I try to believe the things that are evident to me. Sure I can have faith and consider something evident to me when in fact it was just my imagination, but I would consider that a mistake because I value knowledge over ignorance.
This is why I try to doubt as much as possible. And I do that because I consider it rational. I don't think I can hurt myself this way, I am not afraid to doubt a lot. It comforts me. For example, I don't think excessive doubt could lead to paranoia because if I was paranoid I wouldn't be doubting my doubts enough.
