@Teatime Thank you - this is valuable feedback.
But what about your personal experience, if you don't mind sharing? How does self-improvement work for you?
Do you relate to anything I said here:
the way I see Pe and ‘freedom’ (working inside me, personally) is in having all this energy and desire and hunger, and feeling alive when i am able to c…

In my case, I see Ne as more of scout of the best the best, but it can't in itself rank priorities (Ji) or implement any kind of regiment toward any of the goals it has its eyes on.

The main difference seems to stem from two opposing core epistemological assumptions:
A – To know a thing, you must step outside of it and observe it

I don't really understand the problem. So, what happens if people see someone is online?🤔😀
