After being only for a few months deeply into EA I already realise that discussing with non EA-people makes me emotional, since I “cannot understand” why they are not getting easily convinced of it as well. How can something so logical not being followed by everyone? At least by donating? I think there is the danger to become pathetic if you don’t reflect on it and be aware that you cannot convince everybody.
On the other side EA is already having a big impact on how I donate and how I act in my job—so in this regards I do feel much more impactful which certainly makes me happier and more relaxed in other parts of my life as ambitions shifted. Does that make any sense?
Would also be interested on research if anyone has!
Good question I also think about!
