211107 What I learned in my studies this morning

After Earth, what comes? 

After all, what else remains?

No more. Nothing less. 

 
Daily Stoic:

On this, all people are equal: they control one thing . . . their mental response to the world. 

I've met pols and billionaires. Many times, actually. Quite influential people, all told.  When I have, I've always felt intimidated.  Why?  Because my monkey brain still reacts to subconscious social status signals which help organize and arrange our primate group dynamics.

Even though I know they are not better, that we're not inherently different, there'd still be an unpreventable, momentary flash feeling of inferiority. 

Something to continue working on. 

Time to be better.
