How to Develop Delusional Self-Belief?
how DO you develop delusional self-belief?
A small warning, it is impossible to be The Best. Someone is always better, or luckier, or slightly more blessed. Or someone will dedicate their life to anti-strating you. And when expectations of yourself don’t meet reality, that hurts your confidence.
So how do you develop delusional self-belief that won’t hurt your confidence?
Through repeated “mastery events,” or as the youth say: fucking around and finding out.
Fucking around as in pushing the boundaries of what is possible for you and finding out what is actually possible. Valorant is a great place for fucking around because nothing is true, anything is permitted, push the boundaries of what is possible and find new limits.
Everytime you do that, you say "medal clip that" and you turn the moment into proof that you are capable of being a god gamer. And when you’re bottom fragging, you can remind yourself of what you are very capable of, evaluate the situation and adapt.
The belief comes from proof of ability which requires practice and training.
But what are you training for? That list of goals Ludwig had you write, like why do you want those numbers? For example, I’m grinding valorant because I want to play on stage at least once. Maybe hit a clip or two. But I’m ass. And that journey from ass to greatnass towards a pretty common goal theoretically makes me a relatable and compelling character, which is what your audience is looking for. So what are you training for?
