      Courage is probably the highest ROI character trait right now & the most valuable form isn't one most of us have practiced. It's not taking the leap, it's maintaining focus & enthusiasm while you're in freefall

      Feels like this is probably only true if you don't include the catastrophic negative results that some suffer when combining courage with poor execution. Though I would argue it is still conceptually true if not literally.

      yeah, it is simultaneously true that many people are too risk-averse to their own detriment and that it is still very possible to take risks that result in catastrophic unrediable costs

      a very, very tragic thing is the population of people who take their own lives directly or via e.g. opioid addiction due to a loss of meaning or a chronic intolerable anxiety over loneliness or poverty, conditions that IMO can only be mitigated via powerful self-sustaining hope

      it's not anyone's "fault" for falling into such despair, but I think we could all be part of creating a culture that's protective against it — a better social safety net is part of the answer, but without a visceral hope/optimism accompanying it, it's not sufficient

      my current thinking is that a balanced structure of practical activity and consciously maintained delusion is how this is addressed; the problem is it would appear to be impossible to propagate this idea while propagating good judgment about what delusions to have along with it

          what do you mean by “consciously maintained delusion”? what’s the delusion here?

          mass scale life coaching does not seem like the most practical intervention

          I do think creating a new religion from the ground up is probably the best solution. Something without a built in wealth siphon or other exploitation, but with the viral reach and hunger of one of the existing religions seems the only real path.

          Taking practical action on managing delusions is building a hierarchy of nested delusions at various resolutions, none of which contradicts the others, each of which inspires the correct practical actions, the most important action being adopting the next resolution delusion.
