Failure is part of life. With failures, we become more stronger and to be honest, the secret to success is to fail often. So don't be afraid of failures and take action when an opportunity presents itself to you.
It is the fear of failure that prevents us from taking big steps in our lives. We have to build "bravery" by simply shifting our mindset to accept that "failure" is part of our life and in fact failure is "good".
We have to remind ourselves that there is no step-by-step manual for life. Therefore, we have to JUMP into the "sea of action" and figure it out as we go. Let's break down the word JUMP for better understanding:
J - "Just-Do-It" despite all deficiencies. Forget about too much thinking and talking. It is time to do it. There will never be a perfect time to take action.
U - Undo fear of Failure. From early ages, we have been trained to be scared of taking action. We are scared of people's opinion. We are scared of failure and what people will think about us. We have to let go of our fear of failure once and for all by shifting our mindset to accept that failing is a "good" thing and actually it gets us closer to our goal.
M - Make a promise to do it. Your chances of success is higher, if you dare to take action and make a promise to yourself that you are going to do it. Because of this promise, you may not give up easily. A promise, to yourself, pushes you to "jump".
P - Practice what you preach: We have seen people in our lives that they can easily give advice to others but when it comes to themselves, they don't practice what they preach. For example, they try to make others millionaire but they are struggling to make ends meet. It is easier said than done. Once you start practicing, you might soon realize that there are many things that you have not noticed.
This is not to say that having a theory, behind your action, is a bad thing. It becomes annoying when it elevates to "analysis paralysis". We have to appreciate that awareness is not action. We lead by example and therefore, we become a leader by leading.
