Rant on gullibleness

I'm beyond frustrated because I've always been gullible. While i've tried to fix it, I've been unsuccessful. I hate myself for this. I wish i was different and at this point I feel so hopeless. Everyone i come across is just so smart and surpass me in every way. I just feel like such a stupid failure in life. Rant over.

I’m thinking about this and I can totally understand. Some people are very convincing or hard to read. I imagine the best way to gradually come out of it is to not say anything, react or agree. Go and have a think about it on your own and think about the likelihood of it. Trust your instincts always. I read something interesting sometime ago, actually quite recently about the difference between wishful thinking and intuition. “Wishful thinking tells us we have to keep questioning it and telling ourselves and intuition is silent”.
