Analysis by paralysis.<\/p>\n
It is a very real thing.<\/p>\n
Many of us have been conditioned to believe that if we haven\u2019t dotted all of our \u201cI\u201ds and crossed all of our \u201cT\u201ds, we\u2019re doomed to fail. Although having a plan is valuable, it doesn\u2019t determine success or failure.<\/p>\n
Think about how many brilliant people with incredible ideas, or talents, who had solid plans and failed. There would be too many to count.<\/p>\n
Now, think about all the brilliant people with incredible ideas, or talents, who had solid plans and never tried\u2026<\/p>\n
The first group let go of their fear and set forth on the path to their goals, although they didn’t reach them. Yet, they dusted off and kept it moving.<\/p>\n
The second group waited until everything was perfect before starting on\u2026oh\u2026wait.<\/p>\n
Never mind.<\/p>\n
One of the people in our most recent voiceover workout group<\/a> inspired this post. She talked about her voiceover progress and uttered the phrase that started this post.<\/p>\n I stopped her immediately and shared my experience with paralysis by analysis:<\/p>\n My first business launched in 2017. I did a lot of researching about what it takes to start a business, and even took an excellent online course<\/a> to learn the essentials. However, when it was time to start, I was scared. What if it fails?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n After that, I set my pride back in the corner and got out of my own way. If waited for the \u201cright time\u201d to start on the pathway to my goals, then I would have waited forever.<\/p>\n Here’s a not-so-secret secret for you: the \u201cright time\u201d doesn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n Sure, conditions may not be ideal, but don\u2019t wait until they are. They never will be.<\/p>\n Have I made mistakes along the way? Many. <\/p>\n I will continue to make mistakes\u2026but I dust off and keep it moving, because it\u2019s the only way to grow.<\/p>\n So\u2026the next time you have an idea that makes you nervous, yet excited, don\u2019t freeze because you\u2019re waiting for the right time.<\/p>\n The right time is now, and your dreams are waiting.<\/p>\n Watch the video version!<\/strong>
