Love this insight for career and other hard decisions in life: "Rather than try to perform endless thought experiments to gain clarity, we can choose a direction and then create the reasons for why we did so. That is to say instead of making the right choice, we have the power through our actions to make the choice right." That is generally how we live, but without this explicit clarity to our justifications for actions. I can also see a dark spin on this that explains the current state of politics in the US.
