@CryptoPicard @JoshuaLelon @eshear I believe it can be. Anything can be broken down into a learnable skill. Willingness to be better is the only prerequisite I'd say

For the longest time, I've optimised to be more high-agency.

This flowchart by @JoshuaLelon
gets me going every single time whenever I feel stuck.

It's based on how @eshear said he'd train someone to be more agentic.

Taking action is quite literally magical

@moorehn Correct me if I'm wrong but is this called executive dysfunction & is a therapist/external help necessarily required to solve for it long-term?

@catchvartan @JoshuaLelon @eshear For starters, if you continue to answer the following questions you'd atleast get a hint as to why you're doing nothing in the first place

[tanisha raghav @moonsrabbit7]

@rishabmishraa @JoshuaLelon @eshear I'm glad you don't need one

[tanisha raghav @moonsrabbit7]

@samzliu @JoshuaLelon @eshear Well put, I'm going to attempt writing an article on the same

@tactipus_ infinite feeds are one implementation of variable reinforcement. i was curious to know if/how we can design for that mechanism in finite container interfaces

[tanisha raghav @moonsrabbit7]

a few questions i keep asking myself:

- why does spending too much time on social media make me feel numb to my own emotions?
- if the brain has a threshold for how much information it can retain, feel, and process, what happens once we cross that threshold?
- what is the physiological impact of the emotional numbness caused by being chronically online, especially through video content?
- if variable reinforcement contributes to the addictive nature of social media, are there ways to emulate a similar experience without relying on infinite feeds or endless scrolling?
- what are the signs that i’ve become performative, and how do i pull myself back into creating from a place of authenticity?
- what are some cognitively low-effort ways to create when i feel completely drained or creatively blocked?

@curlysaarthak curious, how do you think your type of meditation will help

[tanisha raghav @moonsrabbit7]

@curlysaarthak yup it does, these come up during the sessions regularly

Working on writing the big list of goals and dreams for the next decade which I'll publish on the internet on my 22nd birthday

If it's on the internet it'll come true <3
