Hello, El Capitan!
So, Mac OS X 10.11, El Capitan, is here! Feature-wise, I’m totally excited about El Capitan, yet… I’m uneasy about installing. Yosemite went so astonishingly badly, I’m just nervous. Though, as I think about it, I’m getting disgusted by my absolute cowardice. I got into OS X at 10.2, and I haven’t missed a release day update until today. That’s upsetting. I can’t let being scared dictate anything, I’m letting it dictate too much. El Capitan is just the thing I’m up for talking about right now.
Well, then, tomorrow… I update.

Michael, I’m not familiar with any of your product references, but I endorse not letting let fear of the unknown dictate your actions.
One bit of advice I keep in my head is, “Do one thing every day that scares you” (It’s from “Everybody’s Free to Wear Sunscreen”, which you probably remember from the late 1990s). I’ve often told myself those words when I was hesitant to try something new, go someplace I’ve never been, or start a conversation with a stranger. I’ve never consciously tried to do one such thing every day, but if I had I imagine I’d be better off, in terms of personal growth.
go for it 🙂
