Confidence isn’t about removing all doubt. Confidence is knowing you’ll be all right if things go wrong. - Mark Manson

I see every rejection simply as some form of incompatibility. Whether she thinks I’m a total creep, or she’s crazy about me but we live on different continents, or she’s in a horrible mood when I ask her out, or she thinks I’m cute but has different values and interests than me — whatever the reason, if a woman ever rejects me, it’s because she’s not compatible with me. It may be a permanent incompatibility. It may be a temporary incompatibility. But the point is that if she liked me enough, she’d be willing to work at making it happen with me. And if she doesn’t, then that just means it’s wrong person — or right person, wrong time. And that’s fine.

People spend their lives trying to avoid doing something they regret, only to regret all the things they didn’t do.

We believe we don't have enough time when really we don't have enough focus.
