Don’t be so optimistic about your ability to “process information healthily”. You are more of a slave to your instincts than you think and can’t always know whether you’re actually doing a good job at this— literally, it’s not possible to faithfully introspectively this.

The belief that you have control over your actions leads to better outcomes either way, no matter how true that is in reality. This has been found mostly with the idea of free will and internal locus of control.

Don't be so pessimistic about your own ability to control how you process information, you can control this a lot more than you think, apparently.

I wonder who will fare better: the fools who don’t know their limits, or the ones who underestimate theirs?

Considering I'm pretty much as content I could be in life, and I know others who live their life pretty much opposite from what I do, and they're also content with their life, I think there is room for both types of people to be happy and fare OK :)
