For a long time, I believed I could do anything. It was a belief that served me well. It gave me permission to dream. To try. To say yes before knowing how.
I have long approached the world with the quiet confidence that, with enough effort, energy, or intention, anything was possible.
And then, I tried to do everything.
Especially in business, I fell into that trap—believing that since we could do anything, then we must do everything.
Why not chase every idea, pursue every opportunity, take on every client, build every product? I told myself it was ambition. I told myself it was vision. But over time, I realized it was noise.
When everything matters, it becomes hard to tell what really does.
