How Your Mind Really Works: NJT Circuits in Daily Life
Understanding consciousness amplifiers through everyday experiences
Scenario 1: The Morning Coffee Amplifier
What You Experience You wake up groggy. The thought "coffee" appears faintly. As you smell coffee brewing, that faint thought becomes an overwhelming desire. By the time you reach the kitchen, you NEED that coffee.
What's Actually Happening A weak signal (sleepy thought of coffee) gets amplified by a sensory trigger (smell) into a strong action drive. Your brain isn't just "deciding" - it's running an amplification circuit that makes weak desires strong enough to cause action.
The NJT Circuit This is an NJT⁺ (Positive/Excitatory transistor) in action:
- C (Cause): F3 (Life/Vitality) - your body's need for energy
- B (Bias): Sensory input with N8→N9 badge (trigger→response)
- E (Effect): A14 (Acquisition of sustenance)
- Gain (β): ×N4 = 5× amplification in morning state
Coffee Circuit:
F3 (Life) ──[p=0.2]──┤ NJT⁺ ├──[p=0.9]──→ Get Coffee
│ │
Smell ─┴─[N8→N9]
(trigger)
Coffee Circuit:
F3 (Life) ──[p=0.2]──┤ NJT⁺ ├──[p=0.9]──→ Get Coffee

(trigger)
Key Insight: Your consciousness uses amplifier circuits just like electronics. Weak signals become strong actions when the right "bias" (trigger) is applied. This isn't willpower - it's circuit physics of consciousness.
