Most of us follow our thoughts in a linear way. One thought causes another one furthering one of the common underlying themes. It’s quite possible that if you compare the first thought in a string of thoughts with the last thought, you will not be able to make out any common theme at all. However, what you need to realize is that thoughts ought to be compared to only their adjacent one. As long as they are related, you are really still a linear thinker. Most people are linear thinkers this way.

Since thoughts reign over the subconscious landscape, they are thus the foundation of what we manifest in the conscious landscape as well. Thus, “most of us” need a string of ideas to be presented to us with a common underlying theme even in reality. If we don’t see the underlying theme, we find it difficult to grasp the idea. In effect, we’ve set our own boundaries. But I believe thoughts ought to be boundless. Thoughts are universal! No particular person owns a thought. I believe when we are thinking subconsciously, we are actually tapping into a universal stream of subconscious thoughts! The thought we picked up is the one we are were the most susceptible or attracted to. I am really not cheating out the inventors / engineers / scientists from their inventions / discoveries. This is just my thought! The thought, I caught when I tapped into the universal stream! The one I was most susceptible to.

Imagine if there was an undercurrent in this stream of universal thought that said “how I wish there was a way to ensure the house never got dusty!” and let’s say 2 people attract themselves to this thought: one is a housewife who is genuinely concerned about the constant upkeep of her house! Another one happens to be a professor of chemistry who is always immersed in their experiments and theories and they one day emerged into reality, as though waking out of a reverie and they realized, “Oh gosh! Look how dusty my house is! What was I doing? When was the last time I vacuumed it? How I wish there was a way to ensure the house never gets this dusty!” This professor is quite likely to immerse their head into discovering a solution for solving their problem with the dust in the house! Maybe they discover a resin / compound that if it is coated on surfaces, make them dust-repellent! This solution will eventually help the housewife as well once it is commercialized! But both these people had thought the same thought! Yet only one of them will be regarded as an inventor! The other will just be a mere consumer! See what I am trying to say? We all have the access to this universal stream of thought but what we do with it is entirely up to the means and tools we have with us.
