It's kind of like [[collective competence]], if we consider our bodies and our brains as a functioning as [[Systems]], we can The [[dual-subject fallacy]] is an idea from neuroscience that we mistakenly model our brain as being a separate entity from ourselves. Ignoring our body’s inputs into the brain excludes us from [[Learning]] our true selves. It makes us think that we should be blind to all of the inputs from the valuable sources like how our [[emotion changes the world we are in]], and how [[adaptive expertise]] requires us to listen to our instincts. ##### What would the opposite argument be? This is a useful model, and although [[all models are wrong but some are useful]]. Thinking about our brain in isolation simplifies our model. Unfortunately, this simplification is probably an attempt to move a complex issue to complicated, which is a challenging move for the long term. [[dealing with complexity]] is part of understanding how a person things. [[Everything should be make as simple as possible, but not simpler]]. tags: #note/idea | #on/thinking | #on/brain ##### Sources: Mudrik, L., & Maoz, U.
