The sweet spot of worrying about other people's opinions is caring enough to learn from them, but not so much that you conform to them.

It takes humility to rethink your views in the face of disapproval. It takes integrity to put your personal values above social approval.

“Novelists and historians have known for centuries that people do not deploy the powerful human intellect to dispassionately analyze the world, but rather to rationalize how the facts conform to their emotionally derived preconceptions.” -W Bernstein

When we look for what we like in a room full of people, there is so much beauty to behold. Humans do small acts of service for each other when there is proximity. My smile behind my n95 is big enough to light up the sky.

Neurotic perfectionists worry about other people's standards. If they struggle, they procrastinate: "I'm not good enough."

Productive perfectionists aim for their own high standards. If they miss, they try again: "I'm only human."
