1. Stop Getting Sucker
Punched

2. One of the biggest causes of human
suffering is an instinct mismatch.

3. Take hunger for example.

4. In a hunter-gatherer environment, if
you didn't the tendency to eat as
much as you could whenever there
was food, you didn't have much of a
chance of surviving.

5. Since food was limited. When you had
some, you had to get as many calories
in you (and ON YOU in terms of energy
storage) as possible.

6. But nowadays, that's a very dangerous
strategy. For obvious reasons.

7. A lot of our instincts were GREAT for
primitive times, not so much today.

8. A couple of these are authority and
social proof.

9. Countless nations have gone nuts
because they had a crazy leader
(authority) that everybody rallied
behind (social proof).

10. Even today, it's VERY HARD to admit
that we ourselves are influenced by
these.

11. We LIKE to think we are rational,
consciously driven, awake, etc.

12. But next time you're considering doing
something, ask yourself these
questions:

13. Would you still do it if NOBODY else
was doing it?

14. Would you still do it if there were
ZERO authority figures behind it?

15. This is hard. Most of us don't like to
think of ourselves as pack animals.

16. But as I'm sure you know, many of the
greatest inventors, scientists,
researchers and explorers of all time
didn't wait around for social or
authority approval.

17. Often times they did so despite not
having ANY of that.

18. Another thing that can in the way of
living a fulfilled life is emotional blind
spots.

19. Things that suddenly pop up out of
nowhere, and feel like a sucker punch.

20. Consciously, you have no idea why
these things bother you.

21. They SUBCONSCIOUSLY remind you of
some pretty scary things that
happened as a kid.

22. When you were young, inexperienced,
and were TOTALLY DEPENDENT on
those around you.

23. The only problem is your lightning fast
brain makes such fast associations,
that something that is even SIMILAR
today to something that happened
long ago is going to FEEL just as scary.

24. Often times without having a rational
explanation why.

25. Kind of like when you KNOW you just
ate an hour ago, but you can't help
opening another box of cookies.

26. The way to "handle" your instincts is to
manage them.

27. The way to "handle" those emotional
blind spots is to RE-PROGRAM them.

28. This is much, much easier. You won't
have to manage them, since they'll
disappear.

29. Not like your HUNGER will ALWAYS be
there.

30. Those emotional blind spots can be
ERASED.

31. For Good.
