I had/have a book by this name. By Nicholson Baker - a contemporary American novelist, whose writings focus on minute inspection of the narrator's stream of thought.
Baker is difficult to follow. Past attempts have been bouncers. But I love this phrase - the size of thoughts...
So, I decided to compile 10 Size of Thoughts Thots:-)
1. Very often, my immediate pressing work requires very small sized thoughts. Nano thoughts. Sometimes, no thoughts at all.
2. If we are satisfied with mid-sized thoughts, that's all we will ever have!
3. The company we keep, affects the size of our thoughts. Some people, organisations just shrink the size of your thoughts! Stay away from them...
4. Children have a habit of why-chaining(aisa kyun hota hai) everything! Their constant company can increase both the size and the shape of one's thoughts!
5. One person can change the size of thoughts of a country, an industry - Gandhi, Ratan Tata!
6. The more we stay with a problem, the more the size of our thoughts increase!
7. In advertising, who has the thought/ or sometimes the department of thought determines the size of thought:-)
8. Has constant blogging increased the size of my thoughts?! Decreased the size of my thoughts?
9. Do you only wonder about the size of thoughts related to work? What about the size of thoughts outside of work? For a social cause, any cause...
10. Have you noticed how News TV is squeezing the size of our thoughts?
I don't know whether it's making much sense...But I enjoyed the shape of these thots if not their size:-)
