since the "best way" is the most efficient, most productive and satisfying way, why do we stumble around these paths of self-deception, taking sideroads that go nowhere and backroads through Life's brambles and thorns, snakepits and dead ends? I think that it is because we are led by our egos that, in their eternal need to be "right" will stubbornly course over hot coals, fall through the tissues of lies, flailing and screaming inside, while trying to appear in control, so that others are tricked by these deceptions into following the same paths........monkey see...monkey do.....pretty stupid, I think.......our calculations are thwarted by circumspective avoidance of the consciousness of motivation and purpose.....carried by the plights of the will on the backs of runaway emotions, to destinations short of our hopes and dreams........
