“What’s the worse that can happen, and can I live with it?”
I love great questions. Like great quotes, I actually collect them as a hobby (I know, I know – get a life etc. 🙂 )
The above question is one that I believe is well known but not well used. This question is a great one to ask yourself when faced with key decisions to make. For example:
– Starting a new business
– Ending a business
– Changing role or career
– Moving city or country
– Learning a new skill
– Seeking help/assistance
– Hiring someone
– Firing someone!
– Taking up a new hobby
– Writing a book or writing anything
– Anything that makes you a little nervous…
Once you’re okay with the worst that can happen, it’s easier to take next steps. Often we inflate the risks of decisions or new roads in our minds until they become ‘everest’ scale problems instead of minor setbacks – a setback being impermanent!
So I encourage you to look at the goals you’d really like to achieve this year, ask the above question and write down the answers on paper. It will help you make better decisions faster. If you can’t live with it, then drop it. If you can, take a next step. And keep moving.
