Every person I've interviewed who made it has one thing in common:

A delusional amount of self-belief.

Not confidence.
Delusion.

They didn't know how.
They just knew they would.

Complete ownership over their life.
Zero belief in reasons they couldn't.

That's not talent.

It's a decision you make daily.



I write a weekly newsletter where I unpack these ideas.
