If someone were to tell you this, would you believe them or would you expect that they are suffering from delusional grandiosity?
According to what limited research has been done on grandiose delusions, the odds are at least 800,000,000:1 that you're listening to an insane person.
Those odds make the big presumption that there is one person who has it all thought out correctly, if there isn't then the odds get even worse.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandiose_delusions
>Grandiose delusions (GD), also known as delusions of grandeur or expansive delusions, are a subtype of delusion that occur in patients with a wide range of psychiatric diseases, including two-thirds of patients in a manic state of bipolar disorder, half of those with schizophrenia, patients with the grandiose subtype of delusional disorder, frequently in narcissistic personality disorder, and a substantial portion of those with substance abuse disorders.
>GDs are characterized by fantastical beliefs that one is famous, omnipotent, wealthy, super intelligent, or otherwise very powerful.
>The delusions are generally fantastic and typically have a religious, science fictional, or supernatural theme.
>There is a relative lack of research into GD, in contrast to persecutory delusions and auditory hallucinations. >Around 10% of healthy people experience grandiose thoughts at some point in their lives but do not meet full criteria for a diagnosis of GD.
