That seems to fly over a lot of heads. Anyone who actually meditated will tell you the process of fixing yourself through meditation is painstakingly slow, you mostly become aware of how your mind does not do what it is supposed to, and if you stop meditating you quickly lose all progress.

What the post describes is essentially some form of micro journaling to build a cached hashmap of the thought patterns you want your mind to have.

Interesting to hear meditation described this way—gap. I’ve followed (as a neophyte) the works of Thich Nhat Hanh, and if asked I would say he describes meditation as a practice of focus. Not that I see any incompatibility with the idea of gap in meditation. I quite like it.

Also interesting is the notion of gap as I hear it used in psychology to describe post-traumatic stress.

In the first case the gap is too quick. In the last, it’s too long.

Also, in literature, another definition describes irony as having a “gap”.

“Gap” is obviously polysemous in these applications, but contain the same notion of spacing (which is also critical in music and art!).
