Cavemen With Cell Phones [NOOK Book]

Overview

Cavemen with cell phones?

Isn’t that exactly what we are?
Shlepping around the planet, hunting and gathering and fighting
like it’s still 50,000 B.C. Have we really changed all that much
from our stoop-shouldered grunting ancestors?

This is the truth about human behavior!

We act out of instincts.

Primitive animal instincts.

And there appears to be 8 of them:

Hunting
Gathering
Worker
Warrior
Inventor
Attraction,
Mating
Nurturing

What effect are these instincts having on our lives?
Why are we not even aware of them?

Birds fly south for the winter. Fish swim upstream to spawn.
These are instinctual behaviors. Some people will shop at
bargain stores and buy 100 rolls of toilet paper and a gallon jug
of ketchup. Is this instinctual behavior? Is it Gathering Instinct,
motivated out of the fear of running out?

We are animals.

And, our behavior is more similar to the behavior
of other animals than it is different.

We eat, sleep, drink, converse, have sex, entertain ourselves,
raise our young, poop, and pee. Everything we create, invent,
design, and build is done to enhance our experiences of eating,
sleeping, drinking, conversing, having sex, entertaining ourselves,
raising our young, pooping, and peeing.

WHAT we do hasn’t changed, HOW we do it has changed dramatically.

We don’t live in caves anymore, but we still act like cavemen.
