Countdown to the End of the World: An End-Time Prediction That Caused Israel to Make a Big Mistake
The countdown of end-of-the-world events in the book of Luke was uttered by two prophets. The first was proclaimed by John the Baptist in his famous wilderness sermon, and the second was trumpeted by none other than Jesus Christ Himself from the crest of Olivet to the listening ears of His disciples. Both predictions dramatically chronicled the central object of the Christians' hope - the Second Advent.

The Behind-The-Scenes Secret Leading To End Times Apostasy
Paul to the Thessalonian church, nervous that the end times wrath of God had already begun, explains the behind-the-scenes secret that will lead to the apostasy (falling away) of the church and many believers. This was his attempt to prove that the coming of the Lord was not near in their time. However the events that Paul explains must happen before the coming of Christ, are now prevalent in today's society.

How to Stop an Affair With Your Boss - End Your Affair at Work

How to Stop an Affair With Your Boss - End Your Affair at Work
No matter what your reason is, whether you really like the guy or you love the attention, you must end the affair. You are destroying a happy home. Think of his wife and children.
How to Stop an Affair With Your Boss - End Your Affair at Work
The most difficult part in ending your affair with your boss is that he has control over your career. He can easily find ways to fire you or make your life miserable. If you do not stop your relationship with your boss as soon as possible, there might come a point where you are going to choose between your job and your family. Below are tips on how to stop an affair with your boss:
Tell Him Directly and Honestly - Make your boss understand that what you are doing is wrong and you want to end it. Even though you really like him, tell him that you want your relationship to be over.
Bring a Friend or Do it on the Phone- If you are afraid to tell him that you want to end your affair, bring a friend along with you who understands your situation. Your friend can also give you encouragement in case you want to back out. Ending your affair over the phone is also very effective because your boss cannot try to convince you on staying.
Cut All Communications - You have shared a lot of good moments and you enjoyed every minute with him. But remember the reasons why you ended the affair in the first place. You can also ask a friend to tell your lover not to contact you again. You should also start thinking of your future and your family if you have one.

WHAT IS APOSTASY - A falling away, a withdrawal, a defection from the faith, a forsaking of the Lord.
Came To An End
The Behind-The-Scenes Secret Leading To End Times Apostasy
TWO THINGS WILL SIGNAL THE ARRIVAL OF THE END TIMES
The Behind-The-Scenes Secret Leading To End Times Apostasy
As described in 2 Thessalonians 2, the Thessalonians were troubled and shaken because of what the false teachers were saying about the coming of Christ. He tells them not to be alarmed, for the day of God's wrath has not yet arrived. Two things will signal it's arrival: First there must come a specific "falling away", and the anti-Christ will be revealed as described in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;"
Paul goes on to state that these two events will not reach fulfillment until that which "letteth . . . be taken out of the way" as described in verse 7 occurs. Complete apostasy will not be fulfilled until God has taken the Christians from the earth and the Holy Spirit influence no longer restrains lawlessness. This will allow the anti-Christ to enter this world. He will reveal himself three and one half years into the tribulation when he proclaims himself to be God. However the Holy Spirit will remain on earth to convict people of their sins, convert them to Christ, and empower them.
"MYSTERY OF INIQUITY"
2 Thessalonians 2:7 "For the 'mystery of iniquity' doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way."
Throughout the entire church age, a "mystery of iniquity" is at work, reminding us that the end is coming. Evil will become progressively worse as history draws to a close.
The "mystery of iniquity" is a secret or a behind-the-scenes activity of evil powers throughout the course of human history, preparing the way for apostasy and the anti-Christ. Read today's headlines and you can see an attempt to eliminate God from all areas of society and even the church.
It is a deceitful process that entraps unbelievers and prepares many within the church to turn from true faith and to accept the lie embodied in the apostate church. It involves a spirit or movement against true Biblical faith and divine law; it seeks to gain freedom from moral restraint and to take pleasure in sin.
Though this spirit existed already in Paul's day, it will be especially prevalent in the world and in Christianity toward the end of the age.
2 Timothy 4:3-5
"For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry."
The "mystery of iniquity", the behind-the-scenes activity of evil powers will increase until it reaches its climax in the completion of and disregard for any standards and commandments held sacred in the Bible. Because of a prevailing spirit of lawlessness, the love of many will grow cold. Yet a faithful remnant will remain loyal to the apostolic faith as revealed in the N.T. (Rev 2:7). Through these faithful people, the church will remain a warrior church, wielding the sword of the Spirit until it is taken out of the world.
CHURCH APOSTASY
The "falling away" within the church will have two dimensions:
THEOLOGICAL APOSTASY
Theological apostasy is the departure from and rejection of a part or all of the original teachings of Christ and the apostles. False leaders will offer salvation and cheap grace and ignore Christ's demand for repentance, separation from immorality, and loyalty to God and his standards. False gospels centering on human desires, needs, and goals of self-interest will become popular. One is hard pressed to find a church that teaches the true word and promotes social activism.
MORAL APOSTASY
Moral apostasy is the severing of one's saving relationship with Christ and returning to sin and immorality. Apostates may proclaim right doctrine and N.T. teaching. Yet abandon God's moral standards. Many churches will tolerate almost anything for the sake of numbers, money, success, and honor. The gospel of the cross with it's call to suffer reproach from the world (Phil 1:29), to radically renounce sin, to sacrifice for the kingdom of God, and to deny one's self will become rare.
PERSONAL APOSTASY
Hebrews 3:12 "Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God."
