To only do one thing is understandable, might work, but lays you out in the open, can more easily be thrown to the curb. Easier to destroy a simple structure harder to break up a complex one.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"bsm8i\" data-offset-key=\"dkg9c-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"dkg9c-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"dkg9c-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"bsm8i\" data-offset-key=\"9p22o-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"9p22o-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"9p22o-0-0\">When I&#8217;m waiting for good news, like results of a grant, I \u00a0imagine bad news. Never that it is likely that the grant goes my way. If I day dream I filter it towards the kind of rejection letter that will show up, seems useful. And when the rejection letter comes it&#8217;s no big deal, it was already known. \u00a0It&#8217;s not like I&#8217;m so immature I need to spend time removing all of it&#8217;s vowels as if I get momentary revenge on the frustrating process of trying to convince gatekeepers that they should hold their breath and trust me.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"bsm8i\" data-offset-key=\"eou1d-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"eou1d-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"eou1d-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"bsm8i\" data-offset-key=\"dhq6l-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"dhq6l-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"dhq6l-0-0\">Got the email this morning thanking me for my radio idea and telling me they already have this covered and maybe I should ask so and so.
