthen that retrieval mechanism;
we can't ignore the fact that we haven't been looking there
which makes the conclusion inevitable,
the Change inevitable.
The changes inevitable is that we need
to be spending more time figuring out
when, how and where to strengthen that retrieval mechanism
in order to achieve our irresistible outcome.
So, for you, the idea can be all sorts of different things.
It's always, I'm going to argue, hard to find
because it's going to be the most core assumption
underlying why you believe so strongly in your idea.
But a couple things that will help you find it:
First, test it.
Make sure that if it's true
that if somebody still wants the Goal
it makes the Problem impossible to ignore.
But second, make sure that it also
makes the Changes that you're going to recommend
be inevitable or feel inevitable.
That means that the solution,
the Idea that you come up with
has to have two very distinct qualities.
The first is that it needs to be descriptive.
There can't be any Change language in it.
It needs to be a statement,
an observation, a description of the world
or of people or of the person that you're talking to.
It is not an action, that would make it a change.
The first thing it has to be descriptive.
The second thing is that it needs to be neutral.
In Dheeraj's case it needed to be possible
for us to do this.
So, it doesn't mean that like one thing is good
and another thing is bad.
It needs to be a neutral statement
because as a neutral statement
it makes both the problem impossible to ignore
and the Change inevitable.
So, on this step to your irresistible idea
make sure that you put all three pieces in place.
Make sure you build those pieces of the Idea
in your audience's mind,
not just that irresistible outcome
and that intractable, invisible Problem,
but the Idea that makes both of those things
impossible to ignore and the Change,
the solution inevitable.
