The dangerous fallacy of "You can do it."

RE: The dangerous fallacy of "You can do it."
Quote: But the most limiting thing is thinking that you can't do better.  If you think you can't do better, you won't.  If you think you can do better, you just might.

Nail head hit.

I suspect that a lot of ‘dead end jobs’ are that because people hang on to them hoping for things to get better and - for a variety of reasons - don’t make the effort for change.

Tired of digging ditches? I don’t blame you, it’s miserable work. But if you aren’t going to do more than ‘hope’, you’re off the low end of my sympathy meter.
