@tantramar Because it's annoying and frequently kind of paralyzing. I used to tell my clients that depression lies- while secretly believing it all myself. Fuck brains.
@OldAndCranky brains. hmm. people are just faulty logic running on flawed wetware. too many shortcuts, incorrect conclusions, and too much wishful thinking.
I’m amazed anyone ever gets their shoes on.
as for your particular brain’s lies — deploy the good, useful ones strategically, and abandon the rest with unbridled joy!
@OldAndCranky for me, paralysis comes from fear — specifically, fear of making a mistake.
usually, in my case, doing nothing ends up being the bigger mistake.
I’ve also learned that I can course-correct — even when I’m in the middle of making mistakes — usually enough to arrive at a successful outcome. But I need to keep my head down and keep plugging away because, when I stop to think, paralysis gets a chance to set in again.
