A speaker reflects on writing his first book alone and realizing he was blocking himself, not lacking support. He argues people often sabotage their own progress without knowing it. The fix: recognize where you're getting in your own way and stop.
When I wrote my first book, I didn't have anyone either. Why do you think I wrote it? Because I realized I didn't have anybody supporting me. I didn't have a mirror. Now, which was so fascinating because if you ask the people around me, they say, oh, well, we always, we always believed in him. We always thought he could do it. Yeah, but I didn't get it. So I was the one blocking it. So has it ever occurred to you that you could be the one blocking this, that you might have that support right now in your life? And you could be blocking it without your knowledge, but now it's your responsibility to do something about it.
