And you mention "risk evaluation" as a part of that...
How do you do that ?
First try to crawl, then stand, then walk, then run, then run while throwing stones, then run and jump onto a bicycle, then run and jump on a motorcycle, meanwhile climbing trees, rocks, then get a job building scaffolding (in the old days, bare foot, no harnesses or anything, just a t shirt, shorts, belt and spanner to do up the clamps). Meanwhile from age tiny learning how to hammer tacks, then small nails, then 4 inch nails... And on and on and on and on ever more. Such as ending up studying 3rd order partial differential equations, Fourier transforms, Airy wave theory, elastohydrodyanamics, quantum mechanics etc etc having first learned to count to three.
So by the time I took on scaffolding I was already adept at the necessary skills and could evaluate the risk.
Now I can evaluate the risk of staying inside the Taupo caldera for a few days. Investing in a company. A million things.
It becomes almost magical. So now I can invent the world's new money. It's as though anything and everything become reality if I want them to. Of course nothing can conflict with the four forces of the apocalypse or the current state of the DNA conscious realm but they are the mechanism of creating the future not in opposition.
Should I risk going for a walk and should I wear a mask? Easy calculations. But when I actually calculated yesterday I was surprised at how many covid people I might come across.
The purpose of risk is to create reality, such as mobile Cyberspace for example, or the world's new unit of value or New Zealand's new government. Risk is the mechanism = the method.
It's not to be better than others. That's a trivial irrelevant matter. But it's fun to do better at golf. Being better than others only lasts until you die. Or get a bit older. Creating reality lasts forever because each creation is the launch pad for the next creations which couldn't happen without the prior causal relations.
It's teleological. We don't know where we're going but we're on our way. What fun!
Be the creator of reality rather than merely increasing entropy ... the line between entropy and creation goes through the middle of each person's mind.

“The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either -- but right through every human heart -- and through all human hearts. ... And even within hearts overwhelmed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained. Alexander Solzhenitsyn” |
