Torture yourself. Uncertainty is discomforting. If thinking and deciding is easy for you - you are not doing it. Intellectual honesty is masochistic.

We must be very different people. Whenever I realise I’ve been wrong about something for a long time, I’m fairly excited about it.

And I’ve been very stubborn in the past. The biggest struggle was being able to accept being wrong in public. It’s much easier to have a ‘holy shit’ moment in private!

You could say the same thing about physical exercise.
