We underestimate our capabilities just as much and just as dangerously as we overestimate other abilities.
In the book "The Daily Stoic," Ryan Holiday emphasizes the importance of accurately assessing our own abilities. He points out that often, we tend to underestimate what we can achieve, which can be just as perilous as overestimating others. This self-doubt can prevent us from reaching our true potential and hinder our growth.
Moreover, the author highlights the balance we need to maintain in evaluating ourselves and those around us. By critically examining our strengths and weaknesses, we can cultivate a more realistic and productive perspective that fosters personal development and resilience. Understanding our own capabilities allows us to navigate life's challenges with confidence.
