Delusional Self Belief Actually Works | Van Gogh

Vincent van Gogh had ten years of evidence that he should quit, and he ignored all of it. This is what his "delusion" actually was: a system. Around nine hundred paintings in a decade. One confirmed sale while he was alive, and even that one has a story almost nobody tells. No market, no audience, no permission. What kept him working wasn't madness and it wasn't blind faith. It was a way of measuring his life that nobody could take from him, and he left the whole method behind in more than six hundred private letters to one person. In this video: why he started at twenty-seven with proof he wasn't good at anything, the measurement he used instead of results, the one witness who saw every canvas, who actually bought The Red Vineyard in Brussels in 1890, and the three moves he leaves anyone who's building something the world hasn't paid for yet. 🢂 Get the FREE StoicIndex 1-Day Reset Protocol guide: https://stoicindex.com/pages/reset 🢂 Explore StoicIndex: https://stoicindex.com/ 🢂 Follow StoicIndex on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stoicindex 🢂 The StoicIndex Reset Planner (Notion dashboard to turn the reset into a daily system): https://stoicindex.com/products/reset-planner 🢂 The 180-Day Transform System: https://stoicindex.com/products/180-day-transform-system 🢂 Support this channel, buy me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/stoicindex If this video helped you, subscribe and turn on notifications.
