I behave as if I'm living in a tribe of 100 people and thus have a reputation/consistency of identity to maintain. As a consequence I treat low cost actions as if they were high cost.
I understand what you mean (I think), but would you care to expand?
If you do mean what I think the optimal change would probably be an increase in boldness/daring, right?
Obviously enough I'm reading things in what you wrote from my own perspective. My own last lost opportunity to be daring was not kissing a lovely lady when it seemed like the opportunity had presented itself and she was leaving the country within the next two days. Best outcome would have been some of that lovely sweaty exercise, worst that a group of strangers I'm unlikely ever to meet again are pissed off with me.
