From the Author

Salutations.

I am JaiChai.

And if I haven't had the pleasure to make your acquaintance, it's always nice to meet a fellow Steemian.

I just read yet another great post from @rok-sivante.

See:

https://steemit.com/socialmedia/@rok-sivante/unlocking-the-inspiration-stream-in-3-2-1#@jaichai/re-rok-sivante-unlocking-the-inspiration-stream-in-3-2-1-20171104t023629188z

Then I posted this comment to @rok-sivante:

@rok-sivante,

Chaos Theory operates on "a hyper-sensitivity to initial conditions."

That means that an almost imperceivable change at the start of a process can lead to vastly different results in the end.

For example,

The Butterfly Effect:

"This effect grants the power to cause a hurricane in China to a butterfly flapping its wings in New Mexico. It may take a very long time, but the connection is real.

If the butterfly had not flapped its wings at just the right point in space/time, the hurricane would not have happened."

And if you've ever done any land navigation the old fashioned way (no GPS allowed) during some recreational hiking - or military infiltrations over land, you fully understand how not adjusting for magnetic declination can land you in Timbuktu!

Again, Chaos Theory's "hypersensitivity to initial conditions" comes into play all the time in all aspects of our everyday lives.

And this was VERY SELF-EVIDENT during my military career...

I wasn't the most gifted sniper.

To be honest, I was pretty lame.

And no, I didn't name my rifle and caress it at night.

Anyway, I often failed to DOPE my Scope right. I didn't always slow my breathing or shoot in between heartbeats either.

Results?

Well...let's just say there was Hell to pay in the form of "corrective physical training" and of course, much ribbing by my buddies later - and many rounds of beers on me!

As for your foray into Instagram World? Did you know the above Chaos Theory's Universal Principle beforehand?

Or was it a Forrest Gump moment?

Love your articles, bro.

Namaste,

JaiChai