To apostatize means to sever one's saving relationship with Christ or to withdraw from vital union with the true faith in Him. Thus, individual apostasy is possible only for those who have first experienced salvation, regeneration, and renewing by the Holy Spirit.(Hebrews 6:4-6)
Paul mentions the Antichrist, not necessarily to help us recognize him, but to urge us to ready ourselves for anything that might threaten our faith. If our faith is strong, we need not be afraid of what lies ahead. Our task is to be ready for Christ and to spread the Good News so others will be prepared also.
2 Timothy 4:3-5 "But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry."

This isn't the reality for some women though. Sometimes, the husband isn't sure if he wants to end the affair. For whatever reason, he sometimes isn't sure if wants to let the other person go. Sometimes he is honest and forthcoming about this and sometimes he isn't. Some men will tell you that they are ending the affair when they really aren't. It won't be until later that you find out that they've continued to carry on with the other woman as though nothing has changed.
Came To An End
What Not To Do When Trying To Get Your Husband To End His Affair
Many wives, quite understandably, become very frustrated with this situation because they feel a huge lack of control. Many want to save their marriages (despite their husband's behavior) but they aren't sure how this is going to be possible when he refuses to end the affair. Many ask me how they can force his hand so to speak and get him to let her go once and for all.
What Not To Do When Trying To Get Your Husband To End His Affair
I often hear comments like "how can I get my husband to end the affair? The other woman works with him and he sees her every day. He just doesn't seem willing to let her go, even though he says he still loves me and isn't ready to end our marriage. She seems to have some pull over him that I can not figure out and over come. But I'm not sure how to play this. Part of me wants to give him an ultimatum, but I'm afraid that if I did this, he'd simply walk away. Is there anything that I should be doing or that I shouldn't do?"
In the following article, I'll discuss what I consider to be the things that you shouldn't do (and want to avoid) when you're trying to get your husband to end the affair, come back to you, and save the marriage.
Why You Don't Want To Give Your Husband Either / Or Ultimatums: I know that this is usually the first card that the wife will want to play. This is very tempting because if you tell your husband that it's her or you, then the idea is that he will HAVE to make a decision - and hopefully he will make this decision very quickly. Many wives want to sit him down and tell him that he has a set deadline to decide if he's going to go with the other woman or stay with the wife. The wife will usually stress that once this decision is made, there is no going back. She'll tell him that he has to decide and he has to decide right now.
Believe me when I say that I understand the logic behind this strategy. You are trying to force him to come to a decision and you're hoping that your history with him (and the decency inside of him) will mean that he chooses you. However, this isn't always what ends up happening. Sometimes, rather than allowing himself to be forced or rushed into making a decision, the husband will just tell the wife that if this is the line she's drawn in the sand, then he'll have to bow out. Often, he just isn't sure what he wants and being forced into making up his mind seems like a worse alternative than indecision.
I often hear from men in this situation who say things like "my wife demanded that I chose between her or the other woman. At the time, my head was messed up, I was confused, and I just didn't know what I wanted and so I chose the other woman simply because my wife wouldn't give me any more time. We aren't together anymore. I wish I had chosen my wife but she wouldn't give me any leeway. Perhaps if she had been a little more patient, we would still be married today. But the ultimatum actually made things worse."
Now, by saying this I certainly don't mean that you should allow your husband to have a relationship with both you and the other woman. This isn't acceptable either. But the compromise for that would be to tell your husband that you can't have an intimate relationship with him while he still has a relationship with the other woman. This just isn't acceptable to you. While he is having a relationship with her, then your relationship will certainly not be an intimate one. However, when he comes to a decision and hopefully decides that he wants to be with you and only you, then those circumstances might change.
Resist Trying To Elicit Negative Feelings In Your Husband (Like Guilt, Shame, Or Embarrassment:) As a wife who was cheated on, I suspect I know what you're feeling right now. I know that you find your husband's behavior absolutely deplorable. I know that you think he should be ashamed by and guilty for his actions. And I also know that it's very tempting to point this out to him, especially when you're trying to convince him to give her up.
Many women will try phrases like "how could you do this to our family?" Or "look at you carrying on like an insecure old man in the middle of a mid life crisis. When are you going to return to reality and realize that you're betraying someone who has always been there for you and has loved you for more years than you care to admit? You are jeopardizing everything we have worked for because of some passing phase with some low quality tramp."
And he may well deserve to hear this. These phrases could and probably are true. But, the thing is, he doesn't want to hear this when he is so unsure about himself. He likely hears this in his own head coming from his own voice. He may not show the guilt and shame he's feeling, but deep down, it is very likely there. But if you keep trying to make him feel even more badly about himself, he is likely to associate this negativity with you and it could affect his decision as to whether to end the affair.
With All These Don'ts, What Can I Safely Do To Get Him To End The Affair?: Admittedly, you can not control his feelings and his actions right now, but you can control your own. You can take the high road and work on your own well being and recovery right now. And you can take a look at the statistics about affairs lasting (the odds aren't very good) and know that if you bide your time and paint yourself in the most flattering and dignified light, you will often win this battle.
But sometimes, you have to give it a little time and you have to allow him to come to these realizations himself. Many men do come to realize that they acted in stupid and embarrassing ways and they are sorry. But if you try to force these realizations on him before he comes to these conclusions himself, he may resent or even distance himself from you when this isn't what you want.

What To Do During An Earthquake

Prepare For Disaster - End of the World 2012 - What to Do in an Earthquake
If outdoors, stay right where you are and never go indoors, however moving away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires. Most earthquake-related deaths result from collapsing walls, shards of glasses, and falling objects, so stay out in the open. If, unfortunately, you were inside a building or your house at the moment of the end of the world 2012, your safest choice is to drop to the ground and to take cover under a sturdy table, still staying away from walls and falling objects.
