Courage?

"Hesitation is the currency of cowards!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

Successful people move forward with decisiveness - failures never move forward because they waste too much time waiting to make the decisions that matter.

I wasn't quite happy with the original image I created for today's post.

In fact, I was a bit indecisive on using it?—?so I used MidJourney instead to create another one. I like the results!

Here are 20 reasons why "hesitation is the currency of cowards":

1. Hesitation allows fear to take hold and prevents courage from taking hold
2. It reflects a lack of confidence and self-belief.
3. Hesitating means missing the opportunities that require seizing the moment.
4. Hesitation leads to paralysis and inaction, preventing progress.
5. Hesitation is a form of procrastination, delaying what needs to be done.
6. It shows an unwillingness to take calculated risks.
7. Cowards hesitate because they lack the courage to face challenges head-on.
8. Hesitation is cumulative, allowing doubts and insecurities to fester and grow
9. Hesitation is a reflection of the lack of clarity, resulting in a fear of the unknown.
10. Cowards hesitate because they are more concerned with potential negative outcomes than potential rewards.
11. Hesitation allows for a lack of commitment and conviction, resulting in half-efforts and half-measures
12. It can be a sign of indecisiveness and an inability to make tough choices.
13. Cowards hesitate because they prioritize comfort over growth.
14. Hesitation is destructive, leading to missed deadlines, broken promises, and lost credibility.
15. It's indicative of a lack of preparation or insufficient knowledge.
16. Cowards hesitate because they are overly focused on potential obstacles rather than solutions.
17. Hesitation can be habit forming; it becomes an ingrained character flaw that holds people back.
18. Cowards hesitate because they lack the resilience to bounce back from setbacks.
19. Hesitation stems from a fear of taking responsibility and being held accountable.
20. Cowards hesitate because they lack the passion and drive to pursue their goals with urgency.

Don't hesitate.

Don't be a coward.

Do things NOW.

Futurist Jim Carroll believes indecision to be the cardinal sin of failed leadership.
