"There was an interesting passage I read, how the humans are cultured to prey on negative feeds. Nothing new, but I rather mention it.
The excerpt:
"We cant fight it: evil is more powerful and more plentiful than good. We are more sensitive to negative than to positive things."
Sales/marketers employee this tactic." — Jan 10, 2020 03:18AM

“Don’t always consider all your options. Don’t necessarily go for the outcome that seems best every time. Make a mess on occasion. Travel light. Let things wait. Trust your instincts and don’t think too long. Relax. Toss a coin. Forgive, but don’t forget. To thine own self be true.”

“The only calibration that counts is how much heart people invest, how much they ignore their fears of being hurt or caught out or humiliated. And the only thing people regret is that they didn't live boldly enough, that they didn't invest enough heart, didn't love enough. Nothing else really counts at all.”
