Summary

This quote emphasizes the detrimental effects of dwelling on our shortcomings. By constantly fixating on our failures, we unintentionally strengthen and perpetuate them. When we continuously berate ourselves for our mistakes, we reinforce the belief that those failures define us. Instead, the quote suggests that we should divert our focus away from our failings and shift towards a more positive mindset. By doing so, we can break the cycle of self-sabotage and cultivate a healthier and more constructive approach to personal growth and improvement.

There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. Nothing is more keenly required than a defence of bores. When Byron divided humanity into the bores and bored, he omitted to notice that the higher qualities exist entirely in the bores, the lower qualities in the bored, among whom he counted himself.
