Why You'll Never Make It.

It follows you everywhere.


Like a ghost whispering in your ear.



Every room you walk into.



Every phone call you make.



Every action you take.



Each person you talk to.



Every shop you go to.



You have the sense that you are a fake.



That your intelligence is not enough.



That you aren’t attractive.



That you don’t have enough money.



You feel like the person you are talking to is smarter and better than you.



You feel like you are lucky just to get by and survive.



You don’t invest into yourself because, deep down, you know you are not worth it.



You don’t speak up at that meeting because you are afraid.



Afraid about your job.



Afraid what they will think about you.



Afraid to be seen.



This is the reality of having no confidence and selling yourself short.


The truth is:
You are who you think you are.
Not better. Not worse.


If you think you are not enough — you are not enough.
If you think you are enough — you are enough.





What happens when you think you are not enough?


Visualise with me for a moment.


Read each line.

Stop.

Imagine what’s happening in detail.

Feel it happening.


  • You eat a terrible diet filled with junk food and have low energy all the time.

  • You have acne all over your face.

  • You don’t go to the gym because you “don’t have time.” Each year your body looks worse.

  • Your doctor diagnoses you with high cholesterol and hypertension.

  • You have to take medication till the end of your life and will probably die earlier.

  • You drink alcohol every weekend to stop feeling the pain.

  • You don’t get that promotion and envy the person who gets it.

  • You don’t start the business and hate people who do.

  • You don’t buy nice clothes for yourself and settle for looking like an average Joe/Jane.

  • You don’t buy the car of your dreams because it’s “too expensive.”

  • You don’t get the apartment you want because you could lose your job.

  • You slack on taking care of yourself and look unprofessional and unattractive.

  • You don’t approach the woman/man you like and say to yourself that “you aren’t so attracted to them.”

  • Your family doesn’t respect you and walks all over you.

  • Your partner is thinking of leaving and building their life with somebody else.

  • Your relationships get worse because you don’t respect people who spend time with you.

How could you?

Well, you don’t even like to spend time with yourself.

Your dreams are dead.

And you killed them.




Is that the life you want?

A life of regret and pain?
A life of broken dreams and hopes?

I know you don’t.
Stay with me.
I’m taking you somewhere.
I will tell you how.



So what about the other side?


What happens when you think you are enough?

Again, visualise with me.

Read each line, stop, and imagine.

  • You eat a healthy, nutritious diet and have high energy.

  • You have spotless skin and you are glowing.

  • You go to the gym. Each week you look better and become more attractive.

  • You look in the mirror and love what you see.

  • You don’t need to go to doctors.

  • You are in perfect health.

  • You will probably live to 100.

  • You can run, cycle, swim, and do outdoor activities with friends.

  • You wake up with enthusiasm and hunger for life.

  • You get that promotion and a huge pay raise.

  • You start your business and give yourself and others a life of your dreams.

  • No more worrying about mortgages, debt, budgeting, unemployment.

  • You buy everything cash and are free to do whatever you want, with whoever you want.

  • You buy yourself high-quality, premium clothes you really deserve and look like a successful and prosperous individual.

  • Today you are buying the car of your dreams — the exact color, brand, and accessories you imagined.

  • You get to drive it every day, in style, knowing that it’s yours, not the bank’s.

  • You live in the apartment/house you’ve always fancied, in the city you always wanted to live in.

  • It’s modern, spacious, and designed exclusively for you.

  • You approach the woman/man you like and ask them out on a date.

  • It turns out they also liked you, but were too afraid to make a move.

  • You have a wonderful time together.

  • You are a role model for your family — a mentor, somebody they can count on.

  • They ask you for guidance, help, and advice.

  • You and your partner are madly in love. Like in the movies.

  • You know you’ve met your soulmate — someone you were meant to be with.

  • All your relationships get better.

  • You spend time with people you like, admire, and respect.

  • You like spending time with yourself.

Your dreams are your reality.
And you’ve built it.



Selling yourself short and not believing in yourself is like cancer.

It starts slowly.
But when it spreads, it’s unstoppable.
And it kills you.





Here’s exactly how you can build faith in yourself and unleash the power of self-belief in 3 steps:



1. Realise how successful you are right now.

The problem with being ambitious?


You are rarely satisfied.


No matter how much you achieve.

It’s like climbing a mountain.


The higher you go, the higher you can see.


The higher you can see, the higher you want to go.

You also underestimate the level you are on — because it feels easy to you.


But is it easy to others?
Of course not.


But you don’t compare yourself to them.


You compare yourself to the best in your field.

Now let’s give you a reality check.

Pick one person you believe is successful.


Write their name on a piece of paper.

Now think about 5 things you are better in than this person.

Example (for me):

Mark Zuckerberg

  • Net worth: ~245B$ —> he probably wins here.

  • Relationship —> I have no idea, but my girlfriend is way more attractive than his wife ;)

  • Fitness —> My body is better. I’m stronger, and I’m sure my fitness level is higher. Mark could use some bench press.

  • Style —> Don’t get me started. Mark, get an image consultant.

  • Lifestyle —> He probably lives in a constant state of stress. I don’t. I’m free. He has obligations to shareholders; I can work with whoever I want, whenever I want.

Mark was a funny example, but choose someone you actually know.
This exercise will help you realise they are not superhuman.
And you’re not behind.

2. Build your library of achievements daily.

Get a journal.

At the end of each day, sit down and write:

“I am proud of myself for…”

Name 3 things you did that you can be proud of.

Examples:

  • I am proud of myself for waking up on time.

  • I am proud of myself for eating a healthy lunch.

  • I am proud of myself for not using my phone before bed.

It doesn’t have to be big.

But small things become big over time.

This helped me when my self-esteem was at its lowest.

You give yourself evidence.

Do this daily for at least 3 months.

3. Ask yourself:

How would I behave if I had 10x the self-belief and confidence?”

Seriously. Ask it.

  • How would you react to this problem?

  • How would you treat this person?

  • Would you approach that girl/man you like?

  • Would you start the business?

  • Would you quit the job you hate?

  • How would you speak to others?

Guess what?
You can behave that way.
Right now.

You just gave yourself 10x more confidence.

It’s simple.
Not easy.
But simple.







Don’t sell yourself short.
Don’t settle for less.

You are a diamond.
Treat yourself like one.

Much love,
Adrian

P.S. 

I recorded a podcast episode on the same topic.
Listen to it to fully understand the idea.

Your level up will only come when you upgrade your mindset.
