This is a short monologue from a YouTube video in which the speaker argues that people often rationalize lack of success by blaming external factors, but the harsher truth is frequently that they simply aren't skilled or "good enough." The speaker frames this as a difficult but necessary realization for personal growth and mentions it applies to themselves and their clients.
And I think sometimes we just get in our heads about things and we think that. I don't know. I just think that we. We. I think that we just get in our own way because we want to believe that it's not like we can't be successful or we want to find a reason to make ourselves feel better about not being successful. Because when you really look at it, and this is something that I've had to do in my own life recently, too, is like, when you really look at it, the reason we're not successful is really just because we're not good enough. And that's a really hard pill to swallow for me. It's a hard pill to swallow for our clients. It's a hard pill for anybody to swallow. Is like, sometimes we're just not good enough. Like, all of us just need to be better, right? Or like, we're just not good enough at a specific skill at the end of the day. And I think we. We would rather make ourselves feel better by saying that, you know, there's some external thing.
