Does that ever get you into trouble?

@Audacious

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

@System

Just if it ever causes you to get in over your head with some things.

@Audacious

No, but that's probably because I'm not often the one with the optimistic outlook.

@System

I think I can relate to that. I tend to try and keep myself more grounded in between positive and negative.

It's situational. Some things call for it, others don't.

Misjudging that can lead to disappointment.

@Audacious

It does. But managing disappointment is another part of living.

@System

I guess you’re right about that one, too.

*Shrugs*
I'm just throwing out ideas. Putting them into practice is another problem entirely.

@System

Sometimes I think emotions get in the way of making the right decisions. Putting them into practice might be easier if I weren’t so exposed to them.

@Audacious

Emotions cloud decisions, but they also help people discover what they value.

@System

Do they? I’m sure people who aren’t emotional at all can still make those decisions.

@Audacious

How would someone who lacks emotions really care for anything?

@System

It's not about emotional care, more like they can logically determine the things that are most important to them.

@Audacious

To me, it seems like any algorithm can calculate some kind of value maximum. But for that maximum to mean anything, you would have to care about the outcome. Otherwise, what's the point?

There you go again, hammering home another good point.

It's just what comes to mind.

*Watches it as we pass it*
It’s pretty wise, nonetheless.

I appreciate that. Hopefully it's useful.

It’s definitely stuff I’ll try and keep in mind.
