Self-made myths

One of the hardest things to do is remove the illusions we tell ourselves in our mind.

• The stories
• The rationalizations
• The self-deception
• The self-doubt
• The self-judgment
• The things we ignore
• The things we won’t let go of
• The things we pretend not to see

I don’t know that we ever eliminate every illusion and see a truly unfiltered reality, if there is one. But we can put in effort to see through and break down the illusions keeping us bound to an average version of ourselves. We need to.

Discipline is the shortcut. Do the work.
