Paulo Coelho

Simplified Meaning:

To achieve success, honesty with yourself is crucial. When you lie to yourself, you're not facing the truth about your strengths and weaknesses. This can stop you from improving or solving problems. Imagine a student who tells themselves they're good at a subject but keeps failing tests. By not recognizing their difficulties, they won't seek help and won't get better. Instead, if they admit their struggles, they can work on them and improve. Being truthful with yourself helps you make better decisions and truly grow in your abilities and character.
