I’ve found “efficiency as the opposite of stability” a very powerful concept to think about - even though it’s fairly simple, it seems to be almost a fundamental law. Efficiency is dangerous and slowing down makes life better | Hacker News

Very few people tend to look at the mind as a system, and also seem to ignore that depression, anxiety, panic disorders, etc. happen for a reason. The reason why modern humanity have increased risk of these symptoms is because they know, given their perhaps wrongly learned models of the world or otherwise, that even when they achieve their so-called life goals, that they wouldn’t achieve philosophical nor psychological satisfaction that they seek. Their mind has predicted the conclusion of their efforts, and the conclusion lies far below what they seek. Thus the mind desperately attempts to re-understand, re-configure, and re-model the world to achieve its goals.

All partners in a relationship compensate for the other’s shortcomings. That is one of the benefits of a relationship. Beware of Being “Right” | Hacker News

Part of the wisdom of meditation lies in the following: There is baggage we all carry, the self, this belief we’re the center of it all, the author of (and subservient to) our own thoughts. How do I stop doing what makes me unhappy, if that’s “who I am”? But, in reality, I can abandon “who I am” and find new processes of living and new ways of thinking about the world.
