What I hear from the self-help gurus online is if you’re going to assume something assume the best. Funnily enough, my Grandpa Fish used to say the same thing. (According to my aunt, whom I trust. Though idk if I ever heard him say this myself.)
If you’re going to assume and use energy might as well make it positive. One day I was theorizing to my shrink and she said, “You don’t have evidence to say otherwise, so why not believe it’s as you want it to be?” And that kept me happy for a month.
Then I realized I was completely off, but it wasn’t a sad offensive thing. It was just, “Oh… I wasn’t right.”
Did it send me to delusion land for a couple weeks? Yes, but it’s a fun place there. Very similar to a hallmark movie. Nothing better.
So… if you’re going to use your energy, make it worth it.
