Whether it’s a career change, starting a business, buying a house, moving to a new city, going back to school, or any number of life changes, you’ve had it in your mind for a while to do something BIG. You know what you want and how to get there but you haven’t made the leap. To gain in bigger and more fulfilling ways, you must risk. There is no other way around it. Recognizing that you have a tendency to shy away from risk is the first step to changing.
To overcome your fear of risk, you must understand what is driving your fears and then brainstorm ways to overcome them. Make a change, try something new, keep trying, and enlist your friends and family for support along the way. Now is the time! Scooch your butt off the edge. No matter the end result, you will be all the better for it.
