Going to a meetup would help, if one is in your area. Just being around people who thought more “rationally” than I did improved my thinking.
If not, have you read the sequences yet? This would be an excellent time to do so. Even if you have, rereading some of the more pertinent ones might help.

Anyone living west of Pittsburgh with a car?
Also, I’ve read parts of it, so maybe I should go back through.

Which sequences would you recommend?
For sequences, Mysterious Answers, Reductionism, and How to Change Your Mind. For individual articles, I would suggest How an Algorithm feels from the Inside, Making Beliefs Pay Rent, and Mysterious Answers To Mysterious Questions.
