I have this lovely saying \u2018If in doubt give it ago\u2019 and have developed my career using this concept Often people I speak to about it this concept say \u2018What happens if things go wrong\u2019 Well of course things can go wrong but you will still benefit from the experience, why because you will learn from the experience and that\u2019s the key concept of the saying \u2018If in doubt give it ago\u2019 Learning from your experiences.  

When I started up my business in providing training courses for businesses, I had to do some work as an associate trainer for a very well-known training company. I built a very good relationship with all of the account managers who would call up me up and ask if I could run some courses for their clients. More times than not I would say yes even if it was a subject, I wasn\u2019t necessarily totally familiar with, I just thought well \u2018if in doubt give it a go\u2019 and I did. I carried out the research wrote the course and materials along with some practice I was good to go and yes learnt from the experiences and I would say 97% of the time all went well. After a period of time I then had a totally new portfolio of courses I could now deliver with all the materials. Bingo.  

Naturally, I didn\u2019t accept topics I knew I could not deliver or wasn\u2019t interested in the subject matter. Since those days and I built up my own client base with good relationships with my contacts and often they would challenge me with requests to give talks to groups, facilitation of   challenge groups and my answer would always be yes.  What can you say yes to more often?
