It's 3:30 am.
Like any good insomniac, instead of sleeping I'm laying here....thinking....and typing my thoughts on my iPhone.
What needs to be done. What decisions need to be made. How to pull all this stuff off.
Sometimes, when we see all that needs to get done, we get paralyzed ... or at least I do. Maybe you can relate.
But...I've pulled a lot of seemingly impossible things off in the past, and the more I think about it, one theme runs through all of them.
I do my best when I don't over analyze things, and go with what feels right now, at this very moment.
In other words I just do what seems like the next most logical thing, however crazy it might seem.
Just throw your self in and go...with conviction.
Start moving, start right now.
For example, don't ask if "learning to program is smart or stupid". If it seems right to you start learning immediately, if you start to analyze too much you will never even begin.
Don't listen too much to others and what they think is right or wrong. It's irrelevant. Your not them.
If you read biographies of revolutionaries and innovative people you discover many common traits.
1 - They all March to the beat of their own drum. They don't follow the crowd.
2 - They have tried an enormous # of things, and failed at many.
3 - They have been heavily criticized over the years but did what they thought anyway.
I haven't asked, but I have to believe that nearly all of them lived doing what felt right at the moment.
They made decisions and ran with them.
They realized that right or wrong is only learned from doing. Until you try some course of action you can't determine rightness or wrongness.
And ... they accepted that no single decision in life is final.
MOST IMPORTANTLY -- Nearly anything we do can be undone, yes there may be a cost in time or money, but failing to make decisions and act at all is far costlier over your lifetime.
