How to do BIG things effortlessly
Sometimes, I always try to challenge myself to do big things or big projects. It used to be hard to accomplish because I haven’t tried it before. It makes my blood flow faster in my body. Then, it turns to produce cold sweat on my skin.
When I tried something new and big, I used to feel like a chicken. I feel like a baby who starts to walk on the floor. Sometimes I make some mistakes. It seems like the baby who falls to the floor.
In this situation, I have two choices: stop it or continue it to fail well. Because I focus on the result, I choose to try again and fail well. I mean, whenever I make mistakes, I always get something to learn. I can evaluate my mistakes before I try again. It helps me to be more confident later.
I call my try as a life experiment. I want to test my assumption or hypothesis about something. I want to know whether I can do it or not. Then, I believe that anything is possible to do as long as we can give more attention to it, as long as we learn from it.
