Learn to trust your gut.
You’ve seen this advice many times and it’s sounded silly every time and so you’ve ignore it.
The advice is, stop ignoring this advice. If you don’t know what it means, ask questions.
Well it's not that I'm ignoring the advice, it's that sometimes gut tells me it's a fart but then it's way more than what my pants bargained for.
I dunno man, my gut says everybody secretly hates me, I'm an imposter at my job, the world isn't worth saving and having kids is a fallacy because they'll just grow up in the resource wars, among other very negative things, I've learned to trust my gut maybe half the time
