Default The Human Mind / Human Properties

In my oppinion you can split up the human mind / human properties into two blocks , one that is the stable block , it creates , it thinks of new ideas , new ways to solve problems , it's caring , generally new ideas , it tends to feed on success and wellbeing .

The other one is the destructive part that contains aggression , greed , anger , jealousness and alot more, it tends to feed on damage no matter what sort of .

You can clearly tell that the destructive and the productive parts of the human mind play a big roll in our acting , if not in the majority of the cases , they can take people over , specially in affective actions .

Somehow I tend to say that the destructive part seems to take over more easily , again specially in affective actions , special situations that kind of "overload" or "overheat" our way of thinking , our built up system, so that social and other values can be dropped for an amount of time and react accordingly to any situation that pushes stress etc. onto the individual .

Now to the productive part , it's the other part that defines our being as creators , we brought ourself to a whole new level , life to a whole new level with our way of thinking , with the ability of analyzing , of valuing proceedure of any kind and in any area , may it be science or social life .
It's mainly fueled by our will to gain and to discover , to invent and to reinvent , simply by one of our main attributes which is curiosity .

So the question is , which one is the stronger attitude , in the view of the whole of our actions , as I said before I tend to think the destructive part seems to be more "explosive" , more loaded , if not even waiting to burst out on certain occations , the constructive part is the more constant one , it seems to be alot more stable if not even the isolator for the destructive part .
