Most people think confidence is something you build over time. Stack enough reps, enough wins, enough evidence, and eventually you just... have it. That's not wrong. But it's incomplete. There's good evidence that what you're thinking in the moment is a bigger predictor of how you feel and perform... than almost any external factor. More than your preparation, your environment, even who's standing next to you. So yes, the reps matter. The experience matters. But if the voice in your head is running a different script during the actual performance, none of that preparation has anywhere to land. Most people evaluate their self-talk as "positive" or "negative." That's the wrong filter. The better question is, does this thought help me right now, or does it hurt me? Because sometimes a "negative" thought is actually useful. And sometimes a "positive" thought is just noise dressed up as encouragement. You wouldn't judge a coach by whether they were nice to you. You'd judge them by whether what they said made you better in that moment. So why are you grading your own internal voice on tone instead of function? Your mindset isn't the background music. It's the operating system.show more

Most people treat self-talk like a pep talk — you tell yourself you've got this, you stay positive, you push through. That advice isn't wrong. It's just incomplete in a way that matters more than most people realize. The research on positive self-talk is real. Encouraging internal dialogue does improve performance. But the field has largely moved away from framing this as "positive vs. negative" because that's not actually the right question. The right question is whether what you're saying to yourself is *effective*. And negative self-talk can be effective. Positive self-talk can be useless. The valence isn't the variable. What actually drives effectiveness is something most self-talk advice never mentions: psychological distance. Here's the thing: you're probably already an expert at this, just not for yourself. Think about a scenario you find stressful — an exam, a tough conversation, a high-pressure week. Now picture a friend in that same situation texting you about it. You know exactly what to say back. You're not scrambling. You're not spiraling. Because you're not inside the emotion of it. That clarity you have for them? That's the same clarity psychological distance gives you for yourself. Your inner voice isn't your best coach. It's your most reactive one.

Jordan Peterson on why self-esteem is a myth and what actually builds real confidence. Most people spend years trying to feel better about themselves. They repeat affirmations. They journal their wins. They work on their "self-esteem." Peterson says that's the wrong target entirely. "Self-esteem… doesn't even exist by the way. It's just a pathological concept altogether." What you actually want is confidence. And not just any confidence, confidence grounded in competence. Otherwise, he says, it's just narcissism. So how do you build it? Not by changing what you say about yourself. Not by adjusting your self-talk or telling yourself you're capable. Those are surface-level fixes. The real mechanism is simpler and more demanding. "You watch yourself exceed your limits and then you think, 'Oh, look at that. There's something in me that can exceed my limits. That's your true self.'" Confidence is earned from the inside out through repeated experience of actually doing hard things. Dr Jordan B Peterson draws an interesting parallel. If you watch a friend making small, consistent improvements over time, you don't feel contempt, you feel admiration. Even if part of you is jealous, the healthy response is recognition: that's admirable.

You are not the thoughts you think. You are the thoughts you believe. So don’t believe the lies in your head telling you that you aren’t enough, you should give up and your future is hopeless. Those thoughts aren’t coming from you and their goal is to make you feel weak, powerless and discouraged. Fear divides and negative thoughts weaken you. But the good news is that love unites and positive loving thoughts strengthen you. That’s why it’s so important to speak words of encouragement and love to yourself. When you tune into the higher positive frequency instead of the lower negative frequency you win the battle of your mind.

Fantasy Isn't A To-Do List Not every fantasy is a plan. Sometimes your brain enjoys something in imagination that you would never actually want in real life, and that does not automatically mean something is wrong with you. Fantasy, desire, and behavior can overlap, but they are not the same thing. The better question is not always “Should I do this?” Sometimes the better question is “What does this fantasy give me?” Maybe it is power, surrender, novelty, attention, freedom, or just a weird little movie your brain wanted to play.

