Artificial Traps

Most people get too busy, setting “artificial traps” for themselves. This clogs our brain and slows down our career & life progress.

Top 3 traps to avoid:

  1. What will people think?
    • Reality: everybody is busy thinking about themselves.
    • People DON’T even think about XYZ star all day long.
    • So mere mortals like us, should not worry about what people think.
  2. What if I fail?
    • Reality: you can fail infinite times, but to win you just need to succeed big, may be once or twice.
    • This is called as taking and winning asymmetric risks.
  3. Am I good enough?
    • Reality: Our personality fluctuates over time.
    • We are not the same people that we were 5 years ago.
    • If we are not good today, we will be better tomorrow. Provided that we work hard.
