Inside Job

173: Who Am I To Do That Thing


Listen Later

How often do you stop yourself from going after something you want?

How often is your reason for stopping yourself related to who you are or what you’re capable of?

So often in life, we find ourselves wanting to do something like writing a book, applying for a new opportunity at work, or starting our own business, but we question who we are to even think of going after those things.

After all, aren’t there already enough books? Isn’t someone else more qualified for that position at work? Didn’t those entrepreneurs make it work because they had more of a financial cushion when starting their business than you do?

These are the stories we tell ourselves to avoid risks and keep ourselves safe in our comfort zone. But, what opportunities or experiences are you missing out on because you never take those risks?

Listen in as we explore these questions on the podcast this week.
