How do you deal with feeling foolish?

<p>Just as I am posting this I am wondering about the difference between feeling foolish and feeling shame. That is a different conversation.</p> <p> </p> <p>I was particularly interested in this topic because I was feeling foolish about something I had done the week before (I share it in the video).</p> <p> </p> <p>I know from talking to lots of people that I'm not the only person to deal with feelings of foolishness that keep coming back every time certain memories resurface.</p> <p> </p> <p>Gudjon Bergmann shared an example of someone actively trying (and succeeding) to make him feel foolish.</p> <p> </p> <p>Dr. Rhonda Bompensa-Zimmerman made a really good point about how feeling foolish is related to judging ourselves as somehow inadequate.</p> <p> </p> <p>While Sara Oblak Speicher noted that sometimes the willingness to be foolish is what brings zest to life.</p> <p> </p> <p>What do you think?
