One function of feedback is that it can be used to shape how you want to be. This can be a helpful strategy for navigating life.
But, there comes a time when you have to learn to trust something, without the benefit of feedback to reinforce your sense of things. You are forced to rely on something else, within yourself -- to live with the consequences of your own choices...to learn from them, rather than relying tentatively on feedback to move forward.
It seems to me like I am in one of those 'times'.
