Glossary

ghuD System

A system for tackling the quotidian- the day-to-day data... for the day. Optimal in its most ethereal form- a simple mental construct. Think of all ghuD Technology as training wheels for ghuD Persons to eventually operate completely independent of external devices/constructs.

Key Componenents Of A ghuD System:

Frames Of Mind

Love Live Learn Earn

Headspace Locations

Top Of Mind Front And Center Bottom Line Forgotten

ghuD

Great Heads Up Display- a tool to help one implement the ghuD System. A ghuD is meant to get ghuD Persons in, out and about- very simply and very quickly. Use it to get started, but don't be distracted from what truly matters- what is in front of you and behind the screen.

Person

Synonymous with a user, but ghuD Developers are people-first people, so person is preferred over user... to each their own. Important to note that the Perspective here is Reflective.

Headspace

Where the magic happens

May be likened to a Kanban filled with Thoughts- consider using Headspace Locations as stages and Frames Of Mind as lanes. It's a ghuD idea to keep this organized and full- but only enough so that one may end each day with it cleared. It's very important to keep the Theory Of Constraints in mind.

Suggested readings:

The Phoenix Project The Goal

Thought

May be likened to a task. These fill one's Headspace until cleared- an experience of joy when done so, especially expeditiously.

Vibe

Signals sent from one soul to another.

Brain Freeze

A portrait of a Soul

Muse

A collection of Brain Freezes From Wikipedia: The word muse is also sometimes used for a person who inspires somebody else, or any other type of inspiring object. Muse can also be used to describe one's creative thoughts, such as poetry or a musical composition.

Soul

A person or Person that is not oneself.

You don't have a soul, Doctor. You are a soul. You have a body, temporarily.

Scoop

A summary of your Headspace
