I’ve went to many ups and downs in my own entrepreneurial journey. Most fun I have is when I’m at my delusional state where I believe that everything is possible. And somehow things do become possible in mysterious ways

The real question is, in that state, are we delusional? Or have we remembered who we were before the world convinced us what we can and cannot do? Maybe that's the truest version of ourselves. And the real delusion is believing we can't.

I see my kids already know they are limitless. I will never convince them otherwise 😆. I think what we call “delusion” is just our natural state

I’ve followed your writing and podcast for over 2 years now, thank you for sharing this. Reading this made me feel like I’ve also lost some of the delusional self-belief I had a few years ago, especially since the first startup I worked for failed after I joined pre seed and invested 4 years growing it. Your article definitely reminded me of the fire, energy and belief I had in me.
