Don't be Shy, just Try........
Nike  said it well, "just do it!" " Every journey begins with a single step."   "In spite of your fear, do what you have to do."  “No one would ever  have crossed the ocean if he could have gotten off the ship during the  storms.” There are lots of ways to say it, but only action leads the  way.  There are many ways ...to  think about doing something meaningful, and oh so many ways to convince  yourself to do it later, when the timing is just right.  There's a  saying we use in the investment arena, "analysis paralysis".  We tend to  over analyze to the point of paralysis and fear.  Fear of failure, fear  of looking stupid, fear of not nailing something the first time because  it's new to us.  Sports figures Michael Jordon and Wayne Gretzky both  credit their successes to the relentless pursuit of shooting goals,  realizing that some will be missed.  Jordon missed shots because he was  willing to take them.  Are you willing to take the shots that will help  you succeed in your goals?

 
Yes! I'm willing to take the shot even if I miss. I will keep aiming for the goal because the fun is in the playing of the game, not in the winning or losing.