Asmongold reveals the real reason people hate capitalism "Do you know why people hate capitalism? Because capitalism is the acknowledgement that you are a failure of your own design. The reason why you don't have what you want is because you're not smart enough, you haven't put in enough work, or you haven't come up with a good enough idea to earn that thing." "Capitalism is accountability. Socialism, communism, this is group consensus accountability. And nobody ever really gets held accountable for doing something right or wrong ever. And that's it."

Jordan Peterson: "If you can't fix your room, you can't fix your life" "Why should you even bother improving yourself? The answer is something like: so you don't suffer anymore stupidly than you have to. And maybe so others don't have to either. It's not some casual self-help doctrine. If you don't organize yourself properly, you'll pay for it. In a big way. And so will the people around you." Peterson continues: "You can say, 'Well, I don't care about that.' But that's actually not true, you do care about it. Because if you're in pain, you will care about it. It's very rare that you can find someone in excruciating pain who would say, 'Well, it would be no better if I was out of this.' Pain brings the idea that it would be better if it didn't exist along with it. It's incontrovertible." On how to start: "Look around for something that bothers you and see if you can fix it. You can do this in a room. Sit in your bedroom and think: 'If I wanted to spend ten minutes making this room better, what would I have to do?' You have to ask yourself that, it's a genuine question. And things will pop out. There's a stack of papers bugging you. Some rubbish behind your computer monitor you haven't attended to for six months. Cables tangled up." He explains why this matters: "If you were coming to see me for psychotherapy, the easiest thing would be to get you to organize your room. You think, is that psychotherapy? It depends on how you conceive the limits of your being. Start where you can start. If something announces itself as in need of repair that you could repair, fix it. Fix a hundred things like that, your life will be a lot different." On fixing what you repeat every day: "People tend to think of their daily routines as trivial. You get up, brush your teeth, have breakfast. Those probably constitute 50% of your life. People think, they're mundane, I don't need to pay attention to them. No, that's exactly wrong. The things you do every day are the most important things you do. Hands down. Just do the arithmetic." On staying within your competence: "Sometimes you don't know how to fix something. Imagine you're walking down the street and there's a guy who's alcoholic and schizophrenic and has been homeless for ten years. That's a problem. It would be good if you could fix it, but you haven't got a clue. You walk around that and go find something you could fix. Just because something announces itself as in need of repair doesn't mean it's you, right then and there, who should repair it. You have to have some humility. You don't walk up to a helicopter that isn't working and just start tinkering away." Peterson shares the key insight: "As soon as you give your mind a genuine aim, it'll reconfigure the world in keeping with that aim. That's actually how you see to begin with. You've all seen the video where you watch basketballs being tossed back and forth, and while you're doing that, a gorilla walks into the middle of the video and you don't see it. If you thought about that experiment for five years, that would be about the right amount of time to spend thinking about it." He explains what it reveals: "What it shows you is that you see what you aim at. If you can get one thing through your head, that would be a good one. You see what you aim at. One inference you might draw from that is: be careful what you aim at. What you aim at determines the way the world manifests itself to you. So if the world is manifesting itself in a very negative way, one thing to ask is: are you aiming at the right thing?"

We’re bringing this back bc You have people SEETHING behind the scenes bc they SWORE they were in control of your relationships, your cash flow, your visibility, your forward movement and for a lot of you -!your self perception bc they thought they had damaged you enough to make you want to give up ALL HOPE on yourself and they’re PISSED bc not only did you survive all the attempts to destroy you- you came out on the other side bigger and better than ever. They thought they would be able to traumatize you and get into your head and pluck on certain wounds forever not realizing that by isolating you all they did was give you the time and space to MASTER yourself. You LOOK better, FEEL better, are doing BETTER THAN EVER && have blossomed right in front of the very ppl who thought they buried you. They CANT FATHOM this level of self love, self acceptance and self awareness bc while they were trying to put you down, you took the time to put the work in. You are unstoppable, irresistible and unfuckwithable and the folks who thought they ruled your life are realizing how insignificant they truly are. They were just a catalyst. It doesn’t matter what they want for you- if GOD says that it’s for you… you WILL have it and there is no one who can halt, stop, delay or swap your blessings any longer. You deserve EVERYTHING good that is about to happen to you so don’t question it. &&& for these folks in the back? LET THEM WATCH. I love you🌿 PS.. excuse my French it’s the passion 😭

