Why you suck, and can’t improve
You suck, you’re shit, you will never change. This is your destiny, you can’t change this because this is true.
A lot of times you think that you can just become the next Elon Musk through hard work, yet when the stars are aligned with you, you will never become what you want to become.
There is a very large extent of luck involved in success, and that’s why you will never become what you want to become.
Those success stories are merely a manifestation of humans’ confirmation bias and survivorship bias.
They don’t ever tell you what those same qualities of diligence and creative thinking have rendered millions bankrupt, whilst only highlighting the success cases.
So what do I do? Rot in shame?
No, you do, you can thrive off of your “plague”.
You suck, but what makes you “suck”. Can’t get the top 10% in class? Can’t get a million by 25? Can’t get a girlfriend before graduating college?
The only thing that sucks is that people define “suck” for you.
You don’t suck, Elon Musk doesn’t suck. If you want yourself to suck, then you suck, and Elon Musk sucks.
There are always things that can make you suck, it’s only a matter of you letting them get into your head or not.
