Principlev1
Set minimal intentions to notice meaning before or during
Set minimal intentions to notice meaning before or during crisis, as framing attention increases the probability that meaning will register through pain's noise.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Goals as Perceptual Filters (goals function as perceptual filters that define relevance) and Attention is a finite cognitive resource that must be (attention must be allocated to finite resources). The principle prescribes using goal-setting as a perceptual filter to detect meaning during crisis. It's actionable, general enough to apply across contexts, and derived rather than foundational.
