Scared to Death!
by Ed Hirsch
Does your heart ever beat so fast and hard that you feel you
may die? When this happens, (and it happens to me) it
motivates and forces decisions (and action).
It may be fear, or it might just be some raw excitement.
In either case, it is not a bad thing.
Moving toward your goals, dreams and highest aspirations
requires a constant confrontation with the truth! The truth
is YOUR deepest beliefs and personal intentions. Whatever
it is you think is your purpose in life, my encouragement is
to "do it."
My first "mentor" wrote "DO IT" and that was all ... when I
went up after the seminar to get his signature in the
Freedom Planner I purchased from his T.V. Infomercial.
Walking the walk of a person driven by some unexplainable
vision, will necessitate action which causes you to do
things that the "average bear" does not normally do.
These actions we endeavor, need not be taken on haphazardly.
In fact, the discipline of planning and totally thinking
through the intention and the respective carrying out of it,
must be done responsibly. Many "driven" people have failed
miserably in business and life by simply leaving out the leg
work to research the life plan fully.
Make the decision, take the action and carry it out.
Get SCARED ... it is a great indication that you are making
progress in the changes necessary to achieve the intended
result.
"No Pain, No Gain", "No Guts, No Glory", "You'll always miss
100% of the shots you don't take", "No Drilling, No Oil" (I
made the last one up ;-)
I am practically scared to death each morning I arise. The
"things to be done" each day require continual prayer to
stay consistent and persistent. It is not a negative state
... it is damn exciting! As each day moves forward,
the fear does NOT decrease.
Fight the good fight and look the fear directly in the eye
to continually spook it out of the mind.
Being scared to death is a sure sign that you are ready to
make the next step toward your chosen success. My
encouragement to you is that if this is the case
in your life ... "DO IT!!!"
