Why Not Do It?

Would like to write a book? Then, why not do it?

Would like to start a business? Then, why not do it?

What holds us back in starting?

Perfection is the most common reason why we don’t start.

Growing up, especially in school, we were taught that we should avoid making mistakes or failing. But in reality, life is a series of mistakes. Thomas Edison, the inventor of light bulb failed 10,000 times. Imagine  how our nights will be very dark if he did not started inventing light bulb as he wanted to perfected it the first time? 

But if we dig deeper, it boils down to the idea that we should look good and always be right. We were being held back in starting as we get afraid that we might fail (against the idea of being right) and we are worrying that people may judge us (against the idea of  looking good). 

How to go about perfection: remember that failing is just part of the process. Think of this, green light on the streets does not turn on at the same time. Focus on the problem that is in front of you and look for ways on how to solve it. Avoid learning everything first, just go do it and just correct things a long the way.
