By The latest episode of “The Three Levels of Self-Awareness” is very interesting for me. It deals with a topic that I feel very strongly about: the lack of awareness of the potential of our own thoughts and behavior.
As an example, let’s look at the case of a person who’s trying to make a decision about a product they are about to buy or sell. They start with a very strong idea about how it will improve their life and happiness, and then they start to look around for other sources of information.
The first step is to realize that your decision is already baked into your personality. All you have to do is to come to the conclusion that this decision is going to make you happy and make you feel good. If you have to make a decision that will result in you not having a happy life, you’re going to be so upset you’ll end up doing something you don’t want to do, even if there is no real alternative.
People with a rich inner life are also people who tend to have a lot of control in their lives. They can make a decision that will result in their happiness but they cant change what happens. A rich inner person is the opposite.
The only way I could be happy is if I found a good place to put my favorite things in, and I did it. I’d spend the next 8-9 hours alone in a dark place and I’d be a total wreck. If I didn’t, I’d be gone.
It’s okay if you’re a rich person, but you can’t go to a bar. If you’re a rich person, you can’t go there. I’m sure many people in my generation have been at the bar for years, but I know they have a right to have the right to have and to be able to choose when they least need to go. I know this because I’m probably the least fortunate to have a life of my own.
The night before the party, a woman named Karen has invited the residents of her apartment building to a party. She plans to use the party to try to seduce a young guy named Matt. She’s a bit too excited about the night to realize that Matt is a cop, and she’s probably going to be killed with a bullet to the head during the party. A few minutes after the party ends, Matt spots Karen and gives her a message in his car.
As of course, Karen has disappeared. Matt thinks shes dead, and Karen thinks that Matt is out to get her. Meanwhile, Matt is able to recover some of Karens’ memories because of the party. Now that Matt has been able to return her memories, he is able to find the party-related messages and figure out that Karen was the first person on Deathloop to get on the island.
That is until she reveals her motive: to become immortal, and to rid the world of the Visionaries. And I think that’s a pretty cool goal. After all, what does it matter if immortality or the end of the universe is the ultimate goal of life? You’re going to die anyway.
