This picture was taken on a day that my husband and I decided to do a 6-hour hike in the Maluti Mountains. When Andrew took this picture, I was probably feeling a little teary and sorry for myself already.
The problem was - we started a bit late (okay very late) in the day AND it was winter, so it got dark early.
It turned out to be one of the more difficult days in my life (I can say it with a smile now!). It was freezing cold, a VERY long climb, and it was a wild scramble with trembling legs (from pure exertion) to get down the mountain while it was still
light outside.
That evening, the long hot bath, glass of wine and fabulous night's rest were some of the best in my life, too!
We jumped into that adventure without giving it too much thought. Andrew is a DOER and his first thought is usually "Of course we can do it!"
That's not always the case for us introverts, is it?
Sometimes, we want to climb a mountain (reach a goal, start a project, start a business, apply for a job) and when we look up at it, it looks too big to climb. We think long and hard (and think some more) about what it will take, or we lack the
confidence to start, and then.... we just never get out of the starting blocks.
Yet, that thing we dream of keeps calling to us. Not starting (or in other words, procrastinating) can cause untold stress and anxiety.
That sick feeling of "I know I want to.... I just don't know where to start. If only I had more
confidence.... It feels overwhelming. I don't know what to do first."
Sometimes we know what's in the way, and sometimes we really can't figure out what's underneath that procrastination.
Are you in that place right now? Or know of someone who is?
GREAT news!
