Jump first, fear later…

“Faith and fear both demand you believe in something you cannot see.” - Bob Proctor

Too often we dream of and speak about what we “hope” to or “want” to do without ever taking action on our desire. 

We believe there’s a “right” time in the undetermined future state of life that is going to clearly present itself as the “right time”. Every second of each day we put aside the pursuit of what we desire to wait for the stars to align in our favor.  

The best time for you to work on what you want to do is - now. The sign you have been looking and waiting for all this time is right here - This Is YOUR sign! - Ready to start now? 

Probably not. I’m not sure of what to say specifically to get you to act on your goals or wishes. What I have come to learn is that when an opportunity presents itself, say yes, and work on learning what you need to do the moment after you’ve agreed.  

My new role in life is, well…new. I’ve not done it in the capacity in which I’m doing it now, but I’m learning how to do it better every day.

“If somebody offers you an amazing opportunity but you are not sure you can do it, say yes – then learn how to do it later.” Richard Branson 

What I initially feared was being “found out” as not good enough, and what I get reminded of in small ways EVERY DAY I show up is that I’ve got what I need to excel. Just by saying yes to what I “feared”, I’m learning how to do it and improving. 

No one needs or wants you to be perfect. The expectation of yourself is too much to consider. Just be you.  

Expected and unexpected change happens. Growing, learning, and embracing challenges as opportunities for improvement should be expected and sought after as well.  

So today, Jump at new opportunities, possibilities, and projects that will stretch you beyond your comfort zone.

Do those things that give you some concern and Excite you, and hold off on the fear until later…or brush it off all together.

You’ve Got This!
