The genesis of Ability Refraction, including the creation of Genius-Like-Ability in average youth, is Intrinsic Motivation. Once Intrinsic Motivation is ignited, knowledge and achievement become child-driven, which mitigates a child’s bad/non-existent parents, hard home life, poverty, racism, incompetent teachers and other impediments to intellectual growth.
ARK (Ability Refraction Key) Theory was developed by Dr. Shaun P. Smith from his scientific analysis of data of youth geniuses from around the world spanning several centuries. Dr. Smith discovered a dominant behavior amongst 80% of the youth geniuses that fueled their youthful intellectual growth, that enabled their adult achievements and that resulted in their global eminence.
The dominant behavior: The youth geniuses read books so vastly and thoroughly that they encountered awe-inspiring content, they lost track of time and place, they physiologically changed (hair on the back of the neck standing up, heart beat quickening, mind whirling, etc.) and, out of compulsion, continued to read voraciously to return to that which made them feel alive and to that which gave their lives meaning. In essence, the youth geniuses discovered an entrance to new lands, dimensions and time, which Dr. Smith coined Portal Reading.
For example, youth genius Thomas Chalmers devoted himself so much to reading that he was,
“transported by it into a kind of mystic ecstasy.” (Cox, 1926, p. 507)
“transported by it into a kind of mystic ecstasy.”
Portal Reading was the initial, major, self-efficacy venture in which the genius youths embarked. And, upon the successful performance of Portal Reading and the resultant acquired knowledge and sense of self-efficacy, the youths built a powerful, self-manufactured, self-fueling, machine that powered their intellectual prowess and grand achievements.
That is why Arklosophy created the world’s first Intrinsic-Motivation Ignitor (a comprehensive, scientific, proprietary process) to effectuate Ability Refraction – including Genius-Like-Ability, in ALL children and adults.
Arklosophy knows, based on science, that no healthy-minded child or adult is doomed to intellectual inferiority.
