The Best Type of Doubting: A Scrappy Notebook, An Honest Car Dealer, and Real Benefits

Giving the benefit of the doubt is one of the smoothest and simplest ways to give yourself less stress and more peace in your day. This episode shares a memory, organizes the most basic needs for well-being, and offers one simple bit of wisdom. A little coincidence, a good story about a car dealer, and a whole lot of honesty helps to bring the point home.

An old notebook holds a clue to the importance of the great story about giving “the benefit to the doubt” (or in this one case, not giving it.) This act of giving holds a key to happiness and ease in life. This episode looks at the difference between cynicism and skepticism in order to unlock the door to human connection.
