John Well you suggested "disgarding beliefs about mission and purpose which further should allow you if you choose to, to decided who you will be today and what arbitrary objective you will pursue today no constraints... multiple identities, selection of a sequence of careers and adventures". O.K. I'd say that's one way to reduce one's compliance to any particular narrative, way of life, authority, authenticity or lets say submission to the authority of a belief, a belief in a mission in life, and purpose. For those who like specific descriptions, this might be interpreted by an anthropologist to be something to do with monkey's reacting to those preconscious seretonin impulses in the brain that might in turn be something to do with socially shared beliefs, recognised power 'hegemonic power' ....perhaps. I for one agree with liberating oneself from undesirable beliefs that might be something akin to a monkey haplessly doing his or her business in the jungle. My challenge is not to be as mutiplicitous about it as you suggest, but instead to focus on one field, specialise for an entire life and strive to become a genius in that field. An aside: some say postmodernism is an authoritative view on life that says there are no authoritative views on life, on no one such view...hmmm......I'm saying your suggestion is postmodern, and I'm suggesting to choose one view/one field and become a real genius. |
