Prolepsis is something I have been thinking of a lot. I see it as the origin of virtue.

If we all intuitively know these universal preconceptions, our purpose becomes how to discern from the universals the particulars that serve the Whole.

That "how" at a global scale is the hardest part for me to nail down.

It’s something that is definitely “simple but not easy”. It’s nice in that it limits the scope though. Progress can be focused on these very specific moments of applying our preconceptions.
