If They Can, Why Not You?
When I want to do something but I start to come up with excuses like:
“Yes, but I’m not like that.”
“Yes, but I don’t have the discipline.”
“Yes, but I don't have their resources.”
“Yes, but I don't have the time.”
“Yes, but I'm not smart enough.”
A question that helps me overcome them is “If they can, why not me?”
I’ve heard plenty of stories about people who achieved what I want, despite starting in situations like mine or even worse. I’m sure you can find them too.

It really helps if you internalize the idea.
