Have you ever truly wanted to do something in life—a change, a new project, a move? But you’ve not yet gotten around to it because you need to do something else before you can take that leap.

First, you need:

  • To get another certification
  • To read more about the topic
  • To learn the language
  • To learn a new skill
  • To get feedback from 1000 people

I didn’t realise I was doing this until I read about it.

It became so obvious that I was the one placing barriers on myself.

I was telling myself, without even realising it, that I needed to complete x before I could get to y.

It made me feel better that it wasn’t just me who played tricks on themselves without consciously realising it.

But it was also a wake-up call.

It was a moment to figure out what I need to get to where I want to be vs. what I’m placing on my path as a way to put off the leap.
