A healthy psychosis

There’s a healthy psychosis far beyond a fixed mindset and just short of delusions of grandeur. Reality is not static. Perception is reality. Your perception is not static. The way you saw the world as a child was different from the way you see it now. Even the way you saw the world yesterday is different.

There is an unhealthy psychosis, a disconnection from reality that makes daily life impossible. The healthy disconnection comes from looking at everything and saying, “That’s not how things have to be.” Then you see the way you want things to be. The healthy psychosis comes from seeing how truly thin is the veil between these two—what you want and what is.
