Innovative Creativity Together
Building on the 6th Sense
The mission of Ponder and Yonder! is to put forth and frame the idea of thinking. The sixth sense, intuition, is what actually drives motives, characterized by perceptions to reality. Whether it is subconsciously planning how to approach a certain situation, we humans, on average, make 30,000 decisions daily because of it. If we truly hone our intuition, we become more cognizant of our actions and, as a result, the world around us.
By offering engaging and thought-provoking discussions and seminars revolving around the essence of life, mathematics, and science, Ponder and Yonder! encourages the art of thinking for everyone by exercising and even challenging ourselves into the distilled hearts of creativity, which stimulate this natural intuition.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Why is Ponder and Yonder!’s design based on cubes and squares?
Good question. Honestly, the design is quite ambiguous, and there are many ways you can go about defining it. The first square is seen to be behind the rest of the squares, while the last square is on top of the rest of the squares. Maybe these squares represent states of learning and gaining new perspectives. Maybe the last square showcases development in becoming on top of the element of pondering. The point is that there is not a definitive answer.
What does Ponder and Yonder mean?
It’s as simple as when one takes the time to think critically about the world around them and, as a result, gains maturity (the "ponder" part). They then go beyond and use this thinking for good ("yonder").

To do is to be
Above is a variation of Socrates’ quote. This is an interesting motto because its simplicity holds true. However, it is important to keep in mind that there are numerous complications (environmental, associative/nonlinear modes of thinking, etc.) that influence certain actions that, in turn, cause certain personas ranging from a vast spectrum.
We often have philosophical discussions during discussions, challenging our thinking for the better.
Why have these discussions, one may ask?
The answer is quite simple: understanding perspective. With communication come ideas in various forms, and conveying ideas is what ultimately keeps this world going.
