One of my favourite Naval Ravikant quotes is “you are a story that you tell yourself”. For better or worse, you get what you think about. You could be the hardest working person on the planet but if the story you tell yourself is that you’re average, then you’ll live an average life. This is why the most successful people are often described as “delusional”. The stories they tell themselves are incomprehensible to the average mind. If you want a better life, tell yourself better stories.
