Let's be honest, this is us taking a few terms from a few neuroscience and cognitive psychology papers and running with it.

There are two claims in this post: Initial goals get adjusted as we discover operating constraints, and it is easier to work with fewer variables to pay attention to.

I didn't like these sentences in this post:

- "I see this in wannabe <people trying>..."

- "Here's what happens to those brave enough to actually begin ..."

Here the author was brave enough to put themselves on a pedestal; like a true wannabe profound.
