I am scared every time I get an offer and this is the perfectionist in me who is being really hard on myself.
I am still unsure of what I want in life, as in how I plan to spend the rest of my remaining years.
I am not technologically and business savvy enough to run my own business as a solopreneur.
I don't have the money / capital to live my dream life.
I suck in time management as I am a typical scanner.
Now if I am being honest to myself, are they valid reasons for not pursuing my dreams???
One thing I must emphasise from experience is this: NEVER settle for less than your dream.
Our progress in life is never linear. I have a choice to prime whenever I decide to i.e. mid-40s. I mustn't settle for less based upon the fear of a worse second half. We are constantly learning something new, evolve intellectually and emotionally, all to prepare us to experience another prime.
There will be obstacles small and large on the way but if you are working towards your dream, you have the energy, the passion, the creativity and the power to deal with the hiccups.
How about asking yourself these questions and ponder upon them if you are still unsure of your dreams?
- What do you really want? What will make you really happy? Why is this so important to you? How do you feel when you hear about or see someone living your dream? How much it really hurts not to follow your dream? What do you really gain if that milestone is achieved?
- Visualise your dream life. Write in your journal. Collect more info to increase familiarity and awareness.
- Brainstorm ideas and thoughts about making your dreams a reality. Reach out to those who are living your dream for info and support.
- Take actions.
