I know life is full of challenges and things don’t always work out the way that you have planned but that doesn’t mean that you should stop taking risks. The primary reason why people stop themselves from living a fulfilling life is because of fear. They tell themselves “I’m too old, I’m too young, I have too many responsibilities now, my time has passed, I don’t know what I’m doing, what if this doesn’t work, I don’t want to look stupid in front of my peers…” and so on. By believing these things fear keeps them stuck living in should of, could of, would of land feeling purposeless and lost.
Taking risk is where your adventure begins! This is where you come alive! So what if you don’t know what you’re doing in the beginning. How do you think Oprah Winfrey got started? Do you think she had all of the resources she needed, a supportive community, and unlimited cash flow? Not even close! She had a dollar and a dream! Do you hear me!? Lol, she started with a vision of what she wanted to accomplish in a set time period, worked hard at developing herself, creating opportunities and took things one step at a time, one project at a time, and one hire at a time. There is no magic formula to this you have to start where you are with what you have.
Don’t limit yourself! Let go of fear-based thinking, become resourceful, and take risks based on where you want to be 2-5 years from now. Nelson Mandela said it best “it always seems impossible until it’s done.”
