QUOTE

"Our doubts are traitors that make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt."

William Shakespeare, 16th Century English playwright

INSIGHT

You know that feeling when you attempt something new, or something that you find a little scary?

You have natural doubts; but how often do you listen to them more than you think about the possible benefits, or the joy of the experience?

Although fear is compelling, having doubts doesn't mean that there is any truth in them.

Doubts don't have a monopoly on truth - you can argue with them, prove them wrong, or even just ignore them altogether!

QUESTION

What are your doubts convincing you of?
How much more would you be capable of if you listened to them less?
