Stop thinking of it as a battle and start thinking about it as a BALANCE.
you can& #39;t be logical all the time it& #39;s fucking hard.
you can& #39;t be logical all the time it& #39;s fucking hard.
Don& #39;t put your emotional side and your logical side at odds,
and expect yourself to side with the least appealing side.
Don& #39;t be hard on yourself,
that& #39;s a tough position to be in!

spark a balance between the two.
