Undrugged, Naked Ramblings

So I would like to take a moment to discuss where free will lies.

Free will lies deep in the thought.

When you make decisions regarding actions, you choose between two options at a time. You pick the option which you think will bring you the most pleasure.

Then, there's the matter of instant gratification versus long term well-being.

Complex questions require creative solutions, which require your brain to think off the beaten path.

Which requires thinking where there is more of a cognitive leap between concepts. Because thinking on the beaten path is easy. You have to think off the beaten path, think of not so closely related simply associated concepts.

In order to do so, you have to delay gratification. Because there is more space between thoughts, it requires a greater push and longer period with gratification, when you are moving from thought to thought. Because thoughts in themselves are gratifying.

So basically, your ability to think creatively comes down to your soul's ability to delay gratification.

Does thinking in itself bring pleasure? Yes, thinking brings pleasure, because if you didn't you wouldn't do it.

So what free will comes down to is, the choice between thoughts of equal pleasure value. So you get gratification from thoughts.

This is how I philosophize when I can't concentrate. For the love of God someone give me some Adderall.
