About This Quote

Some are imprisoned by their own perception of reality. Some people will try to convince themselves that they can't do something that they really can. They will convince themselves that they aren't good enough, that they don't deserve it, and other such silliness. The thing about trying to stop something from happening is, once you start down the path of trying to make it not happen, you find yourself unable to anticipate or recover from the consequences of your actions.

You waste time, energy, and sometimes money on useless things like "sabotaging" projects and changing the faces and names of projects and plans. This is a tremendous waste of time and energy, and it's easy to tell when someone is doing this. If you ask them what they plan on doing instead, you'll often hear things like: "I'm just going to start all over."
