It feels good to be done with something
the intial 'gateway' to a posititve emotion is having desire in what you do
I could see the desire to getting something you don't want to do done
yeah exactly
Nobody does anything without a reason
Is that what you're saying?
yeah, the reason i brought this up is because i've been thinking about a fundamental truth that we all live by, "We prefer experiencing positive emotions over negative emotions." and then i asked myself "What is the common trait that all 'things' that invoke a positive emotion share?"
and i thought that trait was desire
it's simple but i'm trying to pinpoint fundamentals that i can build my life around
you can experience positive emotions while you are in pain btw 😄
as long as you have desire
***masochism much?***
yeah lol
Lmao
there would be no masochism if this was impossible 😄
is there another trait that i actually derived desire from though?
feeling inadequate?
maybe that's what pushes us forward
That's a desire to be better
but it's subconscious so we dont realise it
what invokes desire?
it's inadequacy right?
means to an end
i dont understand what you mean @Commanda Knuckel
cud u explain
if i want to be the fancy old man i always dreamt of i will see everything that allows me to become such as desirable
and anything irrelevant as inadequate
the tools you use to reach point B from point A are desirable because it allows you to move forward and accomplish something
oh okay, but what im talking about is the 'if i want' bit in your sentence - what makes u want that?
is it because u feel inadequate of where uare now?
what makes u want to go from a C to an A in math?
is it ur interest in the subject or the inadequacy u feel
and is ur interest in the subject only because u feel inadequate?
what drives evolution of ur consciousness?
i cant answer that due to mental damages that dont let me function this way :3
what do u mean?
i know when my screws are loose but here they are not even in place
u sound sane to me
ehehe 😅
as sad as it is, i can;t come to any other truth that explains the reason for why we grow
