Discussing the statistics

The statistics never boost anybody’s hopes, but your parent is obsessed with them. She knows all of the statistics about the likelihood that you’ll ever actually make money at this, that that book will ever get published, that your business will ever actually take off, and things like that. She knows all the numbers. And she recites them to you. That’s what she did to herself—that’s why she gave up on her dreams. The numbers are not encouraging. Don’t look at them.
