For many of us, as highly trained professionals, the idea of making a mistake is anathema.
To be avoided at all costs.
And true, professional errors can be costly.
But as entrepreneurs, the fear of making mistakes can be even more expensive.
For entrepreneurs, failures, mistakes, and errors are the way forward.
Playing it safe will keep you small.
Risk the error.
Fail forward fast.
Dan was the state marshal at a court house I worked in frequently.
I slid my trial bag onto the x-way conveyor belt, and walked through the metal detector.
“Hey Dan, how are you?” I asked.
Dan shook his head and, with his shoulders drooped, looked down at the floor before responding.
“One day closer to the weekend,” he answered.
It was Monday.
Steve Jobs once said, “For the past 33 years, I’ve looked into the mirror each day and asked myself this question: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.”
We have the opportunity, perhaps even the responsibility, to co-create these magnificent things that are our lives… to craft them in a way that brings us joy.
Is it time to change something?
Do you suffer from Smart Person Syndrome (SPS)?
If you do and it persists too long, you should definitely consult your physician.
Because it can lead to regret.
And regret sucks.
Goethe wrote:
“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back — concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.
Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.”
What Goethe says.
Start.
You need to Marie Kondo your brain.
“Silence is an empty space. Space is the home of the awakened mind,” the Buddha said.
Silence and space renews us.
They allow us to heal… physiologically and spiritually.
Through silence and space, we’re able to re-connect with ourselves; we’re able reclaim our vison, our focus and our creativity.
Silence and space are not options; they’re essential to your wellness and wellbeing.
The spiritual masters have always known it.
Now there’s science to support that.
It’s easy to imagine some distant destination.
But… what if… what if you absolutely had to get there now?
Well, you’d go online and buy a ticket.
When you buy an airplane ticket, it means you’re going to fly… you’re going somewhere… you’re committed.
Done deal.
The commitment drives us forward.
Unfortunately, most of us don’t confront our lives in the same way. We don’t commit. We don’t invest. We don’t buy the ticket.
Instead, we put things off; we defer, we delay, and we drift along. We tell ourselves that there’s still time, that we’ll get to it… someday.
And then time goes by.
If we’re going to live our dreams, if we’re going to live out what we value most, we must be about it. There is no time to waste.
This means today.
Not “someday;” not “when the kids get out of college;” not “when we retire.”
Today.
The only time we have is now.
Buy the ticket to your life. It’s the greatest show on earth.
Commit. Take action. Make your dreams inevitable.
