Mindset is not a cause, but an effect. A human being is fundamentally a biological organism. We are putting the cart before the horse, which only illustrates how limited our understanding still is.https://twitter.com/farnamstreet/status/1031739218681155584 …

A biological organism. Interesting. Would you then agree with Schopenhauer who seemed to take believe that health is absolutely central to our lives, saying: "In general, nine-tenths of our happiness depends on our health alone"?

Everything relates to biology; absence of evidence does not indicate evidence of absence. We are dimly aware of perhaps 1/10th of the processes that influence cognition, its nature and development, yet pretend to somehow hold psychological dominion over it. Laughable.

Judging by all the technology and knowledge we've amassed thus far, you would think we'd be experts by now but quite the contrary. It appears as if the some of the early bright minds had it right-the more you know, the less you grow.

I personally view our existence more through a "systems" thinking lens, where many different parts are interacting with one another- mutual relationships which produce effects/outcomes that would be otherwise impossible for each part alone. This is where the magic hides.

Though these interactions/relationships feedback loops are not so easy to decipher-maybe systems within systems within systems not so observable so to your point
@mistermircea hence why we're where we're at.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
Spirals within spirals all the way down.
