Understanding
It is clear that it is hard to explain where our own understandings come from, to convince others to accept our understandings we have developed and as well to accept the understandings others have formulated. However, do individuals who utilize multiple sources of understanding (intuition, experimental and unconscious) more likely to accept and be flexible towards different people being able to come about different understandings of the same thing? Or is it possible that such a combination of understandings creates frustration and conflicts, much like those that occur already for people who don’t follow or accept the understandings that others have? Does leadership require all three types? Why is simple logic sometimes hard to grasp? (For example in the MHD experiment). Is it because of a cognitive overload or overthinking being done or is it just one of the common approaches taken for understanding which someone selects, some approaches being more adaptive than others in given situations? How much does awareness and intuition interact/conflict with each other?