Prepare For Disaster - End of the World 2012 - What to Do in an Earthquake
What To Do During A Tsunami
Prevention is better than cure here, so better turn on the radio or TV to learn if there is a tsunami warning or if there is an earthquake and you are residing near a coastal area. If you learn that a tsunami is coming, move inland, preferably to higher ground, and stay there. Stay away from the beach and don't ever go down there just to watch a tsunami land in. It's the last thing you will ever get to watch. Then again we're talking about the end of the world 2012 here, so it really wouldn't matter if you're that reckless.
What To Do During A Volcanic Eruption
If December 21, 2012 is really terribly close to the current date, and you are residing in an area near volcanic activity, then your best option is to flee from that area before December 21, 2012. This end of the world 2012 apocalypse hands us the benefit of a chance to prepare for it, although to what extent this will be useful, that we cannot be sure. Regardless, as soon as you see potential elements for catastrophe, such as a volcano, evacuate. Wear long-sleeved shirts and pants, and use a dusk mask. When escaping a volcanic eruption, avoid river valleys and low-lying areas because lava can easily flow through these passages. Lastly, be aware of mudflows, because they can move faster than you can walk or run and it will surely do harm to you.
What To Do During A War, An Asteroid Collision, A Solar Flare Event or Nuclear Warfare
Well, the first thing you really have to do here is pray that the place of impact of these events isn't at your current location, because if you encounter any of this at point-blank, there is very little chance of survival. If, for example, a collision with an asteroid occurred (but thankfully not near your home), the best thing to do is seek for government protection. They are the only ones who can have a feasible solution for these sorts of disasters. Some privately-funded companies have also created underground bunkers that claim to have resistive abilities with these sorts of catastrophes, so you can also check that out.
Surely these tips are not the whole walk around the park... There are still other guidelines out there for other specific disasters such as hurricanes, storms, and the like. You can find other tips on survival through eBooks and the internet.
A serious word of precaution: Don't ever think that all of this will happen one by one, or it is just a single catastrophic event. The Doomsday prophecies made it clear that every method of destruction will occur on December 21, 2012, mercilessly, simultaneously. The ground will tremble, the core of the earth will spew out fire, the waters will rage with floods TOGETHER. So surely, these tips do not cover even half of what you should do for survival. We can only pray that the end of the world 2012 isn't going to come, but that's hoping for the best. The end of the world 2012 is the worst case that we're gonna have to deal with once it becomes true and real.

Believe me when I say that I understand the logic behind this strategy. You are trying to force him to come to a decision and you're hoping that your history with him (and the decency inside of him) will mean that he chooses you. However, this isn't always what ends up happening. Sometimes, rather than allowing himself to be forced or rushed into making a decision, the husband will just tell the wife that if this is the line she's drawn in the sand, then he'll have to bow out. Often, he just isn't sure what he wants and being forced into making up his mind seems like a worse alternative than indecision.
I often hear from men in this situation who say things like "my wife demanded that I chose between her or the other woman. At the time, my head was messed up, I was confused, and I just didn't know what I wanted and so I chose the other woman simply because my wife wouldn't give me any more time. We aren't together anymore. I wish I had chosen my wife but she wouldn't give me any leeway. Perhaps if she had been a little more patient, we would still be married today. But the ultimatum actually made things worse."
Now, by saying this I certainly don't mean that you should allow your husband to have a relationship with both you and the other woman. This isn't acceptable either. But the compromise for that would be to tell your husband that you can't have an intimate relationship with him while he still has a relationship with the other woman. This just isn't acceptable to you. While he is having a relationship with her, then your relationship will certainly not be an intimate one. However, when he comes to a decision and hopefully decides that he wants to be with you and only you, then those circumstances might change.
Resist Trying To Elicit Negative Feelings In Your Husband (Like Guilt, Shame, Or Embarrassment:) As a wife who was cheated on, I suspect I know what you're feeling right now. I know that you find your husband's behavior absolutely deplorable. I know that you think he should be ashamed by and guilty for his actions. And I also know that it's very tempting to point this out to him, especially when you're trying to convince him to give her up.
Many women will try phrases like "how could you do this to our family?" Or "look at you carrying on like an insecure old man in the middle of a mid life crisis. When are you going to return to reality and realize that you're betraying someone who has always been there for you and has loved you for more years than you care to admit? You are jeopardizing everything we have worked for because of some passing phase with some low quality tramp."
And he may well deserve to hear this. These phrases could and probably are true. But, the thing is, he doesn't want to hear this when he is so unsure about himself. He likely hears this in his own head coming from his own voice. He may not show the guilt and shame he's feeling, but deep down, it is very likely there. But if you keep trying to make him feel even more badly about himself, he is likely to associate this negativity with you and it could affect his decision as to whether to end the affair.
With All These Don'ts, What Can I Safely Do To Get Him To End The Affair?: Admittedly, you can not control his feelings and his actions right now, but you can control your own. You can take the high road and work on your own well being and recovery right now. And you can take a look at the statistics about affairs lasting (the odds aren't very good) and know that if you bide your time and paint yourself in the most flattering and dignified light, you will often win this battle.
But sometimes, you have to give it a little time and you have to allow him to come to these realizations himself. Many men do come to realize that they acted in stupid and embarrassing ways and they are sorry. But if you try to force these realizations on him before he comes to these conclusions himself, he may resent or even distance himself from you when this isn't what you want.

