We Do Not Move Unless We Are Bothered
     REVOLUTIONARY DISCOVERIES IN                   HUMAN BEHAVIOR

The psyche is a myth.

Actions and reactions are chemical, not psychological. According to author Eddie Rafii, depression, anxiety, mania—and other so-called mental disorders—are the result of chemical imbalance. So what does that say about human nature?

Behaviology, a revolutionary new branch of science analyzing human behavior, postulates that wants and desires (joy) inspire you to move; suffering (fear) keeps you immobile. Your motions are based on the tipping of the balance between enjoyment and suffering. Rafii lays out seven facts about human motion:

  • We always want to be comfortable (balanced).
  • We move only when we lose our balance.
  • Loss of balance leads to motivation.
  • Every motion is associated with suffering and joy.
  • More suffering leads to more joy.
  • The outcome of want and fear determines motion.
  • Personality, physicality, and mental and environmental conditions determine desires and fears, and we move based on the sum of the outcomes of those desires and fears.

Assuming these seven facts, the conclusions are simple:

1. We do not perform motions based on the freedom of choice, the outcomes of our wants, and fears determines our motions.

2. Happiness as a feeling of continuous joy, doesn’t exist. It’s rather a temporary joy followed by suffering.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
Revolutionary Discoveries in Human Behavior,
We do not move unless we are bothered. Every single human motion is caused by a bothersome factor. We remain motionless if nothing bothers us.
  The scientific researches lead us to the fact, that our actions are determined by the sum of the outcome of our want (motivating force) and fear (preventing force).
  When you see a poor man, you either lose your balance and give him some money to regain your balance, or you do not lose your balance enough to spend money on him. Only two factors are involved in this scenario. The joy of regaining your balance (enjoyment) and the discomfort of spending money (suffering). Your brain evaluates the volumes of enjoyment and suffering, and the sum of the outcome of enjoyment (want) and suffering (fear) determines your motion.
  Our brain constantly evaluates the volumes of enjoyment and suffering for every action, and we perform motions where there is more enjoyment or less suffering. In other words, the sum of the outcome of our enjoyment (motivating force) and suffering (preventing force) determines our action. 
  We always want to be in balance. Discomforts and problems bother us and generate an imbalance in us, and as a result, we move to regain our balance. Suffering and joy always accompany every motion. Life is nothing but the recurrent imbalance (suffering) and balance (enjoyment). If we eliminate discomforts and problems from our lives, we will become motionless.
  Scientific studies prove that actions are chemical, not psychological. Feelings constitute a certain chemical process in the brain. Depression, anxiety, mania, and other so-called mental disorders result from a chemical imbalance.
  These scientific discoveries opened a new window into the world of psychology. This book is a simple tool for analyzing people’s behavior.
