Would Feelings Or Beliefs Be More Valid Than Numbers And Projections?

  • Base decisions on subjective or personal degrees of belief about the future such as:
  • Bad things come in threes or good things come in threes
  • I relapsed 3 times so now I’m finished relapsing
  • I have a bad feeling about going so I won’t go
