mindpower

Why this word is great

MINDPOWER — [Noun] Mental power; any capacity of the mind, from creative leaps to psychic intuition. From mind ("the faculty of consciousness and thought") + power ("ability or capacity to do something"). Unlike "intellect" (which narrows to reason and analysis) or "willpower" (which fixates on resolve), mindpower is the unclassified surge of mental energy—the sudden solution that arrives in the shower, the uncanny certainty of a premonition, or the effortless fluency of a pianist’s fingers finding their way across black and white keys without conscious thought. It is the mind’s vast, uncharted hinterland, where logic and mystery share the same soil.
