Personal essay, almost completely unsourced and much original research with heavy use of WP:Synthesis per WP:No original research. What's left when you remove the essay and reflection is already covered in lateral thinking. Prod contested by anonymous editor. Gurt Posh (talk) 16:23, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

delete per nom, per !voting other editors, and per fact that this borders on wp:nonsense anyway. — Alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 18:42, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The purpose of thinking is to collect information and use it in the best possible manner. The mind works to create fixed patterns from the surroundings, after which they can be used, and they become firmly established. Thus, the mind provides a special environment for information to organize itself effectively. The presence of vertical thinking and lateral thinking also suggests that this may be a content fork, although those articles are not much better than this one. No prejudice to creating and unifying all of those articles somewhere, and this title may be the logical place. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 18:48, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
