Yep. You can’t be 37 times better at something in a year. It’s dumb.

Not accurate. She wouldn’t see black. She’d see nothing.

Most real estate, especially commercial real estate, isn’t super “profitable.” It’s an investment that helps offset some other earnings.

You might not win the competition. You might not get the job. Acceptance of that needs to be part of it.

I don’t have to assume anything. It’s telling someone that because they survived something (something that others may not have survived) that they will always survive other things in the future (they won’t).
A better less derivative way of saying the same thing would be:
Remember when you thought you couldn’t do it? Well, you proved yourself wrong. You did it. Keep that in mind next time you have doubts.

I’m a super positive person but this is dumb. There are better ways to get across the same idea without a literal logical fallacy.

Yes, and it’s extrapolating that because you were always fine in the past, you will always be fine in the future. You won’t.

How? It’s assuming you’ll always make it in the future because you made it in the past despite not everyone making it in the past.

I agree with that part. It’s the “it’s going to be ok” that I don’t.

If only there was a word that meant: continue to live or exist, especially in spite of danger or hardship.

Sure but it’s a little dismissive. It might not be okay.

No it won’t. If you have a lifelong incurable disease that won’t change.

He didn’t quit because he was cheating in that particular game. He quit after a move. He quit because he didn’t want to be beat by someone who could be cheating.
