Survival is core to us. Everything else comes later. This is apparent in how our brain structure is built. Our brain has a triune structure. The structure has a reverse hierarchy. When you are fighting for life, your reptilian brain takes over. It is all about keeping you breathing, supplying oxygen and keeping your survival on. It shuts down all other functions. Have you seen someone fighting for life? They can’t think and they don’t care about donuts at that time.
