Being on the fence is one of the most familiar places to be for many people.
I notice my tendency as well to set up a cosy home for myself up there and watch all my reasonings and justifications on both sides of that fence while I drink a warm cup of tea on top of it.
While I am on the fence, my ability to impact life is substantially diminished.
I am analysing my reasons, justifications, rationalisations, excuses and opinions. I am not going for anything.
And there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s just very useful to see that our ability to impact life comes through choice and action, rather than analysing what actions to take.
Whether it is about picking a career from hundreds of options available or starting/not starting a business or even taking out the trash or not, there are two modes that we can operate from:
Deciding or Choosing.
With one I am on the fence, with another, I jumped down.
Again, nothing right or wrong, better or worse here. But a very important thing to be aware of if your commitment is to impact your life and play full out.
Much love,
Felipe
