Life is filled with choices where the outcomes of those choices are uncertain. It would be great to always know which choice to make – but that is not possible. So, knowing that you will never really know if you have made the right choice until sometime in the future can make you hesitant about making any choice at all.
This hesitancy can be one of the biggest obstacles in having success in your life. Of course, it’s a good idea to make informed and educated decisions in life. But the fact of the matter is that there will always be some uncertainty in the outcome of your choices. At some point you just have to do it. Stop analyzing it, stop going over all the details, and just trust yourself enough to make the right decision and do it.
There is a quote from Theodore Roosevelt that explains this best. He said, ‘Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell 'em, 'Certainly I can!' Then get busy and find out how to do it.’
Some of the biggest opportunities in life will be lost if you hesitate because you are not sure if you can do the job. Take Theodore Roosevelt’s advice and just jump in and learn in the process. Experience is just about the best teacher anyway.
So what are you waiting around in life to do? Have you been contemplating doing something great in your life but you can never bring yourself to just start? Remember this, great things are never easy and they are never sure. It takes someone who will dare to believe that it can be done and then get out there and just do it.
