You may have met someone that has the ability to do something, but they don't have the capacity. Just becuase you can afford something, does not mean that you deserve it. Alternatively, you might deserve something that you don't yet have the capacity to attain. The ability to get it shows up after you have the capacity to hang onto it.

You can have all of the things that show external success and still be falling apart on the inside. You should be winning in your life, but only if you're committed to the hidden processes that no one sees.

Failure won't kill you, but the failure to change will. If you don't make a conscious decision of who you're going to become, someone else will make that decision for you. If you're only chasing trophies, you're chasing the byproduct of a version of yourself that you're not in control of.
