Shamans were the first programmers. They installed a “software update” that transformed how we think and solve problems. Through ritual practices, like... • Sleep deprivation • Intense rhythmic activities (like dancing) • Social isolation • Psychedelics ...they disrupted ordinary thought patterns to break mental frames. But why did they want to break mental frames? Because your brain is incredible at pattern recognition...but this superpower has a dark side: Once you see a pattern it becomes incredibly hard to "unsee" it. You become trapped in your own mental models. This reveals something crucial: The art of systematically breaking patterns to see reality anew. Being told to "be innovative" or "think differently" isn't enough…you need practical techniques to disrupt your normal patterns of thinking. This is what shamans understood intuitively thousands of years ago.
