You tell yourself stories constantly. About who you are, what you can do, what is possible. These stories feel like facts, but they are interpretations.

Some stories serve you. They build confidence, encourage action, and frame setbacks as temporary. Other stories sabotage you. They confirm limitations, justify inaction, and make problems permanent.

You cannot always control events, but you can control the story you tell about them. The same situation can be a disaster or an opportunity depending on the narrative.

What story are you telling yourself that might not be true?
