How To Get Yourself To Consistently Take Action
Action is the basic building block of success, the foundation. But we don't usually take consistent action, and often we even have trouble getting started in the first place. So it's crucial that we get leverage on ourselves to take the actions we need to to build our dreams. To get leverage on ourselves, one of the dynamics that we need to pay attention to as we're taking a new action is the process of acclimation.
Do You Ever Feel Like An Imposter?
Achieving our dreams and goals often means we have to put ourselves out there more and be in the public eye. For a lot of us, this is way outside of our comfort zone, especially if you're an introvert. We're afraid of getting judged or criticised by people. This usually manifests as imposter syndrome. We think “Who do you think you are to do this? You're not talented enough, attractive enough, smart enough, educated enough, successful enough, etc.”
Are You Failing On The Fundamentals?
Most people fail at the fundamentals when it comes to learning new skills. If you're not making progress, you want to ask yourself if you're failing at the fundamentals in that area. It's not because you don't know some trade secret or the latest hack or some nugget of wisdom. The thing that's going to set you up for success initially isn't in the secret sauce; it's in the fundamentals.
If It Makes You Uncomfortable, You Should Probably Do It
Abraham Maslow said, “In any given moment we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.” And the only place growth happens is at the edge of your comfort zone and slightly beyond it. Discomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful life. Facing that discomfort requires courage. Courage is not the absence of fear; it's acting in the presence of it.
