Not Good Enough

A new task dawns upon you. An offer actually. It comes by everyday, in different forms, in different ways, in means and streams you'd never thought of. It takes you by surprise, under your feet, as silent as the air. You notice this task at hand, the problem, the solution, the challenge as it stares at you right in the face.

It may be a phone call - offering you a new job. It may be a Crossfit workout you saw someone do exceptionally well in despite of it being sick difficult.

The first few thoughts that rub your mind, is the plague of self-doubt.
The actual question which you pose to yourself, which echoes loud from ear to ear,

"Can you actually do this ? "
"What if I fail ?"
"What if I disappoint ? "

I can attempt to iterate and advice you to NOT think about such things. Yet, by the power of your mind, you will definitely doubt me and my words, your own sense of positiveness, and your own self-belief.
Truly, it's the power of doubt, the power of fear, the power of non-focus.

We place ourselves in this space, where we  allow doubt, fear and 'distractions' take shape. Forming ideas and preconceptions about the end result before the task even beginning.

Counter measurably, the power of belief, courage, and focus are indeed powerful tools which any person can obtain, sharpen and utilize to enhance actual 'performance'. With the injection of faith which often precedes logic, we are able to go and perform beyond ourselves.

Here I am, touching the surface of things. Maybe, one day I should go into deeper thoughts about such things. As for now, we rest. Happy Friday.
