Infinitas = UnboundnessThe concept of infinity is flawless.
It is unlike the concept of unlimited. Unlimited carries the meaning 'limitless'. Infinity is 'unending'. Thus, unlimited hot dogs mean you may eat hot dogs for the rest of your life and still not finish them all. Infinite hot dogs, however, mean that at present time there is a number of hot dogs which is too much to be imagined or observed.
Because human are bound by mental limitations, we can never fully grasp exactly how big/small infinity is. The only thing we could do is represent the idea using the famous symbol above.
Technically, everyone has an infinite choices of what to do next.
The biggest flaw is that we don't have the infinite time to do them all, due to our finite lifespan.
Come to EMERGE 2008 tomorrow and see how to release that potential in YOU.