“What did you think of Lando being booed at race because people and I've seen it online as well say he doesn't deserve the title because McLaren favored him over his teammate. Do you think that's total nonsense?” Jacques Villeneuve: “That's a little bit ridiculous. When there was some booing in some races, that was embarrassing. You should never boo a driver that's clean, doesn't do anything dirty, on track is respectful, and on top of it is super fast. What's wrong with people? That was embarrassing. And, had it been that Piastri was a second a lap faster than him and somehow Lando was winning because a lot of things were happening, his car breaking down every time, then you could start thinking, okay, that's really not cool. That's not fair. But that wasn't the case. And in the second half, Norris has been faster right at the beginning as well, last year as well. So there's this whole middle of the season where Piastri was driving a lot better than Norris and was getting the points. Norris had an engine blowing up, not Piastri. And so those fans, they don't look at that either. You have to look at the whole picture, at the whole season. And suddenly if your favorite is starting to go backwards, you just got to bite the bullet and accept it. Your favorite is just going backwards. That doesn't mean that the other one is treated better or the other one is undeserving just because the one you're a fan of is not winning right now. That’s really wrong. If you're a fan of the sport, then you have to be a fan of the sport and understand when your driver is maybe not cutting it at this point in time, even though he was before and he will in the future again. It's all a question of timing. But that's the price we have to pay now with social media and how big F1 has become. It's very passionate. The people are passionate and once, you know, fans come from fanatism, you stop thinking, when you get in that mindset and it happens to all of us. You want something so much that you get attached and you cannot - it's hard to start seeing reality. So you will try to mold the reality to your thought process and if your champion is not winning then it cannot be his fault. It has to be something from the outside. It has to be the team destroying his chance or not favoring and so on and so on and so on. But there's nothing concrete behind those comments. It's pure fandom and it'll always be like this. And ultimately it's not a bad thing. You know drivers at that - sportsman at that level have to grow a thick skin. If not, you don't deserve to be there. You just have to have a thick skin because they're all very happy to get the compliments. They love it when it's just positive, but it gets balanced out with negatives and you need to be able to take and accept the negatives as well. It goes both ways. You cannot have the good. You just have to be a thick skin and know that it's part and parcels of what's going on. And in one month, it will be forgotten and maybe everything will change and it be the other driver that suddenly will be criticized and so on. So, it's just that's just the way it is.”

Culture is genetic because behavior is genetic. This beaver never saw a dam in its life. No beavers or anything else ever taught it to build a dam. It wants to build a dam because it is a beaver. Many beavers together build a big dam. That is beaver culture. Humans are not different. Nothing is different. This is what life is. This is how life works. Your body is your mind. A caterpillar wants to build a chrysalis. A bee wants to build a hive. A lion wants to build a pride. You are not special. You are not above your nature. you are INSIDE of it. The thoughts that we think are genetic thoughts. The crimes we commit are genetic crimes. The art we create is genetic art. Just like this beaver, you can give the animal different sticks and it will build a different dam, but it will always build a dam. And you can give humans different "education," but the human will always use it to do what its genes tell it to do. This is the first big answer that you need. This is the biggest piece of the puzzle. This is how to understand people 90% of the way. You just... notice what they do, and get out of the way, and watch them do it. And if they need sticks, you give them sticks. And if you don't like what they do, you have to get away from them. You cannot train dam-building into them or out of them any more than you can with a beaver. A beaver wants to build a dam because it is a beaver. Whatever you see people build, that's what they wanted to build from the sticks they got in the river they were in. Stop pretending you can change it.

