N*sync

[DarkColoredLight]

Now, you're probably wondering how this mid-ninties boy band comes into play with philosophy. So I guess I have no choice but to elaborate.

 

N*SYNC is just the name of the boy band at hand. The name, a cleaver set of letters, coming from the last letter in each members first name. To abbreviate "in-synchronization." "Their" dancing, timing, and vision of what will sell is what, I believe, made them a success. Not to mention that the music industry was on their side. Dispite that fact, they had something going for them, other than their good looks, presentation, and awful lyrics. What they had was their name. Better yet, the idea of the name. In synchronization.

 

You see, synchronization can be found in just about any thriving profession. Take professional sports for an example. In just about any team sport; striking, pitching, passing, intercepting, and/or catching the "ball," has huge advantages on scoring with the "ball." On the same note it can be very tricky considering the circumstances at hand. Factors may include but aren't limited to; weather, lighting (or lack of), people (opposing team, referee, unintended teammates), in (and out of) game obstacles, out of bounds, etc etc.

Before you come to the decision of releasing said "ball," you must ask these questions to yourself;

Who/What/Where is the intended target?

Where will the intended target be at the time of recieving?

Who/What is/might be obstucking the path of said "ball" and said target upon release, journey, and finally reception?

Are you, and the target, in a position to complete the task at hand?

Are they the best target out of all your options? Or anti-option; killing time or just not releasing.

 

I don't believe I have, or want, to expand further the system of throwing and catching a ball. Most humans learn the skill at a early age. But, I believe those to be the basic structure.

 

Upon repatition of this system, or the application of many everyday systems, you gain a six sense about the whole thing. After that you just start playing the game. Knowing exactly how to win, knowing all your options, and using instinct to make the right decision. Real winners are the one's that not only know how to win. But, know how to not to lose, but that's a different thread entirly, right Mr. Pres. George Washington?

 

With all this childs play, what am I trying to get at?

 

Well if synchronization is a key factor in news, sports, weather, travel, love, war and among other spectrums; couldn't it be key factor in evolution?

 

Of course, at the base of synchronization there is time. Right next to repetition or practice, if you will. Although, it would take the ablity to "read minds," better yet read actions, to be in perfect syncopation with the world and all of it's surroundings. Isn't that, along with anything, possible? At least with a whole lot of practice and even more luck? Because who's kidding who, the world isn't just going to flow smoothly just because someone thinks it can. Or can it?

 

Something to practice about.

We're synchronizing right now,

 

The internet is helping us all evolve

 

@ once.

I think this image speeks for my thoughts.

 

 

I'm talking real time synchronization.

True, the internet, along with writen and spoken word helps with the synchronization era. But, it would take alot of time to be in the middle of the game and have to explain yourself to every teammate, hoping to get NSYNC by the end of the game.

 

In football it would look like:

A "Hey, I have the ball."

B "Cool, give it to me I can score from here."

C "No, pass it to me, he has an opposing teammate to the right of him obstrucking the path of the ball, along with to his left is the out-of-bounds. Therefore you should pass it to me."

A "Actually, there is an opposing teammate running towards me at full speed, so I am just going to try to run. If that does not work I will have to just throw the ball to a unoccupied area of play."

 

They just know who is on, off, and not on their team. They know and go.

 

Internet is just another form of the ever popular "huttle."

So pretty much, in order to have this mind reading ability we would have to:

 

Be honest with ourselfs.

Let our actions speek louder than our words.

 

Cliche, but useful in a evolutionary sense.
