Cognitive Awakening (Zhou Ling)
Mind map of cognitive awakening (Zhou Ling), author experience: The author is 42 years old in 2023, and I am 30 years old in 2023. If my low-carb weight loss in 2021 is the beginning of everything, then 2021 will be the first year of my awakening.

Cognitive awakening: the driving force behind self-change
preface
mind
Our attitude towards people and things
The judgments and choices made thereby
The beginning of life
like white paper
Three views are zero
decadent state
"Awake and sleeping people"
You think you are awake, but in fact you have never opened your eyes and looked at yourself
Or dare not face yourself
Most people will follow the trajectory of the times, living habitually, following the herd, blindly, and repeatedly.
ignorance
Don’t know the composition and framework of things
Don’t know the path and method of hard work
Don’t know what you want, what you can do, who you can become
Don’t know the truth of the world, don’t know the rules of heaven
Change
Make your mind clear
No more confusion
Master more skills
No longer good at anything
Take the initiative to create achievements
no longer accept the status quo
Author experience
First year of awakening
36 years old in 2017
The author is 42 years old in 2023 and I am 30 years old in 2023
If my low-carb weight loss in 2021 is the beginning of everything, then 2021 will be the first year of my awakening.
Awakening state
pseudo awakening
Something to do every day?
Working hard every day?
Really awakened
desire from the heart
Think long term and be patient
Use the power of cognition to make friends with time
Understand the differences between people
cognitive distinction
Cognition influences choice
Choice determines destiny
Perfectly in line with my motto: Cognition determines behavior
Start to gain extensive knowledge
for
Explore the truth about the world
Understand objective laws
Learning method path
In a nutshell, we try our best to explore the way of heaven and explore the underlying logic.
Awakening
desire awakening
method awakening
Transformation and inner motivation to improve oneself
Bitter perseverance supports
scientific cognitive drive
Although the sooner you wake up the better, now is always the best time to start
Chapter 1: The Brain
Understanding the brain
Evolution
Instinct brain
A long time ago
Generation time
The oldest, 360 million years ago
Alias
primitive brain
Reptilian brain
basic brain
crocodile brain
reptile
No reason
no emotion
Cold-blooded
Such as: crocodiles, snakes, lizards
oviparous
Features
Simple structure, only one reflection module
react instinctively
Controls physiological systems
emotional brain
relatively ancient
Generation time
200 million years ago
Alias
monkey brain
mammal
Have emotions
Such as: monkey, cat, dog
constant body temperature
Features
Limbic system of the brain
Help seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and enhance survival advantages
Control the subconscious mind
rational brain
very young
Generation time
2.5 million years ago
Alias
rational brain
thinking brain
Humans stand out from mammals
Human-specific brain areas
Features
Neocortex of the prefrontal area of the brain
It truly evolved between 70,000 and 200,000 years ago.
The origin of language, creation, technology, and civilization
Let humans become the absolute dominant species on this planet
Graphical history of brain evolution
At the same time, pay attention to the relative position of each brain area: the distance from the heart is different.
Anatomy of the brain
Analog computer configuration
Instinct brain
The motherboard is the oldest
emotional brain
Graphics card is old
rational brain
CPU latest generation
Poor compatibility
This is why people's behavior is always contradictory and their emotions are always unstable.
Reason for incompatibility:
The switching of living environment and habits is too rapid, and development and evolution have no time to adjust.
On the grand timeline of evolutionary history, there are 10,000 years of agricultural civilization, 300 years of industrial civilization, and 50 years of information civilization.
Therefore, even though humans no longer need to save energy for survival, the genetic level has not yet had time to adjust.
Therefore, we are actually "primitive people in suits and leather shoes" at this stage.
Three abilities
Instinct brain
emotional brain
powerful
rational brain
Weak in strength
Reason for weakness
1. Different evolutionary years
Instinct brain, emotional brain
360 million years (100 years old), 200 million years (55 years old)
rational brain
2.5 million years old (less than 1 year old)
Compared with the other two brain regions, it is too young and has a low degree of evolution.
2. The order of development is different
Instinct brain, emotional brain
Development is complete at 2 years old and development is completed at 12 years old
rational brain
Development completed at 22 years old
Therefore, a 2-year-old child can move flexibly, a 12-year-old child can be relatively emotionally stable, and a 22-year-old child can be relatively mentally mature.
3. Location resources are different
Instinct brain, emotional brain
Location
Closer to the heart (blood supply priority)
resource
Both contain nearly 80% of the brain’s neurons
rational brain
Far from the heart, it has fewer neurons
Due to disadvantages in location and resources, although the rational brain is advanced, its control is not that strong.
4. Different operating frequencies
Instinct brain, emotional brain
In charge of physiological activities and subconscious mind, 11 million times/second
rational brain
Master managerial thinking (high energy consumption), the fastest is 40 times/second
The computing efficiency is low, so it appears weak. It is difficult to multitask, and the memory bottleneck is easily reached.
Diagram showing the developmental sequence of brain areas
result
Since the rational brain has the lowest control, most of the daily choices and decisions are derived from instinct and emotion.
Three tasks
Instinct brain
All for survival
Result: short-sightedness
emotional brain
Seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, seek refuge in ease
Leads to: instant gratification, instant gratification
Shaped by the pressure of survival, it also creates various human natures
rational brain
Rational thinking may seem useless, but it actually promotes human progress in the long run.
Causes: Delayed gratification, anti-humanity
Fitness, learning, thinking, restraint
The main task of the instinctive brain and emotional brain is to preserve life and survive. Therefore, the high-energy-consuming thinking behavior of the rational brain will be inhibited by the first two to save survival resources.
