    It’s time for us to gather together and question this old time myth.
    Who said great minds think alike?
    Doesn’t that put us in a narrow, suffocating box? If I think I am a great mind, and my contemporary thinks he/she is a great mind, and we don’t agree on something, does that diminish our greatness?
    If so, whos greatness is lessened? How to decide?
    So many questions.
    But the most important one – what are we doing to save ourselves from fire rachmana litzlan?

    Great minds think both alike and differently because they cover a large range of thoughts, some of which are different while others are the same.

    I’m real simple when it comes to this slogan. If someone appears to share my opinion, I make the observation that great minds think alike. If you think I’m arrogant, you have also seconded my own self-assessment. Once again, great minds think alike.

    LF,

    if they’re thinking ‘out of the the box” so isn’t that the same thing (or in other words “alike”)

    CA: Yes, but it isn’t suffocating, no danger of fire r”l (from our overheating central processing unit)

    What you’re saying it that there’s no such thing as out of the box; everyone thinks in a box, the only question is which one (and there are only two).

    “I was just thinking the same thing!”

    So I guess that you and PGY must both be great!

    I already knew you were anyhow! 🙂
    (Don’t know about PGY yet, since I don’t really “know” him yet, but I’m sure he is as well.)

    “What you’re saying it that there’s no such thing as out of the box; everyone thinks in a box, the only question is which one (and there are only two).”

    Not necessarily – it might be a question of what you mean by “thinking alike”.

    Why does everyone always assume that it’s better to “think out of the box”? And isn’t making that assumption a sign of “thinking in the box”, since most people make that assumption?
