Your actions are not small enough

Love or fear?

What is your driver for decisions? There are only two factors which influence your decisions. Love and fear. Sometimes it is a combination. But it does not get any more complicated than this.

You want to quit your job: Is it because you fear you are not good enough to become good at the job and therefore be successful or is it because you found the love for a big passion that is pulling you towards a different purpose in life?

Choking under pressure

The best athletes are not only the best, because they are the most skilled or the most conditioned. They are also the ones that do not choke under pressure. Because they are not busy focusing on their fear (what could potentially go wrong), they can focus on the most important part of performing their skill and are therefore more successful doing it.

Avoiding makes your world small and helps the fear grow

Whenever we avoid situations that are scaring us, we are making our world a bit smaller. With every action not taken, we are less likely to take the step in the future.

The way to grow is to take actions that have an uncertain outcome. Small, but uncertain actions lead us to big changes.
