April and I were having a conversation the other night about people that never "pull the trigger".
She's a rising executive in the tech world here in California and is the YANG to my YIN. A perfect circle if you will. But you need to know our personalities.
She's of the ilk..."Ready, Aim, Aim, ready, check the wind, aim, dope the scope, ready, dot the i's, aim, cross the t, aim, aim...
Where as I am all about FIRE, Aim, READY!!!
We were discussing some great athletes in my gym and under my guidance those people that are stifled by the fear of losing, so they have a hard time succeeding.
Granted, I'd be more accurate if I aimed a bit more, but pulling the trigger or "Taking risks" has always been the type of person I've been.
Not haphazardly, mind you. I take calculated risks and never plan on failure. Plus, my attitude has always been, if I fail, that's temporary until I get it right.
I also jest that "I've never lost any game that I've played." No, no, no...I've simply run out of time.
I digress, some people need to pull the trigger and stop sabotaging themselves with the thought of failure.
Give something a shot, and so WHAT, if it doesn't work the first time. Do it again! Make the adjustments and finish.
Because NOT doing something because you are fearful of the failure, or how you will look, doesn't really weigh in too much.
Pull the TRIGGER! Send the round down range, and wait for the pink mist.
