What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
You know what time it is. It's the weekend. This is when all the lazy podcasters take the days off. Not me. No, I'm here for you. And today we're going to have a show like, oh my goodness. Oh my goodness, it's going to be so good you'll barely be able to stand it. Let us prepare for all this goodness while you stream in. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take a chance on elevating your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice, a stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.
Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. And it happens now. Go. Oh, feel that oxytocin surging through your veins. I think it's time to do a reframe. What do you think? A reframe from my book? Reframe Your Brain, the best reviewed book I've ever written, and changes lives everywhere. All right, a reframe is meant to change your life with just a simple sentence that makes you think about something differently. Not all the reframes are for every person, but you might find one that's just for you, all right? Today's reframe is... The old way of looking at things is that confidence is something you're born with.
Did you ever look at somebody who seemed confident and you said to yourself, man, I sure wish I were that confident? Well, instead of thinking that confidence is something you're born with, which I do not observe to be necessarily true, except for a very few people, confidence is something you learn. Confidence is a learned skill. I would say that I'm very much in that category. So how many of you would define me as confident, at least in the way that I present myself in public? I present myself as confident, right? That's because in public I only do things I'm good at. Why would I do something I'm bad at in public? Confidence is really just about being good at something. That's it. Just become good at something and then watch how confident you are.
And then if you act less confident about something you're legitimately inexperienced at, that's not really a flaw. That's just you being accurate in your assessment of your abilities. So confidence is something you develop. It's not something you're born with. And that will help you get through those unconfident periods because you'll know there's nothing wrong with you. You're either good at something or you're not. And that would be the proper viewpoint. All right. I was looking at the Dilbert calendar the other day, the brand new Dilbert calendar for 2026, the best thing that ever happened in the world of calendars. And I was thinking to myself, God, this is so well done. How could it possibly be better?
I mean, there's really no way it could be better, right? Wait. Wait. I've got an idea. Usually the calendars have comics on one side. Work with me here. What if? What if? What if they had comics on both sides? I know. I know. I know. Settle down. Settle down. Look how cool that would be. So you would see your comic, right? And you'd be like, wow, that's a Dilbert comic. I'm so happy. Wait for it. Wait for it. Oh, my God, there's another comic. There are comics on both sides of these pages, people. Both sides. One is the Dilbert Reborn that's a little bit spicier. The other side is the classics, which you're used to. But, oh, my God. Well, now it would be fair to say there is no way for this calendar to be better. I mean, really.
The only thing I can even imagine is if it came with its own kind of easel or something. I mean, imagine if it came with its own little holder. I mean, it's almost too good to wait. Wait a minute. What is this? It comes with its own holder. Oh, my goodness. People, it comes with its own holder. You just put that in there. You put that in there.
