I’m sitting outside on the front porch, outside in the open air, enjoying the quiet, it hit me:
“Unfollow your instincts.”
I read that somewhere recently, and I’ve been chewing on it ever since.
See, our instincts are designed to play it safe.
And that’s good when it comes to not jumping out of an airplane without a parachute.
But those same instincts can keep us from trying new adventures… or saying yes to an opportunity… or taking that leap of faith that could change everything.
That’s when instincts stop protecting us, and start confining us.
Like living life as “the bubble boy.”
Too safe. Too protected. Missing out on the good stuff.
Truth is, even when it doesn’t pan out, I’ve learned more from the things that didn’t work out than from the ones that did. And those missteps? They’ve turned into some of my very best stories.
But you only get those stories, and those breakthroughs, if you’re willing to skin your knees a little. To crash and burn once in a while.
Otherwise, you don’t move forward.
And you might just miss out on your best stories.
For us in this business, it’s the same.
If we only follow our instincts, we’ll stick to the “safe” path, avoiding calls, avoiding new systems, avoiding putting ourselves out there.
The problem with that is, growth lives outside the bubble.
And the good news? You don’t have to jump alone.
