Pain and Pleasure

For programmers, they know that behind all the complexity of the software and hardware of a computer, the most fundamental and basic of computer programming is the binary code, 1 and 0. Put it together like 1011, 0011, 0011, it can perform multiple functions. Suprisingly, the human brain also has this most basic and fundamental program imprinted in our brain. The binary code for our brain are pain and pleasure. Combine it together, it forms the very basis of judgement and action that we take in our daily lives. For every reality that we are facing, our brain quickly compute whether the activity is for pain or pleasure. Facing any danger situation, the brain will automatically know that this will lead to pain and we will either run away or face head on. We will always try to stay away from pain and moving towards pleasure and therefore making the basis of our own personality. For example, people who link pleasure with playing sports, will always move towards sports. But there will also be people who link pain with sports and therefore avoid sports. This judgement forms the personality of the person. By knowing and be aware of this basic programming of our mind, we can actually manipulate and create the action that we desire in life and fully achieved the life that we want.
