Leap!
# Chapter 95
“You take leaps of faith by putting yourself in demanding situations that require you to be substantially more than you currently are. In those situations, you'll need to decide who you will need to be and then act as if you are already that person.” Ben Hardy
The previous chapter outlined what you need to do to become exponentially more. Know what you want. Take giant leaps of faith toward that wanted version of you. So how do you do that?
Most of us are firmly committed into the average day to day track. We want stability and predictability more than almost anything else it seems by the choices we make. That has to change.
Now you will be willingly and purposefully placing yourself in demanding situations that will require much more of you, or you are gonna spectacularly face-plant in front of everyone. If the thought of that causes you to hyper-ventilate then good. If that thought doesn’t abuse you to even break a sweat, then you aren’t reaching far enough. “Substantially” is the key word here. Prepare for some failures. Maybe even some epic ones!
No safety netting, no back doors, no saving face. You will now make choices that are far above your current pay grade or your current role. Remember these are leaps of faith . . . in yourself. You got this. You can do this. You can exponentially change your current course in life and your current leverage to change the world, and yourself in the process. Its called ‘faith” for a reason. Inherent risk. But other words for faith are trust and confidence. Leap!
