I picked up asking for step-by-step breakdowns on simple tasks

Seeking clarity can sometimes lead to too much detail. Your coworker's diagram for boiling water shows that. Have you thought about setting limits on what needs a step-by-step?

A big client wanted roses with chemical sprays. I said no and they walked. Did I mess up?

Kinda depends on your bills though. Turning down good money over some sprays might not pay the rent.

Looking back, I should have known that show would get axed after one season

Streaming services basically train us to wait now. Their own algorithms cancel good shows fast, so fans get paranoid. Makes you not trust any new series until it's already wrapped for good. Netflix is the worst for this honestly.

My family bible repair under a deadline shifted my thinking

Isn't it better to have it kinda fixed than falling apart? I mean, if pages are already loose, glue might stop them from getting lost. Like, my grandma's bible had pages that would just slide out if you touched it. Sure, glue can stain, but if you're careful, it holds things together for now. Idk, maybe it's worth the risk for a reunion where everyone can see it. Rushing isn't great, but sometimes you gotta work with what you have.

Why does nobody talk about the first time you mess up freelancer taxes?

Check the penalty rates from the IRS. They're often just a small part of what you owe, not some huge scary number. Setting up a payment plan is usually simple if you can't pay right away. The big deal is remembering to do it, not the fine itself.
