Life can be scary sometimes.
I must admit that in some situations, I may hesitate. Indeed, I sometimes wonder if this is the right time to take action. The more I try to find an answer to this question, the more I tend to get stuck. This blockage finally prevents me from moving forward and I remain on hold.
Waiting does not bring anything in life.
No one has been able to achieve their goals by waiting and not acting. I believe that this type of questioning is due to a certain form of fear. Fear of failure or worse, fear of succeeding in achieving your most ambitious goals. Indeed, what would you have left if you were to achieve your wildest dreams?
The Ideal Place Does Not Exist
In some cases, you will find yourself excusing yourself that the place is not the ideal place to start and take action. Know that the ideal place does not exist. Or rather, it exists. And this place is anywhere!
Indeed, wherever you are, you must take action.
It doesn’t matter where you start your journey to success. Do you think you will still remember it in a few years? The answer is clearly no.
So you only have one thing to do, it’s to take action with this phrase by Tony Robbins in mind:
“The path to success is to take massive, determined action.”
Fear Must Be A Driving Force
As I just explained, you may well be afraid to take action. Indeed, you could fail and you are afraid in advance of the eyes of others. You must understand that the way others look at you is irrelevant. Everyone must live their lives as they simply wish.
Failure is part of success because it is at the beginning of any great success.
People who have been very successful in this world have all failed at one time or another. Where they have been able to make a difference is the way they have reacted after their failures. Indeed, they have been able to take full advantage of their failures by learning the necessary lessons and then redoubling their efforts.
Failure brings you closer to success.
Finally, you should know that fear is a good thing. It is a primary mechanism that has been embedded in us for thousands of years for one reason only: to force us to take action.
Fear is therefore a driving force to take action.
Doubt Must Be Your Ally
It is normal to doubt in life. Everyone doubts at some point. The people who tell you otherwise are liars. Here again, the difference will be in how you use this doubt within you. Thus, some people will be discouraged by their doubts.
You must not let the doubt discourage you.
The right way to approach doubt is to use it as an ally. Doubt helps you to ask yourself additional questions that can alert you and help you make better choices before the key moment.
This is the key moment when you will take action based on your doubts.
Once you take action, you will quickly realize that your doubts will be erased because you will no longer have time to think about it.
Insecurity Helps You Stay Focused On Your Actions
In life, there is nothing worse than a sense of security. Indeed, it is at these moments that humans tend to relax and make mistakes. If you doubt it, look for athletes who have already been Olympic champions once in their lives, for example.
How many Olympic champions have managed to win the gold medal again?
Very little! Why? Simply because once at the top, many champions fall into a sense of security. In fact, they make less effort and are no longer focused on their actions.
To stay focused on your actions, there is nothing better than the feeling of insecurity.
This feeling of insecurity will wake up your brain and you will be more attentive to all the little details that will make your actions a success. When you feel insecure, take action and you will see that you will be better for it.
You Only Need Yourself To Get Started
When it comes to taking action and getting started, you may hesitate thinking that you are alone in the face of a huge challenge while others are acting together. Thus, you have the (false) impression that you will never be able to do it alone.
You only need yourself and your will to get started.
Your willpower is your most precious ally in life. This is the willpower that will make all the difference and place you above 90 percent of the people. Willpower to constantly improve and willpower to always try are rare assets that make you different.
You are different and can therefore succeed by taking action without the need for outside help.
Once you have embarked on the adventure, it will then be time to see if you really need help or if all this is just an excuse not to get started.
You Must Take Action Now
The perfect time to take action does not exist in life. You can look for it so much and more, it will never happen. The reason is simple: the perfect time to take action is now!
You need to take action now and make sure you move forward every day. You will certainly make mistakes. This is a good thing because by learning from your mistakes, you can get closer to success. Consider each mistake or failure as one more step in your quest for success.
Thus, the fear of failure will push you instead of blocking you in your actions. By adopting this habit, great things will happen to you in life if you are constant and persistent.
