A collection of rules by Morgan Housel. A few great picks:

• Unsustainable things can last longer than you anticipate

How To Change Your Self-Limiting Beliefs
Sometimes we hold ourselves back not because of a lack of ability, but (mostly untrue) beliefs that we aren't capable enough. Here are some tips on how you can change your beliefs:

1. Accept that you view the world through a filter. Our reality is shaped by what we believe. Get comfy with this idea.
2. Try a different filter. Imagine what it would be like if you had more optimistic beliefs.
3. Reject double standards. Would you say the same negative things you tell yourself to another person? If the answer is no, then why are you saying this to yourself?
