#511: The Pavlovian Antidote (Friday, October 14)

We've been conditioned not to trust. Don't talk to strangers. Nothing's free. And so on, and so forth.

In today's world, it's hard to trust people; it's just the way things are. But mistrust breeds fear, and left unchecked, fear can easily turn into paranoia.

Fight how you've been conditioned. Give unfamiliar people and situations a chance (within reason, of course).
