How to Start When You’re Scared: Stop Waiting and Take Action

Why You’re Stuck (And Why You Keep Lying to Yourself) Let’s cut the crap. You’re not “too busy, waiting for the right time.” You’re afraid. Afraid of failing, what people will say. Afraid of how hard it might actually be. You’re stuck in that familiar loop: “I’ll start tomorrow.” “Next week will be better.” “New year, new me!” But weeks turn into months. Months turn into years. And deep down, you know it. The real story? You’re scared you’ll start… and then quit. Or worse—you’re scared you’ll start and still suck at it.

Lost? Here’s How to Find Direction

Do You Feel Lost? Lost in life, business, spirituality, mentally, or physically? I don’t think anyone ever truly figures everything out. I know I haven’t. Every time I solve one thing, I realize how much more there is to learn. And that feeling—the constant questioning—can make you feel stuck. But over the years, I’ve found ways to break out of that cycle. Here’s what helped me: 1. Gratitude Over Comparison A few years ago, I was sitting at a café with a friend, venting about life. I felt stuck—like I wasn’t doing enough, achieving enough. He laughed and said: 👉 “I fell to the bottom… and heard a knock from underneath.”Since then, it has become one of my favorite quotes. It's easy to judge yourself when you compare yourself to others and their achievements. Then he listed all the things I’d accomplished—things I took for granted. He reminded me that there are always people wishing for what I...
