The Beauty In Creation. Looking Deeper And Learning More.
Sep 14, 2023 1:46 pm
Many people go through life with a mind that is low in quality.
Being attached to personal bias and not reflecting upon what they are perceiving.
Looking at complex things without diving deeper into what makes them work.
Overlooking the powerful but simple levers in ones foundation.
What quality mind are you building?
The Sum Without Understanding The Parts
It's priceless to look from the birds eye view.
To aim to understand all the moving parts of something.
When you take a frog and toss it into the blender you get a blended frog.
But what you don't get is what makes the frog a frog.
You now have the entire thing combined.
What makes it work is lost.
I find massive value in looking at each detailed moving piece, rather than blending everything together.
Maybe after investigating every part and understanding how each mechanism works then It's sensible to blend it and see what you get.
To only look at the sum of something and not notice what each micro piece does is to ignore the beauty of the entire creation.
People see cars, and it's something that get's you from A to B.
But if you look deeply you realize how many moving pieces go into making the car something that does it's job.
If there were no people who understood each part then cars would not work.
Point is, whatever interest you, dive deep into it.
Investigate what makes it Truly work.
The Power In Connecting Dots
When you look at a thing and are genuinely curious it's more likely that you connect dots and grab some insight.
There's tremendous power in connecting dots.
For example lets go into the mind and body connection.
If you don't drink water then you feel poor, confused and drained.
Then if you attempt to do some cognitive work in that state of mind it's much harder and your output becomes low quality.
If you connect dots you realize there's nothing wrong with your mind, but not hydrating created a state of mind which is not best suited for high quality cognition.
It's a very basic example, but many humans are not doing this basic math.
Because if more humans connected dots we would not have people who eat food that creates a low quality state of mind.
We wouldn't have people who put themselves in states which create more problems for them.
Overlooking The Value In Basic Fundamentals
To connect dots you do need some basics covered.
Specifically you need a lifestyle structure which optimizes clarity.
Without a clear mind you won't have the capacity which allows for connection of dots.
To create clarity you need to have micro habits.
If you wake up early, don't drink everyday, eat simple and healthy, exercise, meditate and have a weekly planner you are setting yourself up fundamentally for clarity.
If you don't have the right foundation you just won't be capable of connecting dots.
So although what I listed is quite basic, it's also quite powerful and life changing.
But don't just believe me, please.
Just consider testing these micro habits out for like 3 days and write about the difference in what you feel.
What Your Foundation Does For You
With a strong and beautiful foundation you create the space to become whatever it is that you like.
The foundation allows for clarity, and that allows for skill acquisition.
Whatever path you want to take, you will need skills.
The trouble is many humans don't understand the value in the fundamentals, so they don't create the lifestyle which breeds clarity.
It does not matter what you want to become.
Clarity is fundamental to you becoming anything of value.
And just making sure, your goal isn't to be useless right?
Well then your answer is simple.
Get your fundamentals down.
With the correct foundation you will then be capable of acting consistently, while reflecting and iterating throughout time.
If you do this it's inevitable that you become that which you seek.
It won't happen overnight but it will happen.
If you prioritize clarity you will not be stopped, remember sometimes you get what you need, not what you want.
Opening The Mind Will Make Life Easier
Truth is, an open mind and big picture thinking are keys to thriving.
And to get access to these keys your foundation must be strong.
If you can connect dots through clarity your life will become easier. You will be capable of putting in less effort while getting better results.
I don't know who doesn't want that.
Test yourself, take a look at your micro habits and way of life.
Are you as clear as you want to be?
Now even with clarity you will have uncertainty, but your clear mind will be able to navigate uncertainty much better than a un-focused and foggy mind.
See that's exactly what I mean.
That is connecting the dots.
I'm not implying that clarity makes life perfect.
But I am telling you that it makes life easier.
Does an easier but more valuable life interest you?
You don't have to do it alone.

Actionable Tips
So I'll be to the point, there are certain systems and tactics that are simple but lifechanging.
