➡️For a while, this used to be my #1 excuse. I always, like most people I suppose, knew what I had to do but I had trouble taking action.
The root of that problem was the fact that I always wanted to know EVERYTHING about a topic, before I got my feet wet with it. And when I say everything, I literally mean it. Now don’t get me wrong, wanting to know basic details and have a general understanding about what you’re getting yourself into it’s OK. Wether that is starting a new business or subscribing to a gym membership.
Unfortunately, I didn’t just stick to knowing the basics and creating a plan. I wanted to know every single detail, every single problem that might occur and the solution to it too, which, obviously is impossible to know unless you start going at it.
So that caused me to delay a lot. Miss on countless opportunities and, yes, a lot of anxiety.
I was lucky enough to realise this at an early age (17) so I’ve build a shield around it. Now, as soon as I get the idea or the information, I do some research, create a plan and within days I’m already implementing. While I’m moving, since I’m not stopping no matter what, every failure is a lesson that optimises the process for me.
Next time you’re facing a similar decision, don’t let it go. Take action on it immediately. If you feel that this is the right choice, don’t wait until you know everything or circumstances are perfect. Pull the trigger and execute. Best time to start working out was 5 years ago, if not, second best time is TODAY.
Pull the trigger, commit and you’ll figure the rest out later! 🙏
