kanny 20,667 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) Its called cognitive fixation fellas. Basically you could see the numbers 1-100 every day 3 times and all you would think about is the 3x69 or 11 or whatever ur fix point is! It comes down to what the mind preconceives a function as rather than assessing the situation. You will glance at that speedo/clock/battery 50 times a day and think nothing of the 49 other figures but when it says 69 .....holy shit! When the titanic hit the iceburg did the captain see a massive raft that could save everyone? Or did he see an iceberg and sail away to open water, hence a lot of dead bodies??? Thats the common example used. Bit late in the night for deep thinking and didnt mean to spoil the party! Ry That's what they want you to think lol I've looked at cognitive fixation and it doesn't really relate to be honest ...the truth is still out there Edited November 24, 2016 by kanny 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

johnny.w 316 Posted November 24, 2016 Report Share Posted November 24, 2016 I don't understand. I just looked at my watch and it's just gone 9. I'm sure I'll check it again sometime during the day and if it's 11.11 i'll remember it just because of this topic. All the other times will be forgotten. What does it prove? Genuinely interested.
