think later



So simple, right?! Just like Nike commercial says "Just Do It". Theoretically we understand that concept. Why do we stop ourselves from doing something?! Most of the time the reason is out of fear.

False
Evidences
Appearing
Real


Just do it. Just decide that you are going to do it. Make a habit of it. When the idea comes up, decide that you are going to do it. You know how you enjoy spontaneous thing a lot more than planned thing?! I think that's why. When you plan something and it doesn't go as you planned, you get frustrated. When you do something spontaneous and just follow your instinct, you don't have an idea of how things should go, so you enjoy it more. I'm not saying that we should always act recklessly. That's completely different thing. You cannot or shouldn't say something to people just because you thought about it. You can't punch people in the face just because you felt like it. Then the world will be a chaos.

I talk to my sister more often than when we used to live as kids. Now that we both have our separate life, we've learned to respect and appreciate each other more. I love her to death. Anyways, I always tell her that I want to go visit her and my family. It's not easy to just go there. Not only it's expensive to go there, it'll be a whole day to just get there. So, I have to REALLY make a decision to go there in advance. And I told her today something that I never told her before. "I'm going to visit you guys. If I keep saying that I wanna go and just talking about that wishful thought, I'm never gonna go there. I have to decide that I'm gonna go and think about how later." It surprised myself, to be honest.

"You have to to decide that you're going to do, and think about how later".

You can even figure out how when you are in the process. Yes, finance can be our biggest concern of all time. But once you decide that you're gonna do, it's gonna be so much easier. Have an accountability partner who can actually push you through. Make sure that you're gonna do it. Not someone who gonna let you get away with things. Say it out loud, or write it down on paper and post it up somewhere you can see it. We can figure out how later. The most important thing is to do. If you fail, great! You learn how NOT to do that. If you fail again, great, you found another way not to do it. As long as you do it, you always learn something. If you don't try, you'll never know anything and keep wondering the same thing "what could have and should have". The action will give you courage, knowledge and strength to move forward. And we all got what it take to take the first step.

Love,
