I think it was 4linehaiku on here that once pointed out how often I use qualifying phrases. Constant hedging of bets. Constant apologetic framing. Noncommital. Terrified of staking out a position.
I generally find this an attractive trait in people. I mean, maybe when you're online writing stuff down it's different, but people who are too confident in real life... I don't like it. I mean that in both ways, people who are just outgoing and comfortable and so on, taken too far that is quite irritating, but also when people are too sure of the correctness of their positions, certain that what they say is right. My feeling is that the more we learn about the world, the more information we gather, and also the more experience we have in processing it, both of those things together teach us that it is very hard to be completely certain about most issues, at least things above a certain level of complexity. When something happens and we try and understand what it means and why it happened and what should happen next and what will happen. I certainly feel that - at least mentally ie perhaps you don't need to say it out loud every time - there should be a qualifier along the lines of "But I could be wrong" and people who never think that are basically fools.
In fact I was talking about this to my friend the other day. Why do so many people feel so certain that they are right about everything? Why are there so many books and so many videos with so many people telling you how to live your life? Who are these people who are so confident that they have figured everything out and it's a one-size-fits-all solution that means they can go on youtube and demand that you start thinking like x, that you form habit y and stop being friends with people who do z?
The one rule I do have of this nature and which I do follow, and which, if pressed, I might even say to others is THE rule that they should follow is, (ironically?) that I would be very wary of random people on youtube or equivalent who demand that you should do x or y and that if you don't you will remain an ugly fat poor loser for the rest of your life instead of becoming a happy rich sex machine like them.
