Believe in your infinite potential. Your only limitations are those you set upon yourself.
~Roy T. Bennett~
Just remember one thing. Majority of the people around you in the future are going to know you by your future-self, not the person you are today.
Now why did I decide to start this article saying that? Well, because I believe self-confidence is what's holding us back!
It's that limitation people set for themselves that they 'have to' be a certain person, according to their standards. Having that thought that you cannot make too much of a change in your life because the people around you won't like it.
The truth is, the 'changing' part only lasts so long. The people around you only notice it for so long, until it becomes second-nature. So my question to you is, what is stopping you? Why do you keep putting back on your training-wheels?
The saying:
Everyone starts somewhere.
I don't like this saying anymore. Not because it's not true. It's incredibly accurate and undoubtedly the truth, but I think it is so loosely used, that people become immune to it.
Listen, forget all the cliche' crap. Just think about it logically here. Absolutely no one person is better than you are. We are all human. The only difference between you and your so called 'role model', is experience. Again, without being too cliche', you need to realize that you can do absolutely anything that somebody else has done before. Yes, it's understandable that you might doubt that fact, but that's just because the other person knows how much easier that one thing is to achieve. They know this through experience.
It's no accident why a millionaire can become a millionaire faster the second time. It's just from experience. The second time round in anything is usually far easier. Not because the things around you have changed, but because you have. Aside from the experiences you have learnt, you also gained confidence in yourself.
Look, the bottom line is this: Do not ever be intimidated by another person's progress.
Every single person has human traits. We all feel insecure at times. We all have doubt. We all have some extent of fear. I can think of so many examples of people I know who just aren't trying. Not because they are lazy, but because they don't believe they can do something about their situation.
You need to know you can do something! There has never been a better time than right now. There never will be.. Because the time does not matter. What matters is you. Don't be afraid to achieve. I urge you to go for GOLD!
