I think this is a very good article. I totally agree. People are afraid of
failing and therefore never try something they wish they were able to do.
They are unhappy because they are unable to make a move.
Not surprisingly, this is not a very original idea. I've read Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and he's talking about expanding your "circle of influence" (somewhere called the comfort zone). Like: there's something you don't
know how to do (but want to do because it's important for you or you just want to
be able to do it), but you are afraid you'll fail when you try to do it. Oh yes,
of course you will. But the second time you'll be much more confident (comfortable)
because you already know a bit "what it is about". After a while, you can master it and change your life to be closer to what you want it to be.
Suprisingly, not many people get it.
I recently came from two study abroads and feel much braver than before. There is
always a chance one can do what he/she wants; even when it's very ambitious. Yes,
you can fail, but if you don't try.. you'll die in mediocrity. Thanks, I'll better fail a million times.
i like the article
