You know, most of the time, like in order for like a game to be fun or a movie to be entertaining, the good guy has to lose and then he has to win at the end.

Right.

There has to be some sense of tension.

There has to be some degree of uncertainty in life.

So that is what we're going to try to recreate.

And now what we're going to do is understand a couple of basic patterns that allow us to recreate this kind of sinusoidal flow.

This this sort of, you know, life is like oscillating.

Right.

And this is the problem in depression is that we feel encased in amber.

So how do we create that sense of flow again?

OK, so as a human being, like there are three fundamental pieces of your existence.

Now, what we notice about people who are existentially depressed is that there is an imbalance between these.

So I'll give you all an example.

So if I am a thinker.

What I'll find is that I don't feel very much and I don't do very much.

So this person is not going to be happy.

All they do.

And we have this great video on thinkers versus doers.

And all they do is like, think, think, think, think, think, think, think they don't even feel very much.

Maybe there's a depression.
