question - How to respond when asked what's the point or what's in it for me?
- When these questions pop up,
- it can be a good opportunity to engage the other in deeper dialogue to reveal deeper complexity

- questions
- what's in it for me?
- what's the point?
- human attention
- progress trap
- complexity
- emptiness
- adjacency relationship
- These questions come up a lot
- and they indicate a normative human tendency:
- When we focus attention on what we consider salient in our dynamic, constructed salience landscape
- at the same time it defocuses our attention from the rest of the field the salient feature occurs within
- In this sense, overemphasize on these questions could reveal a dependency on oversimplification
- of the complexity inherent all every life situation
- Remember that emptiness, with its pillars of
- intertwingledness and
- change
- pervades everything, everywhere and everytime
- and such continuous oversimplification is tantamount to
- ignoring the empty nature of reality and
- leads to progress traps