When you decide you are going to come up with a brilliant invention idea, you are planning an invention; this is different from having an epiphany one day. Well, if you are interested in inventing, then you have come to the right place, here is an article to get you started and generally guide you through the invention process. The first step in coming up with a profitable invention idea is identifying a problem in society.
Came To An End
How to Come Up With a Profitable Invention
Finding a Problem
How to Come Up With a Profitable Invention
First, you have to find a problem. What is a problem? I think most everyone knows what a problem consists of, especially a problem when we are on the subject of inventing. A problem is anything that hinders one from reaching a desired goal or object. There are problems all throughout our society, as you know. You probably encounter around 20 problems a day and most likely openly complain about half of them. Up until now you haven't noticed when you did this, but going through day to day life as a human is your number one supplier for good problems. Listen to yourself, when you complain think about if it could be fixed with a nice invention. It's hard to be focused enough to notice when you complain or see a problem; however, with some practice, it starts to become more noticeable. Also, I recommend carrying around a little journal or using a phone to document these ideas when they come to you.
When looking to identify a problem there is also another resource that is readily available - people around you. This might include your co-workers, friends, family, etc. People naturally complain, you hear this every day, and up until now you thought it was a bunch of annoying non-sense. Everyone thinks it's stupid and unproductive; I have read many psychologists explain people complaining as being some kind of human emotional need for love or some other bull crap. Well, I have developed my own explanation for why people complain. People complain in order to make advancements. People locate problems and vocalize the need for the problem to be solved, thus we have an invention idea or advance in technology. So, listen to the people around you, they will tell you problems they have in their lives. This can be even harder to do then listening to yourself, because we have been conditioned to not pay attention to people complaining.
The internet is a great source for information, use it. People have a problem; they post it on the internet. This is similar to listening to people around you, it's just people that are farther away. There are thousands of blogs and forums where people have jumped on the internet and posted a problem they are having. Go on Google and search for household problems or something along those lines and you will surely find something. Also, as I talk about later, a great problem to identify is one that causes death; therefore, it could be beneficial to search online for things that are causing a death toll every year. If you start to master using these three sources of information for identifying problems, then you will soon have too many problems to remember.
Is the Problem Common?
Just so there is no confusion, you do want the problem you identify to be common. You don't want to be the only person having that problem, or else the invention idea you come up with to solve that problem will only be useful to you. There are a couple of simple ways to decide whether a problem is common:
1. Ask people you know. Talk to your friends, co-workers, family, and just anyone you know and see on a regular basis. Ask them if they have the same problem. You don't have to tell them you are thinking about coming up with an invention idea to solve it, just ask, "Man, I hate it when (blank) happens. You ever have that problem?" This is a simple way to see if a problem is common without telling people about your inventing plans.
2. Again, use the internet! If the problem is common, then a thousand people have already posted about it on the internet. Do a search on Google, and see if the problem turns out to be very popular.
3. Last, you can hold a survey. Go to a place that consists of a lot of people whose attention you can get, such as school, and ask them to raise their hand if they have this problem. This can be a little more intimidating to some people, and it will definitely reveal you are up to something. That being said, it is a great way to get fully submerged in your project.
Don't take this step lightly; it is very important that your problem is common. A profitable invention idea has to appeal to a large amount of people.
Has the Problem Already Been Solved?
Obviously, this is also a very crucial thing to recognize. Solving a problem is going to do you no good if there is already something that solves it. So, you have to do a little research to verify that your problem is free for you to solve. As you would probably guess, a great place to start is the internet. At this point you have probably already searched for your problem on the internet, so hopefully if it is obvious that it has been solved, then you would have already noticed. I would do a more detailed search to make sure you didn't miss anything the first time.
Next, it would be wise to do a patent search. You can do a patent search online at the USPTO's website or with a patent attorney. I would recommend just searching online as it will be cheaper and easier. Searching for a problem rather than an invention is pretty difficult, so it may take a while. Also, you can try searching an obvious invention idea that applies to that problem for better results.
Also, I find it helps a lot to ask around. A lot of times someone will say something like "I think I have heard about something that does that," or something along those lines. Don't forget the value of people.
Is Solving the Problem Viable?
The ultimate question: is the problem going to be profitable to solve? There is no definite answer to this question. There are many things to consider once you have made it to this question.
- Does it save people money? This is a big one. People love products that can pay for themselves. We are also in the midst of an economic recession, so people are always looking for ways to save money. If you are shooting to save people money, there is one important thing to consider; your invention has to be very cost efficient. People don't want to hear that your product will pay for itself in five years, they want quick results.
- Does it save people time? The average person hates spending time on things they don't enjoy. People want to get back to their free time, so saving them time can be very appealing. Over the years time has become quite important to us for many reasons.
- Does it create comfort or entertainment? This is a very hard thing to consider, because it is very opinionated; therefore, it requires you to make a judgment call. Some people get comfort or entertainment from different things, so if you choose to take this route, you have to be sure your invention will apply to lots of people. If you are going to attempt to tackle this, I would recommend doing extra research, online and in surveys.
- Does it save lives? This is another big one, and leads to very profitable invention ideas. There is always going to be a great way to market an invention that saves lives. I would definitely recommend going down this path.
- Does it help people who are hindered? This is a broad category and almost goes with saving lives. There are many things that hinder people such as allergies, diseases, physical limitations, etc.
- Would people pay for this problem to be solved? To really answer this take some thought. You have to consider many variables. You have to kind of start to think about how much an invention to solve this problem would cost and if that amount of money is worth solving the problem. You have to also consider the economic state of your consumers. For example, in today's economy people are spending a lot less money, but you can do some research and find articles to find out what people are still spending money on. The worst thing is to have a great invention, but not be able to make money due to a lack of research at this step.
