Hi, Steemians!
A lot of people believe that being stable in life is a great quality that only a few can accomplish. That basically describes a person who has economic independence and is able to take care of himself and his expenses.
But from an entrepreneur’s perspective, that stability could also be poison for the hope of any future success and accomplishment.
Let me make my case against your comfort zone!
Financial stability is a great milestone for any individual at some point in their life. But it can also be a dangerous state of being, as it gives you a comfort zone that you will not feel obliged to leave!
The truth is that the most amazing things happen when you feel that you are in a dangerous position or when you are on the clock and the time is running out.
It is as if our mind races back and forth between endless possibilities and brings itself to function better with much more efficiency and productivity.
Now, even though it is great to aspire for financial stability, you need to understand that it never lasts.
The reason that I call financial stability a ‘safety net’ is because when you achieve it, you will exactly be like a fish trapped in the fisherman’s net. You cannot swim. You cannot escape.
It is the ultimate trap for someone with potential for greatness. Because as you are trapped in this safety net, you will lose precious time that you can never recover. Imagine all the things that you could have tried!
When your safety net is exploited and disintegrates, you are once again set loose in the world. You may not feel as safe as you did before, but now you have the freedom to EXPERIMENT.
Because when we are in danger, we seek safety more than anything. It is easy to dream about stuff while you are stuck in the safety net, because you will never take steps to realize those dreams.
But when there no safety net, you have to take steps because you are in danger. Maybe your money is running out. Maybe you will lose chances if you don’t start working right now.
All of this gives you the required energy and motivation to take big and bold steps towards new ideas and innovations that you had stashed in the attic of your mind.
When you are not bound by the safety net, you are not afraid of taking risks because you know that you have nothing to fear or worry about anymore.
All of this is not to say that we should stop our search for financial stability. But we should understand that there is a net and the net traps us in itself until we are pale shadows of our former selves.
What you can do instead is disregard your safety net. Imagine that you have no financial support. Imagine that your money is running out and you need to start trying out different things.
This might not really be true, but it gives you the ultimate incentive to take steps and realize your big goals!
A BIG HUG!
