When I try to argue with myself to tell me that I should be more satisfied or optimistic, I discover a little battle.

I usually start exclaiming, well if I'm content I'll never improve, or if I'm overly optimistic I'll make mistakes.

Choose your biases wisely. I think I'm going to try to shift my bias toward tone of optimism.
