Great post joel. I particularly agree with your "lizard brain" description. It is something I try to get rid of more and more. On the other hand it also acts as a sceptical element within my thinking, which I perceive to have some value too.
Also I really like your description of Chaos and Order. To me it feels as if we can have order one day and with just one piece of feedback or one additional piece of knowledge - BAM - Chaos rules again. But that's not bad, is it? It helps to never settle. Something I believe you are after too.
