Free will is bullshit, you're a meat program or as neuroscientists call biocomputationalism but you are agentic. What's the difference? Free will is this bs notion of choice disconnected from causality. Your decisions are the product deterministic mechanims that implement countless algorithms that govern behavior in response to stimulus. Agency (being agentic) is an autonmous self guided system, not a puppeted machine by an outside force. The agentic don't have free will but do guide their own actions based on algorithms that make up their meat program. They will like a digital program produce the same outputs given the same imputs for both are deterministic and not magic as many prions believe.

You're right, but there is an exception. Men who are awakened to the reality of the universe and are able to be honest, fully acknowledging reality and his own will for what they are and put this knowledge in practice, both by action and inaction. The importance of acting and making choices that align with what your real self drives you to do and be.
I would say in practice, doing three essential things that have been identified by several wise men:

Follow

1. Let go of all attachments. Enjoy them as they exist but not hang himself to the impermanence of things.
2. Be fully present in the present while being transparent and knowledgeable of the past (pattern recognition) and acceptance of root causes, no matter what. Reality is what is, but you can influence it.
3. Always be working to build a better future, assume the role of visionary and be on a constant quest to experience, evolve and become both better and transform your world around you.
