Most people tend to underestimate themselves excessively. Many say, “Humility is the virtue,” perhaps influenced by social environment and education, but it’s more about recognizing mistakes and limitations than about one’s own potential. That is, self-judgment based on experience. Of course, there will be mistakes and limitations in the future that we haven’t yet encountered, but the possibilities and achievements will be just as numerous. If we assume the odds are about equal, then we shouldn’t need to underrate ourselves. Excessive self-confidence or showiness is a problem, but so is underconfidence. Too much or too little is called arrogance. In Christianity, it’s considered “sin.” - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Humans probably may use less than 5% of the function of a human brain in their intention. If easily these senses of pleasure, hallucination, or pain can be used or our intentions control memory circuits, human beings will be destroyed themselves. It’s very great luck to be uncontrollable at our discretion. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts"
