Thoughts about rules and mistakes

A bit philosophical (possibly psychological?), but I feel like I can expand upon this idea into something good:

I was thinking the other day that every time I've made a major mistake in my life (and I can list several!) - when I go back and do the retrospective, in every single case I find that I broke or forgot one of my own rules (of thumb) on what to do and what to avoid.

And then I'm often dismayed or upset with myself at first because "I should have known". But on the other hand, these mistakes can be used as confirmation that my general rules of thumb were correct, and I can use them as encouragement to ensure that good ideas I have are integrated into my life.

What do you think? Has anyone experienced this?

Moving to Substack!

Starting today, all your paid subscriptions will be moved over to substack!

I'm still a huge fan of the locals platform, but with my small audience, and desire to publish podcasts and articles directly, substack is a better fit for The Local Maximum right now.

The substack is at localmaximum.substack.com - you should be getting some emails for the latest episodes. Always feel free to reach out at [email protected]

Returning to the Local Maximum Soon!

Folks - I know we've been on hiatus for the last few weeks, but I'm looking forward to getting back into the Local Maximum, and also supporting our move over to substack! I hope to reach out to you individually as well!

Happy holidays everyone!

Let's disrupt our festivities with some thought-provoking insights into our future.

In this week's episode, Max and Aaron finished their discussion on "The Fourth Turning is Here" and talk about what may be in store for the rest of the Fourth Turning Crisis and what the next several decades might look like as a result.

Make sure to tune in as you welcome the new year!
