They told you to stay on track. One idea after another, like polite little train carriages — logic, reason, clarity. That’s how philosophy painted the mind. Neat. Predictable. Safe.
Aristotle loved it. Aquinas ran with it. Descartes practically tattooed it across his soul. Thought, they said, should be linear. Orderly. Controlled. Get on the train, stay seated, reach your conclusion. Don't question the rails.
But here's the punk truth: the real breakthroughs don’t ride the rails. They derail. They jump tracks, crash metaphors, loop backwards, and daydream forward. That’s not dysfunction — it’s the divine mess of being human.
Neuroscience even backs this up. The “default mode network” — the part of your brain that activates when you’re doing nothing — that’s where creativity lives. Where stupid ideas mutate into brilliant ones. Where you leap from tax forms to fire-breathing pigeons in 0.4 seconds flat.
Problem is, AI doesn’t like that. It can’t process chaos, only optimise it. Algorithms crave rails. Dopamine loops. Predictable outcomes. They train you to think less like a jungle and more like a spreadsheet.
Elon’s Neuralink wants to stream your thoughts into silicon. So you can “keep up.” Sounds neat, right? But when autocomplete starts finishing your own damn insights, when your ideas sound like Midjourney promos — that’s not thinking. That’s assisted compliance.
You weren’t meant to run clean code. You were built for crash loops. For strange associations. For drunken metaphors that shouldn’t work but do.
In a world of dashboards and prompt chains, here’s your edge: derail.
Let one thought smash into another. Let daydreams hijack meetings. Let the weirdest idea in the room pitch first. Because those are the sparks that AI can't simulate — not yet, anyway.
Linear logic built the past. But chaos builds the future. That’s Madsot doctrine. That’s how new strategies emerge. Not from polished templates — but from thought graffiti, napkin sketches, neural noise.
So derail. Jump the track. Think sideways. Market like a malfunction. Build like a poet. Speak like a fever dream. Because when you abandon the tidy rails of thought — you find the tunnels no one else mapped.
The train of thought was a lie. The derailment? That’s your destination.
