Being mistaken about something is not a flaw in a person’s reasoning and neither is being unskilled in constructing or analyzing logical arguments. Where a flaw does occur, however, is in the fact that the worse a person is at such tasks, the less likely they are to realize it, the more likely they are to overestimate their abilities, and the less likely they are to realize that others’ efforts are superior. This seems to be especially true when it comes to logic and critical thinking: people imagine they are already good at it, but they lack both the basic skills to do it well and the skills necessary to realize that they aren't doing it well

Taoist psychology on the other hand relies on the status of the "Shen" heart-mind and the root causes of illness based on negative emotions that might dominate/harm a internal organ:
Heart- excessive joy.
Lung- Sadness.
Spleen- pensiveness/worry.
Kidney- fear.
Liver- Anger.
