So there's an idea in the Old Testament that the firstborn is to be sanctified to God. And I think the reason for that is that the aim sets the frame. Right, right. So if you start a new endeavor, which you do sequentially during the day, right, because your day is composed of a whole variety of journeys, essentially events towards a destination. Right.

You set the aim and that sets the frame of perception. And it sets, it actually calibrates your emotions, right? Because positive emotion, this is another thing that Friston established, I think, better than anyone else. This is very cool. So... Negative emotion indicates a high entropy state. Too many convening rum lines, let's say.

Positive emotion makes itself manifest when the entropy in relationship to a goal is decreased. So once you establish the goal, there's a certain calculated cost to getting there. And that cost is going to be indicated in part by anxiety because it indicates the risk for the endeavor.

Okay, when you take a step forward to the location, you reduce the entropy because the probability that you'll succeed is now increased. And that decrease in entropy is marked by dopaminergic activation of positive emotion. So it's so cool because it means, this is so cool. It's one of the things I've been lecturing to people about as I travel. It's like... your aim sets your emotional frame.

There's almost nothing more important to understand than that. It's like, because your brain can't compute what's positive until it knows what the direction is and it sees you making progress. So no aim, first rule there is no aim, no positive emotion. And the second rule is progress towards an aim once specified is positive emotion. And then there's a corollary, which is something like,
