What does it mean to deal with the mistake effectively? Does that mean how much benefit you get? If you’re trying to fix a mistake with a root cause then I don’t think you’re gonna do that changing your mind about a specific issue. There’s still errors causing failures at goals. You didn’t deal with the mistake effectively there. I think I kind of found out more about my issues with reading CF. I used to get so much anxiety when I read something from CF. It was like CF was causing that anxiety even tho it wasn’t. I learned that if I’m more curious than accepting about the things CF says then I wouldn’t be so anxious. I think I have an anxiety issue, but I still learned how to interact with CF ideas more. I’ve been able to reply about CF more in the last ~2 years than I have the last ~10 years. --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.criticalfallibilism.com/t/replying-to-postmortems-help-address-causes-of-errors-dface/2235)._
