But in the meantime, you’ll wait it out in the safety of your comfort zone.
My friend, you’ll spend forever waiting because there is simply no such thing as 100% certainty.
For starters, we live on a rock that is hurling 70,000 mph through space, circling a fiery ball of elements prone to surface explosions. That shit has a life of its own.
And in our personal lives, massive shifts and changes can happen in an instant.
You can get hit by a car.
Mugged by a crazy person.
Diagnosed with a serious sickness.
Lose your job to a merger.
Lose your house to a disaster. Lose a loved one to cancer (been there).
You sacrifice irreplaceable moments settling for a safe sense of ‘certainty’ that can never actually be fully achieved.
The only guarantee is this…
Waiting to take a leap of faith on your own behalf will do nothing except solidify the beliefs, stories, and circumstances that have kept you stuck.
Fear wants you to wait for ‘certainty’ because it knows that’s the only way to keep you permanently trapped in your comfort zone.
So I invite you to evolve. Stand up, and boldly take action on the change you’ve been called to create.
Replace your preference for certainty with a bold trust in yourself and begin to act accordingly, and every aspect of your life will transform.
I know it’s scary. I know it’s inconvenient. But your potential and your purpose are too d**n important to keep trapped any longer.
Stand up and live FEARLESSLY.
