A Wise Slogan
A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
It is the slogan of the US United Negro College Fund since 1972, and recently mentioned again by Prof. Peter Doherty. Moreover, Prof. Doherty emphasized in his article, "With a population of only 21 million, can we afford to waste a single, talented person?"
I happen to read across this article and this slogan. They shocked me because I was just writing my newest post about mind asset. This is a brilliant slogan and so is the comment made by Prof. Doherty. We indeed cannot afford to waste any single person. In fact, nobody is not talented. Everybody is just talented in different way. Mind asset is the most valuable wealth in the world but being overlooked for long time. We need to change this situation.

yes... but a slight modification in the idea of mind helps identify an action step or two ...
mind, not only as ego-based generator of ideas unique to itself, but as conduit ... clear mind open to intuition and pure consciousness
education gets the first part, the clarity thing is even more important, and what blocks clarity is not being looked at...
attitudes, self-limiting beliefs, ego-based posturing, drugs, false values, these are just some of the things that block mind from being free to apprehend reality, for anybody
