this type of constant second guessing is not a virtue.  It does not serve one well, as much as total and utter conviction does.. even conviction of falsehoods is useful, cuz it does not matter what one believes, only the fervency of his belief.  Such certainty is the key to being a great salesman, because absolute certainty is contagious.  It overwhelms the audience and sways them to believe as you do.
Once you find the truth it can be very rewarding, though. There is a reason certain people are built like you. It's a high risk high reward strategy
