Principlev1
Map default behaviors across cognitive domains to identify
Map default behaviors across cognitive domains to identify the meta-schemas running automatically in your cognitive operating system's idle loop.
Why This Is a Principle
This derives from Automaticity Without Conscious Control (automatic processes operate without conscious awareness), Habits as Context-Response Associations (habits form through context-response associations), Behavior requires an initiating signal to occur at a (behavior requires an initiating signal), and People disproportionately stick with default options even (people stick with defaults). The principle prescribes a diagnostic technique: examine what you do automatically when no deliberate choice is made to reveal the meta-schemas governing your default responses. This is actionable, follows from axioms about automatic processes, and provides a concrete method for auditing your cognitive OS.
