Generalizing one's interests

• Is there any meaning in generalizing Things I’m Interested In to Generalization?

  • When thinking about my interests, I often want to generalize them.
    • But I wonder if there is any meaning in doing so.
    • Generalizing in terms of meaning and generalizing in terms of time direction may be different.#direction of generalization
  • Also, I feel like there is a recursive logic at the core that says “I like it because I like it.”
    • Even if we forcefully generalize such a thing, it might not have any meaning.

• There are various remnants of attempts in Things I’m Interested In.

• From the perspective of a third party, this seems to be a somewhat incomprehensible thought process.

  • What I’m doing is:
    • ① Thinking about whether I am interested in various subjects.
    • ② Trying to come up with a model that can explain them in a general way.
    • It feels like refining the model through repetition.
  • However, ① is obvious to me, so I often omit it in the process of writing and contemplating.
    • I rely on my memory in my head.
    • But it’s not obvious to others.
