It’s not a bad show

I have spent the entire weekend watching the first 12 episodes and at first I thought it was a little like House but then I got over it. I like Michael Holt and I like that he reveals a little of himself every week. The menagerie that accompanies him every week fits in with each episode and the writing is quite good.

I know it’s probably headed for the scrapheap because most of the good ones are but I hope it reveals a lot more of Michael and Anna’s relationship that we don’t know already.

I love Rita and while I didn’t like her at first she is the type to grow on you and certainly would pull the group at the Clinic into line and probably get them the money they need to continue to support the community.

Good one! Well done and let’s hope that if the show is canceled that Patrick Wilson finds another home on TV very soon. He would be sorely missed otherwise.

Series Info

Materialistic surgeon Michael Holt (Patrick Wilson) always believed in working hard for the luxuries in life until he started seeing the dead. Specifically his ex-wife, Anna, who in life was an idealistic doctor who worked with the underprivileged. When Holt decides to heed her request to help keep her old clinic running, he is touched by those who need his help, and his attitude about serving the poor turns upside down in the process. Michael’s off-beat sister, single mother Christina, is happy about Anna’s “return” to Michael’s life because she feels he was a better person with Anna around.

What distinguishes gifted people | PSYCHOLOGIES

25,820

Knowing Yourself A Human Among Humans

The first question gifted adults ask me when they come to training or psychotherapy is, “How do you know I’m gifted?”

First I explain that I’m just seeing this and tell about my observations. Then—because I know that gifted adults need to figure things out for themselves—I give them a list of characteristics, ask them to read it and consider whether they recognize themselves in these descriptions. Then we start working.

There are many such lists, but I made this one specifically for the most complete answer to the main question, which opens the door to a completely new way of perceiving and understanding oneself and the world as a whole: are you a gifted person?

Read this list and decide for yourself if you have these traits.

So, gifted adults:

1. They are intellectually different from those around them. Their thinking is more global, refined, they have the ability to draw general conclusions and see complex interactions in the world around them.

2. They are distinguished by an increased ability to perceive beauty, deeply feel the richness of the colors of the world and see harmony in human relations, nature, and literature.

Prefer subtle jokes, sarcasm, word play. The jokes of gifted people are rarely understood by the audience

3. They like to exchange ideas with other gifted adults. Many people love heated intellectual discussions.

4. Have an inner need to live up to their own expectations. They feel guilty when they fail to achieve their goals.

5. They have a special sense of humor: they prefer subtle jokes, sarcasm, word play. The jokes of gifted people are rarely understood by the audience.

6. Often have strong feelings. It is difficult for them to understand the inconsistent and short-sighted behavior of others. The stupidity, insincerity and danger of many actions are obvious to them.

7. Can predict the consequences of actions, understand cause and effect relationships, and anticipate problems that are likely to arise.

8. Take on risky ventures with difficulty because they are more aware of the risks. In general, they need more time to make a decision.

9. They often invent their own ways of knowing and comprehending reality, which can lead to conflicts with those who do not use these methods or do not understand them.

10. They experience anxiety, a feeling of dissatisfaction with themselves, strive to satisfy personal needs.

They have a rather narrow circle of friends, but these relationships mean a lot to them

11. They have difficulty concentrating on one thing: they have too many abilities in different areas, and they want to succeed everywhere.

12. They often experience too much pressure of creative energy. Talent is drive, pressure, the need to act. It encourages improvement in the intellectual, creative and physical planes. The reason is the need to understand how our world works and create your own.

13. They need time to understand their inner life and understand themselves. Clarifying thoughts and feelings is not a quick process, it requires thoughtful contemplation, solitude and the opportunity to dream.

14. They are best treated by those who share their interests.

15. They have a rather narrow circle of friends, but these relationships mean a lot to them.

16. Demonstrate independent thinking, do not automatically obey the decisions of higher people. They fit perfectly into a society whose members participate in the life of society on an equal footing, and get along well with those who accept their position and innovations.

17. Adhere to strict moral rules, use their talents, inspiration and knowledge to make the world a better place.

18. Understand the complex interrelationships between various global events and are able to offer balanced complex solutions instead of short-term ill-conceived measures.
