Sometimes the “busy work” you do of planning or organizing your goals may seem like progress. Or the constant dreaming and analyzing of your ideas may seem justified and necessary. But no matter how much envisioning, planning, organizing or analyzing you do, nothing will change until you take action! It sounds simple and you know it to be true, so what holds you back from doing it?
Like so many other people, the reason you don’t take action has to do with the fear of failure. Fear is a very powerful emotion and it’s one that can stop you in your tracks. It might be because the fear you have of failing is more powerful than the satisfaction of success. Or you may even be afraid of success itself, because of the responsibilities or pressure that may come with it.

The fear of change and uncertainty can also be a factor. Sometimes you mask those fears in never ending planning and overthinking, causing you to never take the first step. The thing for you to realize is that failure is a part of success. There cannot be success in anything without failure. So, as you can imagine, failure will be a part of the learning process on the road to financial success too.
The only way to overcome that fear is for you to accept that as part of the process, so that you can get started. Once you start, you can then learn from mistakes, make corrections and keep moving forward. The success from the actions you take will allow you to overcome your fear. That’s how real action is taken for progress to be made. But, you have to start for anything to happen.
