What if we related to every action we make through the lens of a software developer? Acting like we are in the glorious and powerful position of being able to upgrade the fate of mankind – with every move.

We can ask ourselves when poised to act – will what I’m doing be an upgrade, keep the status quo or bring the overall function down?

Question yourself the most rigorously if an action feels good in the moment and produces a sense of quick satisfaction. Are you about to add to the glorious workability of the whole?

Rhetorically, its easy to ask: What is the point in making things better for yourself if you don’t make them better for the community around you? Arguably, that is the fundamental purpose of evolution, no?

I’m here to remind you, you are that powerful. Upgrading mankind at every turn. Or not.
