The cradle of wisdom

To me, thinking is something anyone can do. But just as you can practice anything in life, you can practice thinking. What sets you apart, then, is critical thinking. Your ability to see reason and logic. To construct arguments without fallacies or biases. It is important that you keep challenging yourself, and open yourself up to being wrong. And essentially, there is no shame in being wrong, but there is great shame in being wrong, and refusing to admit it.

With that grand introduction, I welcome you to my personal thoughts and musings. I can't promise there will be something for everyone here, and what I do end up putting up may be scarce. However, I always appreciate feedback and I enjoy debates. So if you have something to share, by all means, comment or message me directly.

I love the feeling of success. When you aim for something, and you achieve it.
It feels wonderful to get it done, it feels wonderful to be recognized and acknowledge by people you look up to.
But why is it, that as soon as you get home, you start to cherry pick apart what you did, and find flaws no matter how well you did? I seem to have a habit of expecting myself to be perfect, especially if I expect myself to be good at something. I've even tried to get incredibly upset when something good happened to me, because I myself didn't believe I was good at it, and being told I was good broke my own image of myself.

In any case, I'll try to deal with these emotions since I just got over a huge hurdle in my life. Short update, I know, but whatever!
