“The only thing that’s keeping you from getting what you want is the story you keep telling yourself”

Tony Robbins

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, we tell ourselves stories that limit what we think we can do. For example, if you keep thinking, "I'm not smart enough to get a good job," you might not even try to apply for one. This negative story becomes a barrier, stopping you from reaching your goals. It’s like a student who thinks they can't pass a test, so they don’t study or put in effort, making it almost certain they will fail. But if they change their story to "I can do well if I prepare and work hard," they are more likely to succeed. Changing the story you tell yourself can open up new possibilities and help you achieve what you want in life. It’s important to believe in yourself and give yourself a chance to succeed.