Most people think of time as something that happens to them. The hours pass. The days disappear. The weeks blur together. And eventually they find themselves asking, "Where did all the time go?" But what if that's the wrong question? What if time isn't something that simply passes? What if time is something you're continuously creating? Every moment is shaped by what you're doing, thinking, and feeling. Those moments accumulate into days. Days accumulate into years. Years accumulate into a life. That's why I believe you're not a passive observer of time. You are the creator of time. The moment you realize that, responsibility changes. You stop asking where your time went and start paying attention to how it's being created.

SHOOTING IN GAMES Being a good shooter in games is a good example of building confidence through preparation and experience. You need to work on your mechanics, you need to get your reps in. More so than that, you need to shoot in actual games so you get the experience. Players need to find 3x3, pick up games, or situations where they can get live game reps to develop their shot as well.

Steve Jobs on why everything around you was made by people no smarter than you: "When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much, have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money. But that's a very limited life." Steve believed most people live with a fundamental misconception. As he puts it: "Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. And that is—everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you." He continues: "And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use. And the minute that you understand that you can poke life and actually something will pop out the other side—that you can change it, you can mold it." On what matters most: "Maybe the most important thing is to shake off this erroneous notion that life is there and you're just going to live in it versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it. I think that's very important." His perspective on why you should change things: "However you learn that, once you learn it, you'll want to change life and make it better because it's kind of messed up in a lot of ways." The shift: "Once you learn that, you'll never be the same again."

Try not to bash into the walls too much, have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money. But that's a very limited life." Steve believed most people live with a fundamental misconception. As he puts it: "Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. And that is—everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you." He continues: "And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use. And the minute that you understand that you can poke life and actually something will pop out the other side—that you can change it, you can mold it." On what matters most: "Maybe the most important thing is to shake off this erroneous notion that life is there and you're just going to live in it versus embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it. I think that's very important." His perspective on why you should change things: "However you learn that, once you learn it, you'll want to change life and make it better because it's kind of messed up in a lot of ways." The shift: "Once you learn that, you'll never be the same again."

They are misrepresenting this tension. It's not "enbies didn't suffer enough" or "aren't trans enough", but it IS "you aren't qualified to speak on that". If your struggle is lesser, and you get up there, present your own experience, and say "this is what it's like, that's the whole picture", you're doing erasure. If you want to make things better for younger trans people, you do need to know when to sit down and check your ego.

🕰️ Make time your friend. Be the ancestor of your future happiness Poet David Whyte on 'How I Write' with David Perell: "All of us can remember a moment, a threshold moment in our existence where you picked up the phone or you went out the door or you put yourself out to have a conversation. You asked for a gift or funding for your work as you did, you know, and you were granted it. And if you hadn't have gone out the door, if you hadn't have picked up the phone, if you hadn't have asked, your life would be immeasurably impoverished today. So you could actually, well, you could actually go back to the person you were in that moment and thank yourself in a way as making a pilgrimage back to that moment." We imagine time is our enemy: "Time makes fools of us all" "I ran out of time" "There's not enough time in the day" Relating to time in this other way befriends it. Rather than cling to the moment, you jump into the flow of time and realize that now is the opportunity to be the ancestor of your future happiness. Now is the only time. What will you do today for your future happiness?

.Alex Marlow reacts to the clip of rising left-wing star Jennifer Welch calling evangelical Christians "a cancer" and "the worst people in our country": "Those of you who are on the right, who are conservatives, you likely have a God-based life, a Bible-based life. Because of that, your faith is the most important thing to you. Then after that, probably your family, and then maybe your career or politics kind of coming in at three or four. When you're on the left at this moment in time, the secular left in the United States of America, particularly embodied by these middle-aged white liberal women -- who are leading the party, they're guiding the whole party. That is their core demographic. That is the most dependable Democrat demographic right now. Then you're living a life where politics is above all else. And when that happens, the ends start justifying the means for you. If you're going to if you believe that you can get closer to political victory by completely demonizing, smearing, slandering people with whom you disagree, even people of faith. And we know in this country that Christians donate the most to charity. They donate their most the most time to volunteer work. They have better criminal records. I mean, like every single thing imaginable, demographically. You want to be, borrowing from my friend Dennis [Prager], if you see people coming down the street walking towards you and you know that they just came from a Bible study, are you feeling better or worse? You're feeling better. But they vote wrong, according to Jennifer Welch. And that's the problem. They think that you are other. You deserve cancellation, smearing, slandering, lying, maybe even death. Maybe even being hung, as Rick Wilson said from the clip I played yesterday, so long as you're a Christian. And why is that? because you vote for conservatives. That's what they think of you. They hate you. Don't forget that."

