If I don't start at all, the idea stays perfect, untouched and full of promise. If I start and it doesn’t work, the idea dies publicly. And I’m left with evidence that I tried and wasn’t enough. But after the conversation, it hit me that not starting is still a decision. Just a quiet one. The idea doesn’t stay alive it rots in my head. Most importantly I won't have any experience at all. Avoidance dressed up as “waiting for the right time” is still fear. Then I remembered something I learned from Shefi - START AFRAID. Not “start confident.” Not “start when you’re ready.” START AFRAID! Fear doesn’t disappear before action BUT it fades after movement. So yes, I’m scared. Still scared. But I’ll start anyway and I will pour my heart into it then I will see how far it goes because not starting feels safe, but it costs more in the long run.
