“The map is not the territory it describes.” – Alfred Korzybski
Your potential is the territory. It’s what actually exists: the facts. For you to say you can’t make millions or the circumstances don’t permit you to approach the girl, is denying those facts. It’s possible. It’s about whether or not you believe you can. Your perceptions and belief systems represent your map. To change the territory, you have to change the map.
Stop considering the possibility that you are not good enough. It’s like accepting your map from a stranger on the street. You’re trusting their knowledge, their direction. There’s a chance you’ll end up lost.
You must rely on your own experience and vision: tested beliefs, the ability to determine your own path in life. By confronting the perceptions that hold you back and then changing them, your map directly reflects the territory you desire.