Now you should have a favorable problem to solve; you are on your way to a profitable invention idea.
Research
At this point you should have a problem that you are interested in solving. You have hopefully already done some research on your problem; however, the research has just begun. This will be a very easy step to skip or not fully commit to, but it is very important for a couple of reasons. You need to research your project thoroughly in order to be equipped to start to solve it. Make sure you know every single thing about your problem; read books, read magazines, read the internet, and anything else that could possibly educate you about your problem. I realize most people don't enjoy reading, and want to skip straight to pioneering the best invention of the last ten years, but inventing is a tedious process if it is done correctly. Most great inventions took years to fully develop, and I don't think we can even fathom how much research these inventors did, because I guarantee you they didn't just sit and think for ten years. Doing research will help you to engineer a solution, but it also serves another purpose. Doing research helps to completely submerge you in your invention; it causes you to think constantly about your problem and increases your urge to uniquely solve it. If you are truly interested in inventing I would strongly advise you to do plenty of research.
Uncovering an Invention Idea
Use Problem Solving
All problems require problem solving; however, some are easier to solve then others. An invention requires a high level of problem solving; this is why it is hard for most people to come up with a unique invention. Some people are naturally good at problem solving and they can solve problems with ease, but there are many people who have developed ways to teach people how to solve problems. There are many great sites and books that give full lessons in problem solving and I would recommend checking some out. I am going to outline a couple of things that I think are important to problem solving in inventing.
- Completely simplify the problem. It is easy to look at the problem and get caught up in the complexity of solving it, and this can discourage you. Take the problem you have identified and find the underlying cause. You want to have a simple problem in order to have the simplest solution. Simple inventions are generally very profitable.
- Change the setting of your problem. This might be difficult to understand, so I will give you an example. Let's say your problem is getting in the shower and then realizing you forgot to get then new shampoo bottle and now you are all wet. Change the setting from a shower to your car; remembering to get a new pack of gum to put in your before you leave to go on a hot date. Doing this will allow you to look at the problem from multiple angles. Don't be afraid to do this several times for several different settings.
Problem solving is about solving a problem by using logic and using techniques to enhance your logic. However, logical problem solving isn't the only way to go about solving your problem; you should also consider the abstract side of pinpointing ideas, which I will talk about next.
Imagination
Imagination is built almost completely around vision. Vision contains two elements, one of which is often overlooked. The first part of vision is the retina receiving light rays and sending them to the brain, this is this part of vision that everyone is familiar with. The second part, what happens after this, is the part that relates the most to imagination. The part of vision where the brain interprets the information from the retina varies from person to person. How the brain perceives the information it receives from the retina is based mostly on past experiences, and there are experiments that prove this. Therefore, if imagination takes place when the brain perceives the information, and the way the brain perceives information is based on past experience, then imagination is limited by experience. That might have seemed like a stretch, but think about this. When you are a kid your imagination is free flowing and untamable, but when you get older and gain experience your imagination begins to dwindle.
How does this apply to inventing?
Most of the great inventions that end up turning over a large profit or changing the world result from an invention idea that is completely ludicrous to the average person. This means the key ingredients to a successful inventor are a loose imagination and the ability to creatively solve a problem. In today's inventing world many inventors have a background in engineering. I have been in engineering classes where they have taught me "how to invent". They do this by rolling out 12 steps of how to come up with a perfect invention idea, each step instructs you exactly how to proceed and think. Well, I think if inventing could be written in 12 steps to a perfect invention idea, then everybody would be coming up with outstanding inventions. You and I both know everyone isn't inventing the next best thing. This is because being the next Walt Disney isn't achieved by following a 12 step equation.
How to break down the barriers on imagination
As I said above, the brain perceives information based on past experiences. It does this because it needs to conserve energy; therefore, the longer you live and the more experiences you encounter, the more your brain will use past experience to conserve energy. This conservation of energy is the enemy when you are trying to stretch your thoughts and be creative. Forcing your brain to rely less on past experience is a very tough task or everyone would be really creative.
A great way to start thinking differently is to do new things - go to new places, participate in new things, and meet new people. Flooding the brain with all these new things causes it to break down categories created by past experience. In order to get rid of conventional thinking, you must also recognize that conventional thinking limits you and there are different ways to perceive things even though you have seen it the same way for so long. Last, the most obvious way to try and break down ordinary thinking is by literally looking at things differently. This seems simple and broad, but it can really be hard to accomplish. An example of this would be if you were an artist you could take pictures of your artwork, or maybe look at your art in a mirror. Increasing your imagination is a hard task to accomplish, but when you do the results can be very rewarding.
Evaluating Your Invention Idea
If you are interested in generating income with your invention idea, then you aren't done. If you want to make money, you are going to have to spend a considerable amount of money to patent and possibly market your invention. You need to be certain you are completely happy with your invention and that it will be profitable when it is place on the market. This requires more research. I know you are probably sick of research by now, but it's important. There are three main ways to evaluate your invention.
1. Study past inventions. Look at successful past inventions and look at failed ones. Study how the economy was when the invention was released and how the economy compares to today's economy. History is the best prediction for your success or failure.
2. Ask people you know. Talk to people about your idea and ask their take on it. Talk to people that will be honest with you; false support can lead you to make a bad decision. Don't worry about them stealing your idea; most people are way too lazy to attempt that.
3. There are inventor organizations designed to help out inventors with ideas. To be honest I have never used them before, I have only read about them online. I would advise trying them out though, I believe they are trustworthy.
