You don't think you're going to change.
You've already kind of painted your future self into a box that your future self is the exact person you are today.
And so that leads you, I mean, what the research shows is that leads to kind of having a fragile or a brittle approach to life where you're too afraid to fail because you're trying to prove yourself.
Whereas if I know that my future self a week from now
is gonna be different.
They're gonna be way more knowledgeable.
They're gonna be less ignorant.
Then that gives me right now a lot of grace.
Like you said, like I don't have to have all the answers right now.
Like one of my favorite kind of models for this, it comes from Brene Brown's book, The Atlas of the Heart, where she said, you're either trying to be right or you're trying to get it right.
And if you're trying to be right, that's the definition of a fixed mindset.
Like you're trying to prove your current self because your future self isn't gonna be any different.
Like you've already, you're kind of stuck.
Whereas if you're just trying to get it right, I know I'm gonna make a lot of mistakes.
I know I don't have all the answers now.
And I know my future self is gonna have better perspectives.
And once I get there, they're gonna be blown away at how different they are from who I am today.
But also they're always gonna be trying to figure it out.
Like you're always trying to get it right.
And you're always growing and changing.
