What are your first principles (rules you've developed) in your life? - eviltoast

People who make me feel like crap or worse off then when I encountered them consistently are written off and out of my life

Doesn’t matter if its family, nobody is entitled to your attention and suffering and it does nobody any real good for you to succumb to the inevitable dysfunction it creates in your life and relationships and also material conditions.

      I find I easily forgive myself if I immediately recognize the fuckup and have a plan started or in the works to prevent it happening again.

      Kind of a “fool me once: shame on this. fool me twice: shame on me” alto its infinitey recursive so I would simply start back at 1

      If I learn a lesson from it, its money in the experience bank and I trust myself to make it right and mitigate it as best as is possible

      It helps with inverse thinking cuz now you know one of the paths or constituents of failure in whatever the endeavor and you have the opportunity to get closer to success next time
