The reason the human brain is more complex and sophisticated than that of other primates is to facilitate the establishment of social relationships. The brain develops through the senses, and humans must experience them to sense. Without experience, the human brain cannot perceive. All social experiences contribute to the development of a social brain. The broader the relationships, the more socialized the human brain becomes. Through experience, the human brain can compare and organize information to communicate effectively with other brains. To empathize, we mirror the brains of others. Who we are with is also neurologically essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Experience should not serve as a constraint that confines individuals to their past; instead, it should act as a foundation for future endeavors. While successful experiences can instill confidence, they may simultaneously restrict one’s thoughts and actions, leading to potential lapses in judgment. It is noteworthy that my achievements may not have solely stemmed from my abilities but could have been attributed to fortuitous circumstances, often arising from the missteps of others. A valuable experience should not foster arrogance or dismiss the fallibility of unwavering self-assurance and disregard for alternative perspectives. To mitigate the risk of failure, one must cultivate humility. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
