The meta of just deciding to think and feel differently for the sake of higher goals is one of the least understood life hacks. Everyone else who never bothers to think about thinking (meta cognition) feels like an NPC in comparison. You start to realize you can basically control people because they aren't controlling themselves (an admittedly dangerous thing to realize).

But it all the more helps you to appreciate that by controlling yourself, it means other people can't control you that way. People who care about humanity share this knowledge with the world rather than turning it against people who haven't come to realize it yet.
