The Stories We Tell Ourselves

For an innovator to be an innovator, you have to decide you can because only then will you. This is not self-help. This is being who you want to be. If you want to do something then stop telling yourself all the reasons why you won’t do it or why it will never happen. Those are just stories. Just start focusing on doing it, trying it, learning about it, grappling with it and then one day — voila — it’ll happen. Embody the idea and the idea materializes. The narrative precedes the action, which precedes the outcome.
