# Chapter Three
CIVILISATION'S HABITUAL RUTS

Other animals repeat instinctive behaviour – humans repeat learnt behaviour.

Civilisation depended on focusing to learn, copy, and repeat behaviour, skills, and ideas. Humans have been developing a one-sided way of sensing and managing life for hundreds of thousands of years.

Slowly we have become overwhelmed by the inherent repetitions of more and more learning. Modern civilisation is reaching a breaking point.

At the same time, our focused way of life has become blind to panoramic sensing.

All other animals need to use both their focused and panoramic awareness in order to survive.

Chapter 3 is still developing. I know i have an original viewpoint on life, i hope what i've written so far is understandable. I'm sure there are better even simpler explanations, but it all takes time.
