“It’s not about ‘what can I accomplish?’ but ‘what do I want to accomplish?’ Paradigm shift.”
— Brene Brown
Simplified Meaning:
The quote means that instead of thinking about what you are capable of doing, you should focus on what you truly desire to achieve. Imagine you love painting but don't think you're very good at it. If you focus only on your current skill, you might give up. But if you think about how much you love painting and want to get better, you'll put in the effort to improve. Take Michael Jordan, for example. Instead of just accepting his natural talent, he thought about becoming the best basketball player. His passion drove him to practice harder than anyone else. By aiming for what truly mattered to him, he achieved greatness. So in your life, think about your dreams and passions. Don’t limit yourself by what you think is possible now. Ask yourself what you really want, and let that guide your efforts. This change in thinking can help you reach goals you might have once thought out of reach.
