Have you ever watched someone achieve incredible success and thought, “That could never be me”? You might dream of turning your monthly income into your hourly income, but deep down, a little voice whispers, “That’s just not possible for me.” If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. I used to be part of that mindset too, always believing that others could succeed, but not me.
This mentality holds so many people back. They see others thriving in their careers or businesses and believe that success is only meant for a select few. Instead of fully committing, they dabble in different courses, programs, and strategies, never truly giving their all because, deep down, they’re convinced they won’t achieve the same results.
The truth is, if you don’t believe in your own potential, you’ll unconsciously create barriers to success. Think about it: how many times have you held back from a big opportunity or hesitated just before taking action, only to later wonder what could have been?
Here’s the thing—success isn’t reserved for a chosen few. It’s available to anyone willing to challenge their limiting beliefs. The real battle isn’t external; it’s the story you’re telling yourself.
Ask yourself this: What’s the belief behind “It’s not for me”?
Often, that belief stems from past failures, comparisons to others, or fear of not being good enough. For me, it was the fear that I wasn’t naturally gifted in copywriting and that, because English wasn’t my first language, I could never write emails as well as the top marketers out there. I used to think that only certain people had that talent, and I wasn’t one of them.
But here’s what changed for me: when I followed Igor Kheifets’s “One Email a Day” course, I realized copywriting wasn’t about talent—it was about following a process. It wasn’t some mystical gift; it was a skill that could be developed over time. This shift in perspective completely transformed how I approached my work.
Once I embraced the idea that I could learn and improve, I stopped limiting myself. I continue to follow the step-by-step method I was taught in the course and stay persistent with it and believe one day I also can turn my monthly income into my hourly income. If other people can, I can do it too.
So, if you find yourself stuck in the “It’s not for me” mindset, it’s time to challenge that belief. Reframe your thinking: if others can achieve success, why not you? The only thing standing between you and your goals is the story you’re telling yourself.
Remember, success doesn’t require perfection—it requires belief and action. The moment you start believing that you can achieve what you desire, you’ll stop holding yourself back and start moving forward with confidence.
