Looking through the prism of human behaviorism, we can marvel at the simplicity of his essence. Elementary actions lead to the elementary actions, which develop and become more complex. On the side, we see a complex system of benchmarks and targets. But in fact, all this can be described as very simple algorithms. So what is a person? A complex set of elementary education or reactions? Is there a general category of "person" in those who constantly strives to society and can not exist without it?

We are afraid of losing their identity and uniqueness when it comes to any changes in us as a person. Supplementation installing chips directly into the body, the acceleration of consciousness ... There are many things that can affect us, make us different. At the same time, most of them are artificial. So if we stay the same, if we change the foot or hand on a perfect prosthesis? Yes and no. It all depends on the purpose and our relationship to a new subject, but consider the example of a more basic level.

Imagine an accessory of a successful person: an expensive car, phone, branded clothing. Whether the carrier knows of these things, that they are "brand"? Hardly. It uses the best, because "best" is a tool for him. The owner of an expensive watch weakly imagine their device. Anyone who buys the latest phone model, is unlikely to delve into the settings, customizing "for themselves." Everything boils down to what people generally buy anything. Or is it due to a physiological need (food), or thing acts out the role of the instrument, or it is bought in order that a man could declare their status.

The situation is similar with an artificial intervention into the body. We can take pills, drugs to enter the blood stream and do it. Otherwise, we will die. We can position ourselves in relation to technology, speaking both as a fan of technology, and by the Luddites. It is those who use technology as an excuse, the brand, one of the parameters that describe our personality. By virtue of some prejudices, opinions, beliefs, we behave in a certain way it is. Accordingly, if in the real world we have to give up or take help of technology, we will experience dissonance, followed by a variety of mental disorders. Or, we can refer to the technique as an instrument. But if we can likewise relates to the body?

Our limb - tools for the manipulation of the surrounding reality, our feet - moving mechanisms. If we offer the best manipulator or a more comfortable car - of course, we are seduced by the idea. Of course, if it means to us.

That's the problem of the modern world. The fear of being among the last, or those who have almost reached the traits and died at the finish. Due to lack of funds, the risk of feeling of danger, uncertainty in the forces. Any of us can "go the distance" and by immediately go to the rest, those who aspire to a happy and beautiful future.

Our body is a tool, a temporary shell suit for a reason. Who cares what it is, if you can work, improve and develop? Ways to improve - a lot. But the real motives, goals, and preferences are different for each of us.
