Perfectionism cranks up an error-hunting prior. If you're always on the lookout for what is wrong, you're bound to find it. (Or create it.) Deferral of joy is a self-fulfilling prediction. Relaxing these priors can bear immediate fruit. Tomorrow with Shamil Chandaria dandelion.events/e/c1ez7

Descartes flirting with emptiness :) "though on approaching the fire I feel heat, and even pain on approaching it too closely, I have, however, from this no ground for holding that something resembling the heat I feel is in the fire, any more than that there is something similar to the pain"
