Episode 52 - The Myth Of Certainty And Safety

Fuse Chamber

July 22, 2018

We all know about the paralysis caused by waiting for the right moment in the right conditions. So why do we continue to do it, and how can we stop?

It’s normal, from an evolutionary/survival perspective, to want safety and certainty
The need for certainty and safety, however, prevents us taking risks and moving forward boldly - two essential behaviours for artists and entrepreneurs
We associate lack of safety - in all its forms - with danger, and that fear paralyzes us; making it extremely difficult to break this pattern.
Breaking the patter requires a mindset shift - realize how expensive these desires and fears are. Then take small but meaningful steps to provide yourself with proof that nothing bad will happen if you move forward without absolute certainty and safety.
