nadia_hamza88 Making room to improve that’s the difference. People with big egos never do that they think they know it all and the worst part is they never doubt themselves. That’s why you meet a person and think they are the same person you saw 5 years ago. No improvement or whatsoever Nov 30, 2025 6 likes

lowrisk_highreward It's not possible. I'll explain part of it. Here we go... if the human brain was a cell phone... its default setting would be power save mode. Conserving energy was essential back in the primitive era. We made impulsive decisions because we faced life or death situations on a daily basis. Fast forward 1000s of years... we still make impulsive, irrational and ignorant decisions all the time. We do not realize that applying patience to our thought process is a privilege. We still use our primitive gut for "feeling" instead of our brain for rational thinking. Think takes brainpower. Conflicting information triggers defense mechanisms because we don't want to exert brainpower processing information that completely goes against our current belief system. Oct 16, 2025

doucodnie @ejones_md isn't that assumption contrary to the distribution of IQ (intelligence). I totally get wanting it to be possible but what is the logic behind it? Oct 17, 2025

arizonaosassey What a beautiful snippet of a visualization that you just created.. Thank you. What an extraordinarily peaceful and organized universe if only those objectively defined as high IQ and EQ were allowed to lead Oct 18, 2025
