I was a teacher, and military firefighter in Brazil, where each "oops!" in teaching and learning led me to search for deeper answers. And today, I seek to build something like effective gentleness and more effective forms of cooperation.

I liked it! It got me thinking about writing something regarding a personal filter for deciding whether an investment is worth it for me personally, or if it’s just a matter of fear.
That said, given my lmy two neurons, I find it very difficult to invest based on those criteria,especially due to certain mental blocks; I really just can't see it that way.

"but if we want to really understand the world, it’s worth seeking the truth and trying to become clearer thinkers." In what context and to what extent?

"I fervently hope that one day we will be able to save everyone. In the meantime, it is irresponsible to pretend that we aren’t making life and death decisions with the allocation of our resources."

How to not produce overthinking?

"We’re lucky to be in a position where we can have such a large impact, and this opportunity for impact is the consequence of a profoundly unequal world." How big? Based on what?
