Every day, the funnel collapses around us a tiny bit as we make our way towards death. The final destination will always remain a mystery as anything can happen at any time to redirect the course of the funnel.
Yet, it is our initial perspective that attempts to set the course within the funnel based upon the single output of our Triaxial Yin-Yang.
Analogous to driving, the goal during the journey is to try not to hit anyone nor anything, while trying not to be hit by anyone nor anything, and while matching speeds more or less as we maneuver our way through traffic.
Also, as with driving, try to make smooth preemptive course corrections as the further you drift from setpoint, called "error," the greater the course correction required to re-achieve the original setpoint.
