    The document discusses the importance of believing in yourself and your goals. It notes that the author's mentor discovered that all very successful people he interviewed seemed to believe the world was conspiring to deliver success to them. It recommends the book "You Squared" by Price Pritchett, which suggests suspending disbelief and acting as if your success is guaranteed. The author shares how taking this approach helped them become a successful author, despite initial doubts, by believing they could write books and learn new skills like computer programming needed to succeed, even without prior experience in those areas.
