      when i was younger i was consistently one of the smartest people in the room for a long, long time, and while that made me an insufferable asshole in many ways it also gave me a kind of self-trust i'm grateful for and that i often see people lacking

      There's a piece of advice I got from Chris Hadfield's book "An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth" which I've found very helpful and basically nobody sensible does AFAICT, which is "figure out the next thing that's goign to kill you". Turn anxiety into concrete problems to solve.

      And it took me a while to notice that the reason this works well for me and very few people is that I have an intuitive belief that concrete problems are soluble and that if they're soluble I can probably make progress on them. It's a valuable thing to keep hold of.

      Also I've found this advice is very good for transferring self-trust from one area to another, because it lets you turn things you have doubts about into things you know you can do. I'm way more emotionally competent than I was about six months ago, in large part because of this.

      friend of mine came up with an exercise once where you 1) pick a thing you don't know how to do 2) pick a thing you do know how to do 3) spend 5 minutes explaining to yourself why they're secretly the same

          (I like that exercise though - I think it's a good framing for part of the core learning process in the fully general system)
