The Metacognition
The Metacognition


Me: I am so addled on what's to be done with this constant dissatisfaction in whatever I do.
I always feel something is missing.
Myself.: But you're doing good.
Me: what's doing good? Can you define it?
Myself: Doing good is being...com.. comfortable?
If you're comfortable you're doing good.
Me: so to say. It still doesn't give me enough confidence to feel comfortable.
Can't you see I'm so rudderless!
Myself: Maybe. What should we do about it?
Me: We should do something about it. Rather find something that makes us happy..and.. satisfied?
Myself: But isn't satisfaction a delusion?
Mind never stops looking for betterment. There's no plateau in this graph.
It's either ascending or descending.
Me: Let's call ascending the state which you're in right now and descending could be, you getting depressed about not being content anywhere. But none of it comes to fruition.
Yourself: you're making sense.
Me: I want to be at plateau! Anyhow.
Because being at plateau can hold me well. Being there can keep me at bay from going nuts. I know I'll be happy there.
Myself: So you don't want to go up in the graph?
Me: No. I want to be at the plateau. Because plateau ain't a myth.
Myself: Great. I now see something concrete in this omnium gatherum.
Me: Infact, being there would give me umpteen things to be curious about, which would open immense learning opportunities.
Myself: I see. And a learner is always humble and someone humble is always open to criticism.
Me: And being able to take criticism itself is taking one step further towards improvement. Isn't it?
Myself: Oh yes, and Improvement keeps refining a person.
Me: And being refined in turn feels so great and satisfying.
Myself: How about I write this on paper? Like I always do.
Me: Oh it would be so great..and... satisfying..
Myself: Eureka!
Me: I should write.
Myself: Writing..satisfies my soul!