There are most likely inventor organizations near you; if you are interested, contact the Office of Energy-Related Inventions (OERI) under the National Institute on Standards and Technology (Gaithersburg, MD 20899) or the Inventor Assistance Program News (Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratory, Mail Stop K6-54, P.O. Box 999, Richland, WA 99352; 509-376-4348 [phone] or 509-376-8054 [fax]).
If you complete all of these steps with enough precision, you will have an invention idea worth patenting. I wanted to write this because most people don't know where to start when it comes to inventing, and I believe this is a good set of guidelines.

I know you are probably sick of research by now, but it's important. There are three main ways to evaluate your invention.
1. Study past inventions. Look at successful past inventions and look at failed ones. Study how the economy was when the invention was released and how the economy compares to today's economy. History is the best prediction for your success or failure.
2. Ask people you know. Talk to people about your idea and ask their take on it. Talk to people that will be honest with you; false support can lead you to make a bad decision. Don't worry about them stealing your idea; most people are way too lazy to attempt that.
3. There are inventor organizations designed to help out inventors with ideas. To be honest I have never used them before, I have only read about them online. I would advise trying them out though, I believe they are trustworthy.
There are most likely inventor organizations near you; if you are interested, contact the Office of Energy-Related Inventions (OERI) under the National Institute on Standards and Technology (Gaithersburg, MD 20899) or the Inventor Assistance Program News (Battelle Pacific Northwest Laboratory, Mail Stop K6-54, P.O. Box 999, Richland, WA 99352; 509-376-4348 [phone] or 509-376-8054 [fax]).
If you complete all of these steps with enough precision, you will have an invention idea worth patenting. I wanted to write this because most people don't know where to start when it comes to inventing, and I believe this is a good set of guidelines.

When you decide you are going to come up with a brilliant invention idea, you are planning an invention; this is different from having an epiphany one day. Well, if you are interested in inventing, then you have come to the right place, here is an article to get you started and generally guide you through the invention process. The first step in coming up with a profitable invention idea is identifying a problem in society.
Came To An End
How to Come Up With a Profitable Invention
Finding a Problem
How to Come Up With a Profitable Invention
First, you have to find a problem. What is a problem? I think most everyone knows what a problem consists of, especially a problem when we are on the subject of inventing. A problem is anything that hinders one from reaching a desired goal or object. There are problems all throughout our society, as you know. You probably encounter around 20 problems a day and most likely openly complain about half of them. Up until now you haven't noticed when you did this, but going through day to day life as a human is your number one supplier for good problems. Listen to yourself, when you complain think about if it could be fixed with a nice invention. It's hard to be focused enough to notice when you complain or see a problem; however, with some practice, it starts to become more noticeable. Also, I recommend carrying around a little journal or using a phone to document these ideas when they come to you.
When looking to identify a problem there is also another resource that is readily available - people around you. This might include your co-workers, friends, family, etc. People naturally complain, you hear this every day, and up until now you thought it was a bunch of annoying non-sense. Everyone thinks it's stupid and unproductive; I have read many psychologists explain people complaining as being some kind of human emotional need for love or some other bull crap. Well, I have developed my own explanation for why people complain. People complain in order to make advancements. People locate problems and vocalize the need for the problem to be solved, thus we have an invention idea or advance in technology. So, listen to the people around you, they will tell you problems they have in their lives. This can be even harder to do then listening to yourself, because we have been conditioned to not pay attention to people complaining.
The internet is a great source for information, use it. People have a problem; they post it on the internet. This is similar to listening to people around you, it's just people that are farther away. There are thousands of blogs and forums where people have jumped on the internet and posted a problem they are having. Go on Google and search for household problems or something along those lines and you will surely find something. Also, as I talk about later, a great problem to identify is one that causes death; therefore, it could be beneficial to search online for things that are causing a death toll every year. If you start to master using these three sources of information for identifying problems, then you will soon have too many problems to remember.
Is the Problem Common?
Just so there is no confusion, you do want the problem you identify to be common. You don't want to be the only person having that problem, or else the invention idea you come up with to solve that problem will only be useful to you. There are a couple of simple ways to decide whether a problem is common:
1. Ask people you know. Talk to your friends, co-workers, family, and just anyone you know and see on a regular basis. Ask them if they have the same problem. You don't have to tell them you are thinking about coming up with an invention idea to solve it, just ask, "Man, I hate it when (blank) happens. You ever have that problem?" This is a simple way to see if a problem is common without telling people about your inventing plans.
2. Again, use the internet! If the problem is common, then a thousand people have already posted about it on the internet. Do a search on Google, and see if the problem turns out to be very popular.
3. Last, you can hold a survey. Go to a place that consists of a lot of people whose attention you can get, such as school, and ask them to raise their hand if they have this problem. This can be a little more intimidating to some people, and it will definitely reveal you are up to something. That being said, it is a great way to get fully submerged in your project.
Don't take this step lightly; it is very important that your problem is common. A profitable invention idea has to appeal to a large amount of people.
Has the Problem Already Been Solved?
Obviously, this is also a very crucial thing to recognize. Solving a problem is going to do you no good if there is already something that solves it. So, you have to do a little research to verify that your problem is free for you to solve. As you would probably guess, a great place to start is the internet. At this point you have probably already searched for your problem on the internet, so hopefully if it is obvious that it has been solved, then you would have already noticed. I would do a more detailed search to make sure you didn't miss anything the first time.
Next, it would be wise to do a patent search. You can do a patent search online at the USPTO's website or with a patent attorney. I would recommend just searching online as it will be cheaper and easier. Searching for a problem rather than an invention is pretty difficult, so it may take a while. Also, you can try searching an obvious invention idea that applies to that problem for better results.
