#109 What If The Opposite Is True? ↔️

Here are some logic statements that we take for granted:

Motivation ➡️ Action.

Happiness ➡️ Gratitude.

Ideas ➡️ Creative expression.

One is necessary for the other. You need to find motivation before you can do something.

I’d like to invite you to consider the possibility that, in fact, the opposite logic is true:

Motivation ⬅️ Action.

Happiness ⬅️ Gratitude.

Ideas ⬅️ Creative expression.

Sit with this for a moment — and consider how it changes everything.


Until another Sunday soon,

Causality➡️Determinism

Counter factual⬅️Choice

Big idea you say, and not “what.if.↔️“ rather ☯️.

Your post explains how determinism flows from the understanding our “free will” creates when confronted with the endless wonder and possibility science has so unimaginatively labelled “the multiverse”. It is also a functional macro explanation of what entanglement represents on a subatomic level.
