Too many options

IMG_8159

Often when we are fearing something, like starting a new project, changing jobs, taking a different path, we allow ourselves to over-analyse.

It is a protection mechanism to avoid ‘danger’ of doing something new or different.

We end up giving ourselves too many options, too many ‘what ifs’.

Simplify.

The few the options the less you will find excuses not to do something, often no option is the biggest catalyst for action.

After all whatever you are changing is unlikely to lead to a life or death situation.

What we fear is the best option and it is usually instinctively the one we fear the most.

Stay young

Age is not a number that increases at every birthday.

It is a mindset.

Many people get to a stage in life, some even in their twenties and decide that is it, step on the treadmill and follow the path to retirement and death.

Always look with idealistic eyes, always be open to possibilities, always believe that you can, always think that whatever you are doing there is another chance, if it fails just try again.

Stay as the child that society tries desperately to turn into an adult.

Being an adult is a simple tool of control to numb us into being employed to build other people’s dreams and fortunes.

Stay young forever.
