We constantly seek out others to help us think. We go for counselling; we lose sleep researching; we lose sleep about big decisions, such as finances and health; we lose sleep worrying about whether we’ve done the right thing; we ask for advice; we gossip; we vent; we read self-help books, consumer reports, studies, news; we choose holiday destinations about places we know something about because someone else reported on them; your GPS did not program itself; that road sign wasn’t planted there as a seed, and you wouldn’t know what the sign means – you’d have no clue what to do – if not for others knowing what you know about it and that others uptake to its dictums. (Or don’t give uptake to its dictums. Don’t trust road signs in Italy.)