Also, I find it helps a lot to ask around. A lot of times someone will say something like "I think I have heard about something that does that," or something along those lines. Don't forget the value of people.
Is Solving the Problem Viable?
The ultimate question: is the problem going to be profitable to solve? There is no definite answer to this question. There are many things to consider once you have made it to this question.
- Does it save people money? This is a big one. People love products that can pay for themselves. We are also in the midst of an economic recession, so people are always looking for ways to save money. If you are shooting to save people money, there is one important thing to consider; your invention has to be very cost efficient. People don't want to hear that your product will pay for itself in five years, they want quick results.
- Does it save people time? The average person hates spending time on things they don't enjoy. People want to get back to their free time, so saving them time can be very appealing. Over the years time has become quite important to us for many reasons.
- Does it create comfort or entertainment? This is a very hard thing to consider, because it is very opinionated; therefore, it requires you to make a judgment call. Some people get comfort or entertainment from different things, so if you choose to take this route, you have to be sure your invention will apply to lots of people. If you are going to attempt to tackle this, I would recommend doing extra research, online and in surveys.
- Does it save lives? This is another big one, and leads to very profitable invention ideas. There is always going to be a great way to market an invention that saves lives. I would definitely recommend going down this path.
- Does it help people who are hindered? This is a broad category and almost goes with saving lives. There are many things that hinder people such as allergies, diseases, physical limitations, etc.
- Would people pay for this problem to be solved? To really answer this take some thought. You have to consider many variables. You have to kind of start to think about how much an invention to solve this problem would cost and if that amount of money is worth solving the problem. You have to also consider the economic state of your consumers. For example, in today's economy people are spending a lot less money, but you can do some research and find articles to find out what people are still spending money on. The worst thing is to have a great invention, but not be able to make money due to a lack of research at this step.
Now you should have a favorable problem to solve; you are on your way to a profitable invention idea.
Research
At this point you should have a problem that you are interested in solving. You have hopefully already done some research on your problem; however, the research has just begun. This will be a very easy step to skip or not fully commit to, but it is very important for a couple of reasons. You need to research your project thoroughly in order to be equipped to start to solve it. Make sure you know every single thing about your problem; read books, read magazines, read the internet, and anything else that could possibly educate you about your problem. I realize most people don't enjoy reading, and want to skip straight to pioneering the best invention of the last ten years, but inventing is a tedious process if it is done correctly. Most great inventions took years to fully develop, and I don't think we can even fathom how much research these inventors did, because I guarantee you they didn't just sit and think for ten years. Doing research will help you to engineer a solution, but it also serves another purpose. Doing research helps to completely submerge you in your invention; it causes you to think constantly about your problem and increases your urge to uniquely solve it. If you are truly interested in inventing I would strongly advise you to do plenty of research.
Uncovering an Invention Idea
Use Problem Solving
All problems require problem solving; however, some are easier to solve then others. An invention requires a high level of problem solving; this is why it is hard for most people to come up with a unique invention. Some people are naturally good at problem solving and they can solve problems with ease, but there are many people who have developed ways to teach people how to solve problems. There are many great sites and books that give full lessons in problem solving and I would recommend checking some out. I am going to outline a couple of things that I think are important to problem solving in inventing.
- Completely simplify the problem. It is easy to look at the problem and get caught up in the complexity of solving it, and this can discourage you. Take the problem you have identified and find the underlying cause. You want to have a simple problem in order to have the simplest solution. Simple inventions are generally very profitable.
- Change the setting of your problem. This might be difficult to understand, so I will give you an example. Let's say your problem is getting in the shower and then realizing you forgot to get then new shampoo bottle and now you are all wet. Change the setting from a shower to your car; remembering to get a new pack of gum to put in your before you leave to go on a hot date. Doing this will allow you to look at the problem from multiple angles. Don't be afraid to do this several times for several different settings.
Problem solving is about solving a problem by using logic and using techniques to enhance your logic. However, logical problem solving isn't the only way to go about solving your problem; you should also consider the abstract side of pinpointing ideas, which I will talk about next.
Imagination
Imagination is built almost completely around vision. Vision contains two elements, one of which is often overlooked. The first part of vision is the retina receiving light rays and sending them to the brain, this is this part of vision that everyone is familiar with. The second part, what happens after this, is the part that relates the most to imagination. The part of vision where the brain interprets the information from the retina varies from person to person. How the brain perceives the information it receives from the retina is based mostly on past experiences, and there are experiments that prove this. Therefore, if imagination takes place when the brain perceives the information, and the way the brain perceives information is based on past experience, then imagination is limited by experience. That might have seemed like a stretch, but think about this. When you are a kid your imagination is free flowing and untamable, but when you get older and gain experience your imagination begins to dwindle.
How does this apply to inventing?
Most of the great inventions that end up turning over a large profit or changing the world result from an invention idea that is completely ludicrous to the average person. This means the key ingredients to a successful inventor are a loose imagination and the ability to creatively solve a problem. In today's inventing world many inventors have a background in engineering. I have been in engineering classes where they have taught me "how to invent". They do this by rolling out 12 steps of how to come up with a perfect invention idea, each step instructs you exactly how to proceed and think. Well, I think if inventing could be written in 12 steps to a perfect invention idea, then everybody would be coming up with outstanding inventions. You and I both know everyone isn't inventing the next best thing. This is because being the next Walt Disney isn't achieved by following a 12 step equation.
