We often reach points where, in order to progress, we must take a leap of faith. These can be scary and even serve as boundaries that stop us in our tracks. But, you can make these ‘leaps’ much less intimidating by cushioning and preparing yourself in every way possible. This may mean setting up habits and systems for yourself in advance, because you know that they will be invaluable once you take that step. It means ensuring that you have the right support around you in your relationships and business. It means you have contingency plans in case things go sideways and you need to regroup. Taking a leap of faith is not a foolish thing to do if you have done all in your power to increase the likelihood of success. Of course, there will always be elements of the unknown – that is the beauty of these leaps that differentiate you from who you previously were. It is what helps you to grow and the only way to end your ceaseless wondering about ‘what if?’. It is still a jump, of course – but a calculated and cushioned one that doesn’t create needless casualties
