Sometimes, things happen that feel subjectively significant in a way, things that seem to throw earlier estimates out of the window and lead to recalculations - at least it feels like that - like an event happened that requires an answer. But it doesn't really condense in words, at least in my case, it seems like a sheet of sure belief in different things than I have actually learned of, in some unspecified ramifications.
How would one uphold rationality in the face of such a, well, learning experience?
It's often useful in cases like that to put your thoughts into writing.
Too confidential.
Even if you do not share your written thoughts with anyone, writing them down can help to organize your thoughts into a form that can be more easily analyzed and evaluated (by you).
You can always write it down into a well encrypted file on your computer.
