Good or bad

Was it good or bad? This is a question we ask ourselves constantly. You may judge something on the spot. But is this necessarily true? How often has something you judged one way, turned out to be the other? In the end, nothing is good or bad by design, you make it so.

If I made a mistake, it's bad. But decision making comes with occasional mistakes. Then it's the question if and how I can remedy the wrong repercussions. Sometimes I can't, then I must keep going. Worrying about past decisions is ... Spock would say "not logical". And "When the ship lifts, all bills are paid. No regrets" [Lazarus Long again]. I can learn from the past, but I can only change the future. Stop worrying.

Experience in life includes both options. Good is not possible without bad on a long term. Best regards.

In any case, judgements are noisy and it is probably good advice not to follow blindly any intuitions but to reflect on the first impulse. Worth asking your self how well you would do in the Cognitive Reflection Test?
