So far, knowledge of such complexity continues to occupy the minds of today, even though intelligence has been made artificial.
People often misjudge their abilities. Those with less than average abilities overestimate their true abilities. Those with higher don’t realize how much higher. Stupid people are too stupid to know how stupid they are. Some smart people wrongly assume that most others can do what they can.
We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events.
Thinking, Fast and Slow by Kahneman
Mitochondria supply the energy in the cell.
Heart muscle cells have the most mitochondria, thousands per cell.
High-intensity interval training in aerobic exercises such as biking and walking cause cells to make more proteins for their energy-producing mitochondria, effectively stopping aging at the cellular level.
What would happen if all the mitochondria in your body released all their energy at once?
Live as if you were living already for the second time and as if you had acted the first time as wrongly as you are about to act now!
Imagine first that the present is past, and second, that the past may yet be changed & amended.

“Tell me, Master, what is the best move in the world?”
There simply is no such thing as the best or even a good move apart from a particular situation in a game and the particular personality of one’s opponent.
The same holds for human existence. One should not search for an abstract meaning of life. Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life to carry out a concrete assignment which demands fulfillment.
Therein he cannot be replaced, nor can his life be repeated. Thus, everyone’s task is as unique as is his specific opportunity to implement it.
Man’s Search For Meaning by Victor Frankl
When you look at an object, you see one side of it at a time; the nature of vision. When you think about something, you think about it in one context at a time; the nature of thought.
Context determines what your mind thinks just as viewing-angle determines what your eye sees.
Brain activity in the pink matter (wet) comes up with a mental impulse that drives the hand to draw with pencil on paper (dry), transferring an idea into physical space. From there the graphic design, as in this example, gets uploaded into the AIR of cyberspace.
Fast and Slow is Daniel Kahneman‘s idea of thinking in terms of System One and System Two.
System One defines the fast, effortless, intuitive, almost impulsive type of thinking.
System Two describes a deliberate, slow-paced kind of thinking that involves the effort of concentration.
To Stop thinking requires training your mind to silence your thoughts. That higher level of control is achieved with deliberate, focused time & effort, through the practice of meditation.
