IT TAKES GUTS TO GET OUT OF THE RUTS

Most people want more out of life than they settle for. So why do they settle for less? They settle for less because they are held back by their fears.

Fear of failure prevents most people from pursuing their real dreams. They may deny that they live in fear but in reality they don't go for what they want because at a deep level they think "what if I try and fail?" "What would others think?" "How could I live with myself if I lost everything?"

Here is something that most people do not understand about fear. Fear is just a smokescreen. Everyday that you hesitate to take action, your FEAR BECOMES STRONGER.

I dare you to act despite your fears. Change your perception of failure. If you see failure as a 'necessary ingredient to success' instead of an 'impediment or setback', you will increase your chances of going after your dreams.

Simply taking initiative will put you in the top 5% of the people out there who are too scared to live big. 

Initiative means making a decision, taking responsibility, and taking action when you want something. It means moving swiftly and decisively. It means being willing to take risk.

I am an average person who has been able to accomplish many amazing things simply because I was willing to dive headfirst out of my comfort zone. 

You have it in you to take initiative. You really do. You most definitely do.

As I write this, I am reminded by one of my favourite quotes by Hellen Keller - "life is either a daring adventure or nothing."

To your success.
