How many things do you tell yourself over and over again that aren't quite true, but now there just a part of who you are?

The illusory truth effect is the theory that the more you hear something, the more true it becomes.  The fire service is full of examples of this.  Pushing fire, oxygen is good for everyone, 12 leads are too difficult for the street, 'they don't want a person like me promoted'.

Lies, ALL LIES!

A lot of times we do this to protect our ego and limit what we're capable of, but the worst part is that it is by choice.  Quit lying to yourself, but do it slowly, and see how many people are actually happy and supportive of the version of you that you want to be instead of the one you've convinced yourself you are.
