The Path of No Resistance: Why Overcoming is Simpler than You Think

“Believe in yourself” is a common slogan, but it’s empty rhetoric that takes people down a resistant path. You can’t try to believe. Those who do often wonder why confidence can’t be summoned at will.

When we have time to overthink, insecurity and ego creep in
