be unreasonably confident in yourself. bet on yourself even when you have nothing to show for it. believe that you’ll figure it out, even when you have no idea how. because the moment you start doubting yourself, you start looking for reasons to give up. you don’t need everyone to believe in you. you don’t need proof that you’re going to make it. you just need to keep showing up, keep learning, and keep moving until the life you once imagined becomes your reality.
