It’s Okay to Doubt Your Capabilities

Just be smart and use your doubt for your good

We all doubt ourselves. Why? Because we are humans. A thinking being. Where there is a mind, there will always be a doubt.

We doubt whether we have got the guts to be the best in our fields or not, we doubt whether we will be able to make it or not, we doubt and doubt and doubt.

It’s okay to be confused. It’s okay to give a second thought to things. To peel the onion, to scavenge the pearls.

Doubting is a sign of intelligence. It says that you are thinking that you are considering the option of stepping back for hitting the higher jump.

Doubt is nice. But do not let it prevent you from succeeding.

These Kinds of Doubtful Thoughts Are Normal

Thoughts like whether I can compete with the best player in my field, whether I have got something unique, or whether I will be able to go the distance or not are normal.

Every winner has faced such kinds of thoughts. And it’s quite reasonable to think like this. Thinking from your TV launch that you can climb the Mountain Everest should make you doubt it.

It should make you think that it’s hard or near impossible.
