Study Notes
GenoTypes and Worldview
- "Optimistic worldview" refers to a biological perspective on how a GenoType reacts to environmental challenges.
- Different GenoTypes evolved to tackle distinct challenges, influencing their worldview and survival strategies.
- Hunting GenoTypes developed traits for proactive survival, while agricultural GenoTypes adapted to growing food.
- Key challenges for some GenoTypes included famine and scarcity, whereas others faced wars and conflict.
- Ancestors adapted their behaviors and physical attributes based on the challenges they encountered, shaping their descendants' GenoTypes and worldviews.
Reactive vs. Proactive Worldviews
- A reactive worldview manifests as aggressive, proactive, and often hostile responses to threats or needs.
- Key phrases illustrate this mindset: “Kill that game!” and “Run through the forest!” underscore survival instincts.
- Physical attributes associated with reactive GenoTypes (Hunters and Explorers) include strong muscles, increased bone length, and robust cardiovascular and immune systems.
- This worldview is linked to inflammation response, suggesting that physiological reactions and behaviors are intertwined.
- The patterns of reactivity in these GenoTypes are largely established in early childhood development.
