The MindFields College blog has linked to you, I hope you don’t mind!
We love reading your posts!
Eleanor, I am very honored about that! Let me go further, and say I am very honoured 🙂
NB: will have to spend more time at your blog and MindFields college. From a first look, it seems we are on a very similar wavelength!
How humourous of you, neighbour!
I’m glad you liked the look of our blog — as you can see we have only just begun it, and all readers are welcome.
We published an extract from Elkhonon Goldbergs book ‘The Wisdom Paradox’ in issue 48 of the Human Givens Journal earlier this year, I just noticed that he is on your advisory board, what a coincidence!
7 moves, 13 seconds first try. Is that good, bad or average?
i would really like to know what don wants to know… i had 7 moves 11 seconds.. where do i stand?
Both of you are right: 7 moves.
I am not aware of a normalized table for speed…but 11–13 seconds is very good based on the times we have shown this exercise during our classes.
7 moves in 7 secs 🙂
