You may have the best car of the best model with power greater than that of a thousand horses but if you don稚 turn on the starter, nothing happens !
Yes a lot of human beings are like that, we may be well built physically or we may have a lot of degrees to show how much knowledge that we have accumulated. We may attend seminar after seminar but so long as we don稚 turn on the starter, all the talents, ideas etc will always sleep within us never to see the light of day.
The trick, a wise man said is to START. Without that first step, Mao Tze Tung would never begin his long march. If NIKE do not JUST DO IT, it will never be the No. 1 sport wear brand today.
What is the point of knowing something without trying to apply it ? By just starting, the battle is already half won. The saddest thing is that there is a large group of people in the world today who wants to be 100% sure before they make their first move !
Remember, even the best laid plan can still fail ! You will never know until you start to do it. You may learn all the methods & style of swimming but until and unless you step into water, you will never know whether you can swim or not.
There痴 another group, who out of fear of what others might think or say do not start. To these people I only have this to say to them:- 展hose life are you living ? You are here to live your own life ! Even experts can be wrong. And what are expert anyway ? How痴 this for a defination : 鄭n expert is someone who knows tomorrow why today痴 prediction fail.・Of course it痴 OK to listen but the final decision belongs to you. So long as it does not do harm to yourself & others and it is beneficial to all, what痴 stopping you ?
One thing I can assure you. Once you start something, a new world will just begin to open to you. You shall experience new things, meet new people, hear new comments or criticisms etc. One thing shall lead to another. Who knows, it may lead to your dream come true ! You can start in a small scale, but just do it !
Remember, you will never lose in any project if you do not lose the lesson. And from that lesson, fortune shall be made. Sometimes you may lose in your first attempt but don稚 let that loss prevent you from making the second attempt. Personally I have seen many money opportunities being missed just because the person did not follow through with the second attempt ! And that would be a real loss !
Yes, opportunity do multiply as you seize it ! And these words were spoken by Sun Tze thousands of years ago.
May you see it through.
Your fellow traveler in time.
