Scaling: Substrate v Interiority

Substrate is prime; interior states follow

• Habits, incentives, material conditions, and everyday social practices that scale across thousands of people)
• These factors shape behaviour directly and can be modified at scale.

Interior states cannot easily scale

• They depend on maintaining the psychological state of individual practitioners
• Organizations of thousands can implement new practices and constraints but they cannot consistently manufacture elevated states of awareness across entire populations
• Examples include HR running a leadership program over several years