How to break down the barriers on imagination
As I said above, the brain perceives information based on past experiences. It does this because it needs to conserve energy; therefore, the longer you live and the more experiences you encounter, the more your brain will use past experience to conserve energy. This conservation of energy is the enemy when you are trying to stretch your thoughts and be creative. Forcing your brain to rely less on past experience is a very tough task or everyone would be really creative.
A great way to start thinking differently is to do new things - go to new places, participate in new things, and meet new people. Flooding the brain with all these new things causes it to break down categories created by past experience. In order to get rid of conventional thinking, you must also recognize that conventional thinking limits you and there are different ways to perceive things even though you have seen it the same way for so long. Last, the most obvious way to try and break down ordinary thinking is by literally looking at things differently. This seems simple and broad, but it can really be hard to accomplish. An example of this would be if you were an artist you could take pictures of your artwork, or maybe look at your art in a mirror. Increasing your imagination is a hard task to accomplish, but when you do the results can be very rewarding.
Evaluating Your Invention Idea
If you are interested in generating income with your invention idea, then you aren't done. If you want to make money, you are going to have to spend a considerable amount of money to patent and possibly market your invention. You need to be certain you are completely happy with your invention and that it will be profitable when it is place on the market. This requires more research. I know you are probably sick of research by now, but it's important. There are three main ways to evaluate your invention.
1. Study past inventions. Look at successful past inventions and look at failed ones. Study how the economy was when the invention was released and how the economy compares to today's economy. History is the best prediction for your success or failure.
2. Ask people you know. Talk to people about your idea and ask their take on it. Talk to people that will be honest with you; false support can lead you to make a bad decision. Don't worry about them stealing your idea; most people are way too lazy to attempt that.

When I examine John the Baptist's version of the prophecy I tend to get the feeling that there is something not so right with that part of his message. It is against the background of two important factors that I am of this opinion. They are as follows:
Came To An End
Countdown to the End of the World: An End-Time Prediction That Caused Israel to Make a Big Mistake
1. The purpose of John the Baptist's mission
2. The overall context of his message
Countdown to the End of the World: An End-Time Prediction That Caused Israel to Make a Big Mistake
The purpose of John's mission
God had raised up John the Baptist for a specific purpose. His mission was to prepare the way for the coming Messiah. In his ministry John was supposed to point the people to Jesus and identify Him as the Lord's Christ. This he did when he declared,
"Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world" St. John 1:29.
The utterances of this wilderness prophet were so critical that it was to play a role in shaping the idea of the Jewish people concerning the work of the Messiah. Because John was respected as a great prophet, whatever he says would determine the people's expectations.
The context of John's message
As that voice crying in the wilderness, admonishing the people to prepare the way of the Lord, one would easily expect John to give a message that is confined to the First Advent. In accordance with this expectation he spoke thus of the coming Messiah:
"I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire" Luke 3:16
In this proclamation John the Baptist did a great work. This is clearly a countdown to the First Advent and the fulfillment of the Father's promise to send the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost. It is also in keeping with Christ's promise just before His ascension that He will be with His disciples even until the end of the world (St. Jn. 28:20). If that was all that John had to say about the coming Messiah, his work would have been completed. But the problem I have is found in the next verse.
The problem with John's message
What I am about to say is not something that many of us are prepared to appreciate. We are taught to believe that every individual who occupies the office of a prophet is automatically endowed with infallibility and is above question. If you are one of those who hold this view, I refer you the story of the disobedient prophet in 1Kings 13. The fact is no prophet is perfect; they are just as fallible like any normal human being and I believe that John the Baptist had exhibited that weakness in the message he preached. We need to understand that the ministry of the prophets is the manifestation of perfect divinity working via the instrumentality of imperfect humanity.
After John prophesied of the coming Messiah, in the next verse he suddenly shifted gears and proceeded to give a countdown of end-of-the-world events. In continuing his message, here is what the prophet went on to say:
"Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable." Lk. 3:17.
This prophecy is a clear end-of-the-world scenario, yet it was presented as if it will be fulfilled in sync with what he predicted in the preceding verses.
A misunderstanding of Christ's mission
This part of John's proclamation indicates what was going through his mind concerning the Messiah's mission. It seems as if he had misunderstood what Christ was here to do. From this end-of-the-world proclamation, John was expecting the Messiah to abolish Gentile rule and establish an earthly kingdom. In common with the Jewish traditional beliefs, he was clearly mixing up the kingly role of Christ at His Second Coming with His Messianic role at His first. Here is the reason why I believe this was the case.
While John was in prison he began to doubt whether Jesus is really that Christ he prophesied of. He was so much in doubt that he decided to send his disciples to ask Jesus if He is really the one to come or should he look for another. From Jesus' response to the question you can know that He was not pleased (See Lk. 7:20-23).
It was John who had witnessed the Holy Spirit in the shape of a dove descending on Jesus and heard the voice of God from heaven confirming Him as the promised Messiah (Matt. 3:16, 17). Therefore, for John to now doubt whether this Man is the Lord's Christ is to manifest unbelief and a clear lack of understanding of the Messiah's mission.
John's end-time prediction leads to unwarranted expectations
John's countdown of end-of-the-world events was a part of the reason why the Jews were disappointed with the direction that Jesus' ministry had taken. Yes, they had accepted the prophecy of John, and they too were expecting Him to set up an earthly kingdom and restore the nation of Israel.
This goes to show how a true teaching can lead one astray when it is being misapplied. A last-day prophecy had indeed contributed to unwarranted expectations about the First Advent. We who are living in the last days need to be much more diligent in our observation of events connected to the end of the world lest we too become captives to false expectations about the Second Advent.
