【Cognitive Awakening】The evolution of the rational brain and emotions

Recently, I learned a "very interesting" idea, and after practicing it, I found that it can help us better stabilize our emotions, more comfortably accomplish many plans and goals, and strengthen our sense of unity. I have compiled one of these ideas for myself to digest and for those who need it.

"Cognitive Awakening" mentioned that the attributes of the human brain are divided into three parts: instinctive brain, emotional brain, and rational brain, and these three different functions have been fully embodied in our human beings as higher animals after a long period of time and layer by layer evolution.

Although we are still primitive people living in modern society, with the evolution of the rational brain has produced a relative balance. Most of the time, we will use the rational brain to control our mentality and behavior to achieve a certain goal, but because the rational brain is the last to evolve, compared to the other two is a relatively weak existence, then when we try to delay gratification to achieve the goal, the rational brain will actually subconsciously stand on the opposite side of instinct and emotion, rebelling against nature.
