A home for maverick thoughts. Have you ever sought out a place where you can share your wildest thoughts?
But not just some random place, but a place where you are surrounded by likeminded individuals. A place where your thought patterns are appreciated. A place where the value of your various brainwaves are welcomed. In my honest opinion this is what the Maverick Paradox Magazine is!
A safe place to share and experiment with your thoughts.
I have been writing articles for the Maverick Paradox since 2020. It could be that you have read all my articles and it could be that this is your introduction to my mental rodeo. Since I was young I have been pathologically curious, this curiosity caused me to hop from encyclopaedia to encyclopaedia.
Those among you who grew up before the age of the internet probably instantly understand what I mean but for those who grew up in modern times here is a quick explanation. Encyclopaedias were/are the hardcover written versions of Wikipedia. Usually 1 book per letter of the alphabet and in some case 1 book for multiple letters. In these books every word or happening that starts with said letter could be found in its respective book. For example ‘Egypt’ would be found in the book for E and ‘Civil rights movement’ in the book for C.
Just as modern day Wikipedia has the ‘See also’ section, the encyclopaedia also had related topics and recommendations. As such I hopped from one book to the other but along the way I would sometimes get side tracked as I would notice interesting topics while looking for the related topic. Back then there were no direct links to click on, so you would search page by page for that which you were looking for.
Just as a bull in a rodeo, my mind would suddenly jerk towards the new topic and afterwards jerk back on path. Just as a river carries with it some specs of dirt from upstream downstream. My thoughts would carry knowledge and possibilities of one topic to the other. This would lay the basis for the way my thought process works.
The thing is not everyone’s process functions the same way. We are thought in school to focus on the topic at hand. The result of this is that many are not able to follow the fruits of my mental rodeo and even worse many are not open to them.
The Maverick Paradox Magazine is the place where those who connect dots to the dots outside the paper gather. It is a place where people are interested in the “weird” process that lead to a certain result. This makes the Maverick Paradox the ideal space for me to share my various thoughts. I can take the reader on a journey that starts with hair and ends at mindset.
But I can also learn about military leadership and its relationship to civilian leadership. It’s the space where I have met interesting and great people. Home is the place where you should be able to comfortably share your thoughts, interact with like minded and experiment in life. And the great thing about this house is that the door is always open. Welcome and looking forward to having you along for the Maverick rodeo in 2024 and beyond!
