We Are What We Create

I've heard the Carl Jung quote "we are what we do, not what we say we'll do" a decent amount. I'm sure there is meaning behind it in relation to talk being cheap and actions potentially holding greater significance. I don't like other ways that this quote is interpreted.


Rarely, are we perceiving the actions of another individual accurately for what they are. "Why", is the psychological origin of entropy for everything. The reasoning as to why someone does any particular thing is not always easy to know. Influence and inspiration is relative but a common reasoning for why.


Determinism is an important part of my philosophy and worldview. I see what we do as a reaction to our environment and what we do is irrelevant without context. Therefore, we are not what we do. The most accurate statement would be, we are what we create.


What we create, is unfortunately so easily shrouded out by what we do. We are the origin of entropy for everything we do and are the only ones who can change what we do. The choices we have available are determined by our environment which directly limits what we can do. We are always limited by the choices we can potentially make. What we do is often linked to what we create but doesn't need to be relative to what it is.

My name is Nick Miller and I am a backyard philosopher. I have created what I call a meta theory of everything which logically conceptualizes anything and everything. I plan to apply it to any thing and every thing I possibly can.

Nothing IS. Other than what IS.
