I was wrong, the lizard brain.


Apologies to the scalie community, I've been treating you as lower order, Steven Pressfield's The war of Art
with the resistance, and even Seth godin with this post. Still useful nonetheless.

We are a complex evolution, not a onion skin type of evolution.

I do still believe there's a reductionist, physical part of us, where we can't use language and where there's an interdependent relationship with placebo/nocebo effects. Dancing with the fear is required when doing creative work.

This reductionism helps with understanding that calories matter for weight, for example.

Things have been illuminated though, I guess we are all smart scalies. Lizard brains are just as complex as human brains, it's not a reduction.
