META-PROGRAMS AS SKILLS IN YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM

You know that each meta-program is a thinking or perceiving pattern—a way of looking at things. If it is that kind of a pattern, then it reveals a skill—a capacity, a way of doing something. For example, the first meta-program tells about your ability to access and create images in your mind, or sounds, or sensations or the capacity to go meta to the sensory systems and code things linguistically. The third meta-program speaks about your ability to match what is present and/or to mis-match.

When you think about meta-programs as skills, then you have to shift upward and realize that they are meta-skills. That is, above and beyond a skill are these meta-skills which enable the primary level behavior, or dis-ables it. This means that you will be able to learn and do some things with the meta- programs you have and without those particular meta-programs, you will not be able to do those things. Pretty significant, eh?