Rory McIlroy gives a masterclass on mindset, visualization, and dealing with pressure. "You never really know what's gonna pop into your mind at any given point. But when something undesirable pops into your mind, that's when you have to replace that with a better thought." Don't fight the negative thought. "Sometimes when I'm reading a putt, I see myself over the putt and hitting the putt, and the ball going in the hole." Here's what makes his approach unique - he visualizes in the third person. "I see myself making a swing or making a stroke." "If something does pop into your head of a flashback to a certain moment that you haven't done what you've wanted to, just replace it with that visualization. That's something that works well for me." Your mind will wander. Doubt will creep in. Bad memories will surface. The skill isn't avoiding those thoughts because they will appear. It's having the preparation and confidence in your ability to refocus and reset. See yourself succeed before you execute. (🎥Whoop Podcast )

we all dream of those big wins in life the 100x, the multi-million dollar trade, or even just 10x of what you started with in 7 days i’ve been fortunate enough to experience a few of those over the past few years, and the reality is when you do win big, it doesn’t feel like it at all it hits for a split second, and then your brain just normalizes it it's a part of how to get there in the first place, but makes it a lot easier to lose it if you don't have the right guardrails in place and in that exact moment, you being even keeled doesn’t mean the number in front of you isn’t life changing it is this is where you have to slow down a bit, breathe, settle your mind don’t just roll it into some bullshit take some off the table, step away for a few days if you have to, funny enough, blowing let's say 10k of it on a beautiful trip to tokyo will save you so much because once you actually process what just happened, your future self will thank you for it the truth is, even if you think you’re going for a certain number, the moment you hit it, you’ll want more and more, and more anyone who's been in the same position will tell you the exact same thing ironically the people that win are addicted to winning and if you ask the same people in a year after that big win, what they regret and where are they proud of themselves? they will tell you they regretted rolling it over and giving some/all back or they are proud for switching back on the switch all of this is real, but it’s also exactly how i imagined it would feel years ago before it ever happened manifest your life, the feeling not just the number everything happens twice, first in your mind, then in reality

This is probably the biggest issue that people have with their lives A negative mindset, fed by negative talking and thinking. You will find it very hard to positively improve your life if you continue to do this. They perpetuate negative circumstances by talking about them as if they are current. You may have experienced something in the past, but referring to it and giving it attention and energy is only strengthening it. Do away with the idea that you must be "logical" and "normal" with how you talk and live. Instead, put your mind and energy into the reality you wish to experience, and your life will begin to align around that.

Elon Musk on learning physics: What matters are not the formulas, but the thinking process that led to the discovery of those formulas. “I just recommend studying physics. What matters is not remembering a bunch of formulas. What matters is the thinking process that led to the discovery of those formulas. It's sort of critical thinking, first principles analysis, trying to understand what is true at a most fundamental level and then reasoning up from there and testing your conclusions against the most fundamental truths in any given arena. This is how you can figure out whether something is more likely to be true or not. It's good to think in terms of probabilities. If you receive information about a subject, that should change the probability of your conclusion, but not the certainty of your conclusion. Physics teaches you that you should not be 100% certain about any given prediction. Now, there's some things that are highly likely, but physics teaches you you got to assign a probability to something being true. And then as you learn more information, your original conclusion may be wrong, then you should then change your mind based on the new information.” Town Hall in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, October 24, 2024
