3/ It's tempting to fall in love with ideas and to start looking for evidence that you're right (confirmation bias) instead of trying to uncover the very likely scenario that you're wrong. This is a constant battle for me. I'd imagine this is true for others as well.
4/ I'd say the value of the "emotional intelligence" component of research and venturing into the unknown isn't something I've heard talked about much but it's very real to me.
5/ In fact I'd say most log jams in my progress in research revolve around allowing ego to take over rather than being disciplined about following the evidence. In particular, clever theories of mine are particularly difficult to discard when the evidence just doesn't pan out.
6/ I'm just putting this all out there in case anybody feels weird/alone/stupid about running into these same situations.
One of the reasons I got into research is because of it forces one to be "emotionally intelligent". For someone as emotional as me, this was a big challenge, and I have only recently begun to get a handle on it.
I didn't do it for that reason (didn't really know that was such a big component of it), but I'm glad I did for that benefit!
