Day 317: On Thinking You’re Abl e

They are able because they think they are able.

—Virgil

 

318

It might be a trite reminder, but it’s nonetheless frequently true: people

often achieve impossible feats merely because they think they are able to do

so. If you don’t think that you’re able, you either won’t try at all, or if you

try, it will be a half-hearted attempt that is almost guaranteed to fail.

In rock climbing, I sometimes deliberately try routes or single moves

well  above  my  ability.  I’ve  found  that  sometimes  the  mere  belief  in  your

abilities  can  lead  you  to  climbing  a  difficult  route  that,  without  such  a

belief, would result in a spectacular failure.

In  business,  the  companies  that  grow  the  fastest  are  led  by

entrepreneurs who don’t set any limits for themselves. If they decide to sell

their services to a Fortune 500 company, they’ll start figuring out how to do

it instead of wasting time pondering whether they’re able to do so.

In  sports,  it’s  often  not  the  training  in  itself  that  makes  an  athlete

successful. It’s what they tell themselves during the competition that makes

the difference between winning or losing.

The next time you face a big, seemingly insurmountable challenge or

find  yourself  in  a  situation  with  a  low  chance  of  emerging  victoriously,

assume  that  you’re  able  to  overcome  it  —  and  then  act  as  if  it  were  true.

Life isn’t a fairy tale, so it won’t always work. However, if you assume that

you aren’t able — and that will manifest in your hesitant actions — you’ll

be always doing yourself a disservice.
