The article is absolutely brilliant! A great German researcher, H. Arne Maus once said: “the complex things become complicated when we don’t approach them with the proper attention”. Such a complex thing is human persoanlity, which DOES work through a set of patterns. But the combionations, the distinctions, the NUANCES are so fine and complex that in our tendency to simplify, to generalize, to distort, we underachieve to understand. And Jack Trout in one of his greatest books, “The Power of Simplicity” explains how the human mind can go so far from the truth believing it understands thin gs by making them complicated.

Ok, I’ll admit it: I’m envious. I’m too lazy to work this much to make my blog look this good and be this useful. You can start considering yourself a classic because I’ll be quoting you in no time…
It’s also nice to see you made a lot of progress from your earlier entries and now that it’s more structured and focused it’s a lot easier to follow.
Keep up the great work!!!
