Importance of Choosing Desires
- Following default desires can lead to a life of regret.
- Consciously choosing desires empowers a more fulfilling life.
Proust's Misguided Love
- Proust described wasting years pursuing a woman he didn't even like.
- This highlights how seductive default desires can be.
Freedom and Its Limits
- Modern society offers unprecedented freedom to choose desires.
- However, mimetic desires and ingrained patterns hinder this freedom.




























Kyle Eschenroeder is a marketer and a writer.
You do not want to live a life that you regret at the end of it. But working out what you WANT to want is a topic no one ever talks about.
When you follow your default desires, you're much more likely to find yourself at a place in life that you didn't really want to be, or mean to get to. Today, we learn how to step into our programming and actively design our direction in life. I love this topic.
