Thousands of years of evolution has created our highly intelligent minds capable of learning complex concepts. Unfortunately, just like everything in life, our evolutionary advancement has become a double-edged sword. The conscious mind is like a computer that can quickly learn from its environment and experiences. Rules of thought and behaviour are constructed through various forms of learning, including conditioning, social learning, logical mental processes, and memetics. Throughout our lives, we rely on our conscious minds to program, plan, organize, and interact on social levels and yet we often fail to recognise that the conscious mind can only provide 5% of our brain’s activity. The most powerful tool available to us, the one that holds 95% of our mental capacity, is the one we most often ignore: our subconscious. When we no longer pay attention to our subconscious processes,
emotional and psychological problems, social conflicts, personal
limitations, and other such dilemmas arise. When we look around at the
people, communities, and nations around us, we often find various forms
of depression, frustration, poverty, sickness, and general imbalance.
This is the result of the “evolutionary glitch” embedded in human
neural networks through years of brain development, learning, and
conditioning. It is what we term an acquired “Persona." In the book The Evolutionary Glitch, as well as in most conferences, courses, and presentations, 6 types of Personae are identified. Understanding Personae not only helps a person understand him or her self, but also the people around them. It is the first step to improving social interactions, diminishing the strength of the Persona, eliminating problem-causing patterns, and learning to be in-tune with your subconscious self.
