So we came up with this model of the transactional world and the flow world in that there's a bunch of meaning to be had in the flow world simply because, look, there's only one real world.
There are two worlds.
But your brain can't handle the whole thing at one time.
And we now know neurologically, you know, Lisa Miller's work at Columbia, there's your achieving brain and there's your awakened brain.
You know, the much more sophisticated version of the left brain, right brain model.
You know, Jill Bolt tailors your stroke of insight, what happened when this neurologist actually lost her left brain for a while.
So what's going on is we're trying to integrate these things and give people access to it.
And so if I can move more into a fuller implementation of my entire consciousness, then my chance at living a richer life goes up.
And so the flow world simply means I want to start making sure that
The part of my consciousness that can experience other aspects of reality is getting airtime because when that part of my awareness gets more airtime, there are experiences available to me right in front of me for free that currently are going wasted.
So we're saying it's not about more.
We are trying to invite people to get more out of the life they're in, not cram more into it to change it.
Now, we wrote two books about how to make big changes.
We're in favor of changing things and making them better.
But along the way, don't forget to live the life you're in.
I think it can.
I think if we're always simply trying to get to the better thing,
Most people's degree of happiness is described by the delta, the gap between the way things are and what they had in mind.
When that gap is small, it's working.
When that gap is broad, it's not.
