In chess in the span of two tournaments I lost 20 games in a row against weak opponents, yet using Intuitive Iteration, I have been able to write three critically acclaimed chess books on chess theory. Also, when my game is "on", I can routinely get winning positions against the strongest computers in the world, winning four games and drawing dozens of games. Against human opponents I have gotten my games published in top professional journals, and, in the only game against a Grandmaster, one of the strongest players in the country, I got a winning attack only to accept a draw in a superior position.
To achieve this level of activity I use intuitive iteration, a process I described in the Mensa Bulletin March 1995. The article is called, "Communal Blind Spot Theory.. Think of this as the ultimate in reliance on intuition as a research tool fully equal to facts and logic. Intuition is a separate and distinct way we few reality from facts and logic. For true wisdom to occur we must have the integration of intuition, facts, logic and experience. It is my belief that if my methodology of intuitive iteration could be understood and utilitized by as few as one scientist out of a hundred, we would see a return to American Exceptionalism as these techniques, if implemented correctly, would result in the doubling of the number of paradigm shifts within 10 years over and above that which would occur in the absence of these methods.
