Knowing what we want

🌱 | Created on 01-07-24 | Edited on 01-07-24

Some things we could do to better understand what, or how, we want :

  1. Watch those who influence what we want
  2. Categorise models as internal or external
  3. Watching how obsessed we get with what our neighbours have
  4. Figure out the system around which your desires are shaped; the system around which you make your choices
  5. Take a look at the history of your desires to know where they come from
  6. Own your desires, though they may be shaped by others. Leave your mark on it.
  7. Move towards anti-mimetic being by watching for desires that don’t make you feel restless, and something that gives you long-lasting joy.
  8. Above all, surrender to serendipity
