每日原则: 个体的激励机制必须符合群体的目标

自然创造了各种激励机制，促使追求自身利益的个体带来整体的进步。一个简单的例子是性与自然选择。自然给了人类极多的从事性行为的激励，主要表现为该行为会提供巨大的快乐，但它的目的是促进基因的进化。通过这一方式，每个个体的需求都得到了满足，也为整体的进化做了贡献。

To give you a quick example of nature creating incentives that lead to individuals pursuing their own interests that result in the advancement of the whole, look at sex and natural selection. Nature gave us one hell of an incentive to have sex in the form of the great pleasure it provides, even though the purpose of having sex is to contribute to the advancement of the DNA. That way, we individually get what we want while contributing to the evolution of the whole.
