I remember hearing from Gershom Zajicek that when people are overwhelmed with stimulus, they seek predictability. It's about balancing how much you're capable of being exposed to and process. If energy is low for too long, we adopt those habits to preserve it. The problem is that learning and retention involves the unpredictable factor. When things are predictable you're not learning. If you're someone that keeps seeking mostly reinforcing material, this ist for you.
When people complain about helplessness, they're usually in a predictable stagnant state. That's why a change (even if stressful for a while) can expand possibilities.* Some time ago I was being trained by Davezord and I asked for his validation on the following comment before exhibiting it in Louvre next to burtlan's self-portrait:
- Settling
- Importance of unpredictability for rayward responses in primate dopamine neurons
Now just to leave the thread with a light and uplifting tone:

*I predicted that it was possible to insert a link while avoiding the intermediate words, but I realized it's not. I learned my lesson.
By the way, I hope you like me more for inserting these links because they take a lot of time.

It's possible to stay too long waiting to gather enough energy for a smooth recovery, running the risk of limiting the possibilities and the confidence being abaled by each failure.Dig this poetry: if a birdzord waits for the perfect first flight, it will never leave the ground.
