Thinking Out Loud
Observations, brief conclusions
unfinished ideas about what is happening around
and what it may lead to
Personality → Behavior → Choice → Demand → Money
“Thinking Out Loud” is a collection of MediaIEU articles ( Go directly to the materials ) about the events, decisions and changes taking place around us. We write about money, business, the state, technology, society and human behaviour. MediaIEU has its own distinct perspective on what is happening. We do not retell the news or repeat ready-made opinions. We examine the causes of events, people’s decisions, the interests of different sides and the consequences that may become visible later.
A distinct perspective on what is happening
The same event can be explained in different ways. Therefore, in the materials published in this section, we try to see what often remains outside ordinary news coverage: why people made a particular decision, how their choice changed, where the money went and what will consequently change in the system.
Some of the materials are based on the model developed by Iv.Spolan — The Fundamental Law of Political Economy. It helps us examine what is happening through the connection between Personality, Behaviour, Choice, Demand, Money and the Form of the System. We do not try to force every event into a single explanation. Some articles focus on economics and money, while others deal with the state, technology, work or relationships between people. But we are always interested in the main question: what is changing for the individual and why familiar decisions are ceasing to work. Each material can be read separately. Together, these articles help reveal a broader picture of the changes taking place and show connections between events that may initially appear completely unrelated.
Learn to analyse and anticipate consequences
You can also learn to understand what is happening more clearly, analyse events independently and recognise in advance where the decisions of individuals, companies and states may lead. This requires knowledge and an understanding of the connections between behaviour, choice, demand, money and changes in the system.
MediaIEU lectures help you acquire this knowledge, while systemic diagnostic tests allow you to see how these connections appear in your life, work, family or company. The more you understand, the easier it becomes to recognise risks, identify opportunities and anticipate the possible consequences of today’s decisions.

When does personality become the center of the system?
“ Personality ” becomes the center of the system not at the moment of its existence, but at the moment when the movement of the entire system begins to depend on its state, reaction, behavior and choice.
What is demand?
Demand in the modern economy is the fixed expression of a person’s choice that directs the movement of money within the system.
What is a product in the modern economy?
A product in the modern economy represents the result that emerges as a response to formed demand and fixes the realization of the personality’s choice through behavior.
What is choice in economics?
Choice in economics represents the moment in which the individual fixes one specific action out of many possible options, turning behavior into a definite decision.
What is behavior in economics?
Behavior in the economy represents a key mechanism through which the individual transforms their preferences, values, and motivations into real economic actions.
What is influence in behavioral economics?
Influence in the economy plays a key role because it affects the individual and, through them, shapes behavior. By changing perception, preferences, and motivation, influence determines what decisions a person makes, what demand is formed, and how money moves within the economic system.
What is Personality in the economy?
« Personality » in economics is the starting point and the main driving force of the entire economic system.
