ular to act,
the Osseous to stabilize, but the Cerebral lives to meditate.

Air Castles

He loves to plan, imagine, dream day-dreams, visualize and go over and
over in his mind the manifold possibilities, probabilities and
potentialities of many things.

When he carries this to extremes--as the person with a huge head and
tiny body is likely to do--he often overlooks the question of the
practicability of the thing he is planning. He inclines to go
"wild-catting," to dream dreams that are impossible of fruition.

Thought for Thought's Sake

He will sit by the hour or by the day thinking out endless ultimates,
for the sheer pleasure it gives him. Other men blame him, criticise him
and ridicule him for this and for the most part he does fail of the
practical success by which the efficient American measures everything.

But the fact must never be forgotten that the world owes its progress to
the men who could see beyond their nose, who could conceive of things no
one had ever actually seen.

This type, more than any other, has been the innovator in all forms of
human progress.

The Dreamer

"Everything accomplished starts with the dream of it," is a saying we
all know to be true. Yet we go on forever giving all the big prizes to
the doers. But the man who can only dream lives in a very hostile world.
His real world is his thoughts but whenever he steps out of them into
human society he feels a stranger and he is one.

Doesn't Fit

The world of today is ruled by people who accomplish. "Putting it
over," "delivering the goods," "getting it across," are a part of our
language because they represent the standards of the average American
today.

The Cerebral is as much out of place in such an environment as a fish is
on dry land. He knows it and he shows it. He doesn't know what the other
kind are driving at and they know so little of what he is driving at
that they have invented a special name for him--the "nut."

Doing isn't his line. He prefers the pleasures of "thinking over" to all
the "putting over" in the world. This type usually is a failure because
he takes it all out in dreaming without ever doing the things necessary
to make his dream come true.

A "Visionary"

These predilections for overlooking the obvious, the tangible and the
necessary elements in everyday existence tend to make of the Cerebral
what he is so often called--a "visionary."

For instance, he will build up in his mind th
