Short YouTube video fragment (uploaded by Nick Kugelman, Jan 10, 2026) in which two speakers argue that success requires a 'delusional' level of belief and commitment: you must believe in something without proof, be comfortable being misunderstood, and persist until success validates that belief ("it's only delusional until it works").
If there's one piece of advice I can give to anybody watching this video is stay delusional.
It's not going to make sense to anybody. And that's the point. You have no proof. The whole point is for you to believe in something you've never done before with a level of commitment and certainty that is unreasonable, delusional until you do it. And once you do.
It, everybody's going to be like, oh, yeah, oh, he saw that. He had the potential. Understand. Being delusional, being misunderstood.
Being somebody that.
Other people don't understand, that is actually the point. It's only delusional until it works.
