Welcome to Lateral Snow

I am here to share my attempts at guiding my own emotions. There is a general theory that "emotions generated toward the external world determine one's mental health." The word "Health" is a definition, and I classify "definition" as a form of "aggressive behavior" and deconstruct it. Whether you are mentally healthy or not is defined by yourself, not by the world (myself included); my role is solely to guide you in identifying the factors that influence your emotions.

My theories are influenced by Nonviolent Communication, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind, Don't Test Human Nature, Why Families Hurt, The Birth of the Self, Antifragile, Skin in the Game, Fooled by Randomness, The Red Book, and In Search of Lost Time.Of course, there is no shortage of increasingly powerful AI.If any of this resonates with you, you are welcome to subscribe. This is not an act of charity, but a journey taken together in the "exploration of the self."There is no "strong medicine" here. The purpose is not to solve problems. This is merely a space where one can contemplate any matter and simultaneously become aware of why they are thinking about these things.

I do my best to avoid directly using the word "definition", instead focusing on "the matter itself", such as "the Barnum effect". When we directly state a definition, our brains will unconsciously ask themselves "Do the things I'm going to say next conform to this definition?" Only when a theory is being discussed will I actively seek out the "sympathy" of well-known figures.
Language is a "clumsy" means of communication. Once it is spoken, a person's behavior must serve the words they have said in order to "ensure" consistency in their words and actions.

这里是 Lateral Snow。

我在这里分享引导自己情绪的尝试。

有一个理论大意是“对外在世界产生的情绪决定人的心理健康”，“健康”这个词是一个定义，而“定义”会被我列为一个“攻击行为”并对其进行拆解。您的心理健康与否由您自己定义而非世俗(包括我在内)，我所做的只是引导识别影响情绪的因素。我的理论受《非暴力沟通》《乌合之众》《不要挑战人性》《为何家会伤人》《自我的诞生》《反脆弱》《非对称风险》《随机漫步的傻瓜》《红书》《追忆似水年华》等影响，当然少不了日益强大的AI，若产生些许共鸣，欢迎订阅。这不是一种施舍，而是一场关于“探索自我”的结伴而行。

这里没有“猛药”，目的不是解决问题，这里只是一个空间，在此可以思考任何事情，同时探索自己为什么会思考这些事情。

我尽最大努力不去直接说“定义”，而是讲述“事情本身”，比如说“巴纳姆效应”，当我们直接说出一个定义的时候，大脑中会不自觉地问自己“我接下来要说的这些是否符合这个定义”。只有当对某个理论引起讨论时，我便会主动去寻找知名人士的“共鸣”。

语言是一种“笨拙的”沟通方式，一旦说出来，人的行为要为自己说过的话服务，以“保证”自己的言行一致。
