Valuable advice you've got here! At the end of the day, when one follows your advice, one ends up forming habits based on your advice which leads to what we were trying to avoid in the first place — knee-jerk reactions.

As a matter of fact not being predictive already makes one predictive in some sense.

Since history keeps repeating itself because humans keep repeating the same mistakes, we can mitigate this by:

Learning, unlearning and relearning

When I wrote this post... I wondered if a single human being would understand it, or see value in it. I'm impressed! Congratulations. You're very different than the people around you.

This part, I'm not fully understanding though. Are you saying my advice of finding people who are evolving is bad advice?

Learning, unlearning and relearning

Wow. An excellent idea. It's hard to realize -- that is what we can do, and should do...

He is saying that your idea/ advice wont change much. It's not bad but people will be trapped in the same knee-jerk even though they think they're doing something else. Something which they decided.
