“Fortune doesn’t have the long reach we suppose, she can only lay siege to those who hold her tight. So, let’s step back from her as much as possible.”

—SENECA, MORAL LETTERS, 82.5b–6

In our lives we are mostly bounded by our beliefs, what we perceive as true or false. This is dangerous, as if we hold certain beliefs that purposefully diminish our true ability, it traps you, and takes you as captive for as long as if you live.

We must examine what our beliefs are, but not to replace it with delusion. Instead, find out what brings us results, as well as what inevitably are a fictitious and destructive notion that we carry in our day to day lives.

Some from our generation might summarise this as “delusion is the solution”, maybe it holds some truth.
