There's always room for computer error, and more like, human error.
Imagine if something like this happened to Dropbox? Ooooft.
I had a breakdown a few years and tried to change a lot of things at once — it didn't really work! You can read some more of my thoughts about this at https://gumroad.com/l/reset-your-brain
Reading this makes me wonder if a better place for it would be somewhere on the outside of your doorway... :)
