Fear of making a mistake and achieving NOTHING. Similar to what Icarus felt from my art teacher&#039;s crush <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Icarus#The_Legend\" style=\"outline: currentcolor none medium;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ancient stories about flying towards the sun<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#039;re aiming for something, I&#039;m guessing you&#039;d like to accomplish your goals. Well, and at the same time - to guarantee that you will not throw away another attempt in vain.<\/p>\n<p>...And you wait.<\/p>\n<p>wait<\/p>\n<p>wait<\/p>\n<p>wait<\/p>\n<p>(Read these words for at least another 15 minutes. To remember all your waiting, procrastination, and over-planning.)<\/p>\n<p>You may be waiting for the right moment.<\/p>\n<p>...But that's what kills your chances of achieving anything.<\/p>\n<h2>Don&#039;t: A surefire way to go wrong.<\/h2>\n<p>One of my close friends wants to travel the world and earn money from it. She doesn&#039;t want to study a boring major in a boring college, she doesn&#039;t want to hang out with boring people there, and she doesn&#039;t want to spend her days in her small, boring town.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, I salute her: <\/p>\n<p>She fulfills the first part of the wish quite successfully. She has been traveling to European countries and cities far away from Poland for a year now. And even today she talked dreamily about her upcoming trip to Paris.<\/p>\n<p>But the second part? Well, the one where you get together and try to earn a euro or two from your hobby?<\/p>\n<p>...He doesn't. Afraid. Avoid. Complaining and making excuses.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Who cares about my travels,&quot; she says. &quot;I haven&#039;t traveled much at all,&quot; he immediately adds. And it doesn&#039;t matter that she travels more than she could tell in half a day, or it doesn&#039;t matter that her travels are full of interesting and funny adventures, she still finds ways to make excuses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>She is afraid to make a mistake.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don&#039;t know what exactly - I don&#039;t read minds after all - but it seems as if he&#039;s afraid like so many other people are afraid of their dreams. She is one of the many stalled procrastinators. <a href=\"#footnote-1-2533\" id=\"note-1-2533\" class=\"footnote-link\">1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>And she has two choices:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Start and possibly achieve nothing\u2026<\/li>\n<li>\u2026Or not to start and guaranteed, one hundred percent guaranteed, to achieve nothing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Or else: it may succeed the first way, but it will certainly fail the second. Guaranteed. What will she choose? Or more importantly... What will you choose?<\/p>\n<p><span><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"A guy writes on the wall &quot;Start a new life tomorrow&quot;\" data-id=\"17799\" data-init-width=\"984\" data-init-height=\"1183\" title=\"tomorrow-to-start-a-new-life\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/debesyla.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rytoj-pradeti-nauja-gyvenima.png\" data-width=\"643\" data-height=\"774\" style=\"\" width=\"643\" height=\"774\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>So maybe today... A good opportunity?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-size: 1em !important;\">After all:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You can start a business - <a href=\"https:\/\/debesyla.lt\/en\/aurelius-katkevicius\/\" style=\"outline: currentcolor none medium;\">and learn something new<\/a>.

Just out of passion... Or you may never start, and your thoughts and feelings will remain unappreciated by the world. Maybe you are destined to be a famous writer?<\/li>\n<li>You may start photographing people and discover that photographing architecture is much more fun...

After all, no step on your way to your goal will be as important as the first. For that check you stepped towards warmer or colder.<\/p>\n<p>After all, you know that. Maybe you just pretend that everything will change from next Monday. Although then you will find even more excuses for procrastination.<\/p>\n<p>So start.
