Thank you for taking the time to engage @bigsilver , always appreciate that!

I must admit, I realise this 'slotting' is partly wired within the human brain as a survival instinct...from back in the days when people had to hunt to survive. 😉
And I'm not superior to that first trigger in my brain myself for that matter. But I always try to be aware of it, and to not let fear control my mind. And I must say I had the best of times and lessons because of it already.

It's definitely true what you say though, it can be a 'work' sometimes to consciously go against your 'gut'.
Thank you once more for sharing your thoughts!
