I think that’s why the smarter and the most successful people I know start out as losers. If you view yourself as a loser; as someone who was cast out by society and has no role in normal society, then you will do your own thing and you’re much more likely to find a winning path. It helps to start out by saying, “I’m never going to be popular. I’m never going to be accepted. I’m already loser. I’m not going to get what all the other kids have. I’ve just go to be happy being me.”
