Always do what feels right
An exhortation.
Breaking down each word:
- Always – no exceptions
- Do – let it occur without hesitation
- What feels right – feel whatever is happening across all of the senses
Notably, it is not to only do what feels right to you. It is to do what feels right to the system, to Nature. But don’t forget that you are also a part of Nature. Trust in your ability to get better over time at noticing when something feels right.
How do you actually do this?
- Return it to Nature
- If you cannot yet return it to Nature, do good deeds
The same core idea from different angles:
- Be impulsive, it’s the only way to generate better impulses over time
- You want what you actually do, so you are already acting in accordance with your wants. Lean into it.
- Try trusting your natural intelligence, without self-awareness (a la Blindsight)
- Give the manager self a break, it deserves it
