We worry about things that might not work out.
We weigh up the upside, and we weigh up the downside.
That’s reality.
But the problem most of us face is that we put too much weight on the downside, and that causes us not to act.
You’ll regret the things you didn’t do much more than the things you did do that didn’t work out.
Maybe it’s time to dive in?
Our lives are filled with paths that we have seduced ourselves into believing are impossible for us to take.
A while ago I encouraged my daughter Zara not to listen to a friend who wanted her to do something that she didn’t feel good about.
When we focus on a past that we don’t like, we are living in a state where we are hoping an imaginary future will heal a non-existent past.
Recently I was in a situation that wasn’t what I wanted, but there wasn’t anything I could do to change it.
If you fill up every area of your life with little regard for the quality of what you’re filling it with, there’s not much room left.
