A Letter on Cognition: The Fundamental Path Often Overlooked


Dear Reader,

Greetings.

This letter is not meant as a lecture—only as a gentle reminder of a problem we’ve long ignored:

A problem that directly concerns the entirety of our lives.

We seem to understand the world,

But in truth, we merely know certain words.

We’ve received education and been filled with vast amounts of knowledge,

Yet we have rarely stopped to ponder:

How do we actually recognize this world?

We have never truly acquired a clear and correct tool for cognition.

Let me offer a brief framework to describe how I understand the way we engage with the world:

Information Gathering + Thought Structuring + Experiential Perception

Theory ←→ Practice

Yes, this may appear mundane—something everyone claims to know.

But the truth is, those who truly grasp and use this tool properly… are incredibly rare.

Please forgive my directness—this, in itself, is the heart of the issue.


Let us begin with thought structuring.
