nice try, bub, but this new spin on it won’t fly, either.
you’re still thinking in terms of the ‘will’ being a phenomena… as if it were some kind of thing separated from action and brought to realization, revealed, through introspection. it’s when deliberative intentions collide - when one finds oneself thinking about what one is doing and then changes one’s mind about what to do - that the feeling of this illusory agency originates. the belief in ‘will’ is a side effect of that peculiar layering of ‘inner’ experience when standing back and recognizing that one is acting and doing. the belief that changing one’s mind corresponds with a new kind of act that directs and distributes the act rather than being just another act, is the source of the misunderstanding.

you won’t get W’s point the first time around. maybe not even the second. so read it a few times and cross your fingers. the fly can be let out of the bottle, i assure you.
