Who makes things “cool”?
And why?

How does all this work?
Why do some things do not make sense in terms of functionality?

Although there are deeper subjects to uncover these questions,
A lot of it comes down to social conditioning.

Social conditioning is when we have been influenced by social, by peers, by authority figures to believe something that may or may not be true.

It could be an idea, a concept, material items, art, fashion, pretty much ANYTHING and through the sheer power of media and social proof we can BUY IN to any of these things and become CONDITIONED to believe they are true, even though they may not.

In this video I give the example of formal attire and clothes.

Haven’t you ever wondered WHY formal attire is formal attire?

And WHY formal attire seems to be counterproductive to actual functionality?

Like WHY do we need to wear a three piece suit and tie in the summer?
WHY do we hear heels and dress shoes with no grip slip and fall and erode our backs over time?

Are heels really beautiful?
OR
Have we been conditioned to BELIEVED that they are beautiful through sheer marketing?

So with the power of good marketing, we can even create BEAUTY.

A watch isn’t that functional in today’s world,
But because through marketing we have attached STATUS to a Rolex watch, we still buy it.

And these are just a FEW examples of social conditioning, and are just scratching the surface.

What about your beliefs, your thoughts, your personality and what shaped your character?

What if they too, are a byproduct of social conditioning, which may not be the best for you.

So I hope this information helps YOU become a CRITICAL thinker, instead of just going with the herd or listening to an authority figure.

Operate from first order principles, and you can escape from the pulls of upside down functionality.

Hope this helps!

Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for watching! 🙏

Go crush life! 👊
