Success, of course, begets success. And vice versa. That's kind of what this article was all about. That you can break through that barrier if you can understand what is shaping your thinking about how the world works. Do you think it's possible you're conflating scepticism and pessimism with an increased understanding of how the world works? That is, with more experience? I know I was very optimistic of life what I was in my 20s. Then, in my 30s, that optimism faded. Now, in my 40s, I've come to realize that I'm optimistic again, and I was just naive in my 20s. Perhaps this cycle will repeat or take a new form as I grow older. I'm kind of excited to see what happens.
