Dear Mary

Thank you for your insight and experience. Good not being good enough is not that bad of a habit. But it's easier to be ignorant (or stupid) or mediocre. And for many, that feels right. When I read your comment, a quote instantly popped into my mind:

"It almost always happens that when the immediate consequence is favorable, the ultimate consequences are fatal, and the converse.” - Claude Frédéric Bastiat

I see most of our childhood 'curses' as superpowers later when/if we overcome them.

Keep the faith!
