If I understand your question correctly, I don’t know that and I don’t think I could know it. What I wrote is about how it generally feels and this is definitely not concrete enough to guide me in rationality.
We’ve had enough historical cases of people following what feels right and ending up believing stuff willy nilly.
The only answer is, I guess, you just don’t depend on this stuff to guide you, ever. I treat it like a curious post facto observation, not a rationality technique of any kind.
BTW, I’m a sort of a maniac of recording high quality data about my moods/feelings/energy etc. in daily life and doing statistics on them. I found I can get a lot of value out of it, but probably not in the sense you mean. I’ll write about it some time.
