For me its not as much about time restraints as it is about consciousness.<br />Once we become conscious of different types of consciousness in the world we seem to almost work backwards, trying to link that to some type of meaning to explain the diversity. <br />Maybe it is just a spread out map detailing that we are all in a constant state of flux. Moving thru higher and lower states of consciousness. <br />Perhaps that constant state of tides coming and going is the only true meaning we should ever aspire to. To accept that is something concrete and physical at least.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-10443699281599598132018-07-10T06:57:12.141-07:002018-07-10T06:57:12.141-07:00Nice read ty for sharing.

They frame their perceptions of situations in a way to make them acceptable and manageable. <br /><br />It's a clever trick!<br /><br />Lots of people rely on religion or faith of some sort. Socios find ways to command their own destiny - even if it means tweaking perceptions of reality. No wonder they don't get depressed; they are very resilient in finding paths to what they want. I call it "super-agency", even if it is part make-believe. The human imagination is a huge player in how we experience reality.Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09244806273774124428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628748600098131100.post-7693470936666061622018-07-03T12:58:17.479-07:002018-07-03T12:58:17.479-07:00Ok, I see.

And many cannot be the power-stereotype due to that lack of direction. They are lost in a society where few people get anywhere without long education.

Why? Who said that and what are their credentials? <br /><br />Non-psychopaths like to deal with each other because we can build trust and are more inclined to be fair.<br /><br />People are attributing that to empathy, but it's more complex. <br /><br />I believe it was @Kat that wrote psychopaths are unaccommodating. Yes, that's the problem non-psychopaths have with psychopaths. The degree of unaccommodating-ness is so extraordinary it's beyond our conception of humanity, hence the label of... monsters.<br /><br />It's unwillingness to accommodate that mystifies. It's manipulation rather than trust that flummoxes. These behaviours are anti-collaboration and anti-trust: they go against everything we know about <em>relationship</em>.<br /><br />Empathy and lack thereof are maybe more like convenient targets. The burning question we have is why don't you care? Why do you manipulate and not trust? Why are you so cold? Why won't you respond to my attempts to negotiate? Can't you see I'm on your side? Why are you being so stubborn? Why are you taking advantage of everything I say? Why aren't you being fair? <br /><br />Science is telling us more and more about our wiring for tribalism. Oxytocin facilitates bonding within a tribe and exclusion of outsiders. The empathy levels of any non-psychopath vary immensely depending on social hierarchy and groupings and most people are very comfortable with that. <br /><br />Copies of genes in the next generation. All behaviours are about that. Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09244806273774124428noreply@blogger.com
