Most people are petrified of trying something new. Many times it’s due to fear of failure. We ask ourselves, ‘What if this doesn’t work?,’ or ‘What if I fail?’
Or we think, it’s going to be too difficult.
We see this all the time with people trying to get in shape. They put off joining or they join and put off attending because they are scared of failing.
We see this all the time with our people on trying a nutrition approach. Here’s an example…. Ask people to cut out bread and gluten and they go crazy and argue about how they feel fine when they eat gluten. So they don’t do it.
I have a better question to ask yourself….
‘What if this works and I don’t do it?’ ‘What do I have to lose?’
Here’s the thing if it works and you don’t do it, you may have just missed the opportunity to ACTUALLY achieve your desired outcomes. The ONLY thing you have to lose is the time and effort you put into trying it. In the grand scheme of things who cares? I mean, at least you’ll know and then you can try something else.
Thomas Edison made 1,000 attempts at the light bulb before he finally was successful. When asked by a reporter how did it feel to fail 1,000 times, he replied, ‘I didn’t fail 1,000 times, the light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps.’
