You think leading to action leading to emotion leading to thought leading to..
I've determined this as the appropriate order, based on the following criteria:
* Action should definitely be the second item, because premeditation and postmeditation are both needed to maintain an accurate working view of the situation.
* Thought precedes emotion because I've observed that it literally cannot come after; Changing your thoughts changes your emotional responses, and if thoughts didn't come first, then all emotions would inevitably result in a feedback loop of emotion. Since feedback loops only happen sometimes, the converse is more likely (especially given that you can alter your emotional course by altering the course of your thoughts)
Ideally, each thought would lead to a matching action and emotion; This would be the definition of maximum learning potential. Each missed action reduces learning potential.
Will is the ratio between total number of thoughts and total number of actions.
The percentage between total number of actions and number of emotional responses that you detect* probably corresponds to your emotional fortitude.
* Distinct from the amount of emotional responses you actually have. Having more emotional responses than the total of actions implies dreaminess/sentimentality -- wasted thoughts; A deficit in detected emotions probably indicates emotional repression (to be precise, you do not express your emotions enough, and thus they can hide in the crevices of your mind.) |
