You may want to take a look at Neil Fiores book, "The NOW habit". The key message is, "I choose to start on one small imperfect step knowing I have plenty of time for play". Visualizing the desired outcome (your why) helps. Sometimes things go wrong, and it may help to plan for this as well, i.e. what negative outcomes are possible, what can I do to improve my chances, and what alternatives do I have?
Most things aren't life/death issues. Take a deep breath and just do it. You risk a setback (and can still learn something), but you gain a chance to succeed. johntom...@gmail.com schrieb am Donnerstag, 16.
