According to Groth (1993), now is “the age of the mind”. He said that
“…. the opportunity for great harvest. It is the harvest of the Mind. Few realize this. Fewer will capitalize on it.”

A) A World of Observers, not Creators
"our dreams, inner uniqueness, heroic talents and abilities are usually traded for the needs of parents and peers."
Eastwood, William (2000)
Whenever we try to create anything new, if others cannot see or understand it, what we do is false in their eyes.
Average person believes in what others have done.
Humanity has lost its capacity to respond appropriately to the conditions that its engenders.
Basadur, Min indicated that everyone is born with creativity and used it extensively during childhood, by the time we become adults, our creativity has been suppressed because we have become skilled in evaluating, analyzing, and limiting the number of ideas and options, to the virtual exclusion of imagining more ideas and options.

B) Social Transcendence and Autonomy

It means breaking free of pressure to fit in, agree with, and be “normal”.
Being yourself and doing what you want regardless of what others think.
In this way, people do what they know is best, to the best of their ability, without being effected by the programs, values, and belief systems of those around them.
Social transcendence and autonomy is a crucial issue regarding mental ability, as it is a source of creativity.
