“One of the common ways we
block success is by refusing to take action on a project or opportunity
until we can see the entire pathway from start to finish. We are afraid
to start because the outcome is uncertain. While we plan, think,
research, and analyze, the opportunity slips away.
Highly successful people take a
different approach. They just lean into it—they open themselves to
opportunities and become willing to do what it takes to pursue
opportunities further, without any expectations. They say “yes” to
opportunities, take the first step, and then find out along the way if
they want to keep going.”
