In practical and pragmatic matters in life, I don’t trust myself when it comes to:
- Putting myself into social situations in which I will talk a lot, and lose track of time.
- When I plan; things always take faaaar longer than you expect them to. I always try to add a 50% buffer to almost everything I do.
- I don’t trust myself to keep promises. Thus it seems the optimal thing is to never make a promise.
