“You can’t be that kid standing at the top of the waterslide, overthinking it. You have to go down the chute.”
- Tina Fey

It will seem scary at first. But nobody started driving a car without turning on the engine, neither had anybody learned how to swim reading a book about swimming. You just have to trust and take the first step into a space of unknown. We learn by ACTION not a THOUGHT. Yes, it might be inevitable you’ll suck at it first but so what?! Better done than perfect!
.
We all started somewhere. We took the leap of faith when as babies we finally threw ourselves into the open space without holding onto the safety net. We failed so many times before we finally started walking on our own. Trust. Be curious. Because great things are waiting for you on the other side of fear. Be uncomfortable, be scared, but DO IT ANYWAYS. It will pay off!
