What If

What if you could do something that you always wanted to do but did not have the experience or knowledge to do, or even to attempt? Developing that ability is the goal of the Mind-Memory Institute. What if you could achieve in days what might take years of schooling and life experience?The open-ended question, "What If ...?", breaks us out of fixed thinking and invites technology, processes, techniques, and discipline into our lives. Here we follow Ralph, Sadie, Albert, and Mark, volunteer subjects/clients participating in experiments to accelerate gaining experience and creating opportunities for themselves. Each has selected a personal goal in art, music, mathematics, and writing respectively, achieves the goal, and then discovers greater goals. Dr. Rene Philippe, founder and Executive Director of the Institute, encouraged by his own personal success in accelerating his own development using linguistics and hypnosis, leads a team of mentors, Gina, Brad, Meghan, and Riley, in research and developing strategies for enhancing, tailoring, and proliferating neuroscientific theories. Dr. Philippe abruptly resigns his positions at the Institute and the University. Along the way, the institute mentors guiding the subjects become subjects themselves. What If...an Exploration into the Mind is speculative fiction, fiction turning into fact, and possibly already somewhere is fact.
