System Name
The Executive Office - NeoCortex
Metaphor
The top floor of your executive headquarters. Every critical decision, every conscious thought, every order that defines who you are, originates here. This is where you run the company.
The Metaphor (Extended)
You are the CEO of your headquarters. Everything about you, your thoughts, your life and your unique identity reside within.
Department Overview
The primary executive division for your thoughts, language, perception, planning and conscious choice.
Filter
Processes internal and external information and recalls data back to you until reviewed.
Function
Contains a thin outer layer of Grey Matter. Four lobes Frontal, Parietal, Temporal, Occipital - each running an internal department, role and process.
Security Feature
When Intrusive Thoughts, Negative Self Talk or Impostor Syndrome flood your system, your Threat Detector (Amygdala) overrides the Executive Office bypassing logic, language and conscious choice. You're no longer running the company, someone or something else is.

Summary
When your Cortex (NeoCortex) is bypassed, your operating system can be altered to run subliminal messages, embedded commands and software you didn't know existed. What gets installed in you becomes a new version of you, one you didn't authorize.
Understand the Executive Office, and you understand why identity gets lost before and after midlife.
