If you're not in control of yourself, who is?
- Psyonic 16y agoGood point, but on the other hand, if you're already in control of yourself, how can you gain more control?
- zackattack 16y agoThis could get weird if we don't define our terms. If your "self" is your mind/attention, then sigzero is right by saying complete control is impossible; the human mind is too whimsical to ever be fully reined in. But we can consciously course-correct...
- Oxryly 16y agoSelf could be your mind/attention, but there's no reason you can't expand your idea of self to include your ego, mind, entire body. I suppose the question is: will you take responsibility for what goes on within your skin?
