An Idiot

 

So many advantages come from being willing to look like an idiot in the short term.

You stay silent in an important meeting, afraid to voice your critical thoughts and watch the project fail.

You don’t write the novel because people may not read it.

You don’t admit you were wrong and repeatedly make the same mistake.

You don’t go to the gym because it means you would have to admit to not knowing what to do.

You don’t ask the person out because you’re scared of rejection.

You don’t start the business because you might fail.

You don’t say sorry because you’re waiting for the other person to go first…

A few seconds of discomfort changes everything.”
~ Shane Parrish, Brain Food

 

So, how about it?

Are you ready to take a deep breath and go for it today?
