Good sleep is often the cure for most issues... And seriously underrated.

What you said in another post.
It's tough to know how much we alone are responsible for our thoughts and actions, because we're kinda never alone. We live in an environment that affects us all the time in ways we don't even realize.
The following link shows Chris Langan's resolution to Newcomb's Paradox. It deals with determinacy and indeterminacy, etc...

Hmm..
So my subconcious is deciding my life? Perhaps that is why I am able to resolve difficult problems after sleeping. I will have a complex issue I am thinking about but wont be exactly sure how to approach the problem. So I'll sleep on it and either during a dream or when I wake up.. I'll just know how to approach the problem and resolve it.
So the subconcious mind is the core of a person? I know the subconcious has a much greater capacity than the concious mind but I did not know it was the source of.. you.
All of this, on my end, is an assumption, ofcourse. I assume the subconcious must be providing the information to your concious mind.
It's interesting. Many times I have sat in the bathroom, as a child, just staring at myself asking the question "why am I doing.. what I am doing. What controls me. What made me do that." For hours I would do that. Try to mentally find the source of.. myself.
I don't understand why it concerns people so much that their concious mind is not the source of their.. self. I believe it is best that we do not control our own breathing or other bodily functions. So it makes sense, logically, that the concious mind would be a completely seperate partition from the concious brain. That they coexist under the authority of the subconcious.
