So many of you are stuck because your parents, friends, or co-workers simply don\u2019t understand why you want to take this \u201crisk\u201d.\xa0
\xa0
Here\u2019s the truth: They don\u2019t have to support you. And you still get to make the decision you want for your life.\xa0
\xa0
Would it be nice if everyone saw the world the way you did and could fully understand your dreams? Yes, of course it would be.
\xa0
Do you need that before you actually take the jump? Absolutely not.
\xa0
The real reason you feel like you need their support is because if they believe in you, it\u2019s easier for YOU to believe in YOU.\xa0
\xa0
When other people express doubt, it triggers the fear and insecurity you already have in this big decision. So you become defensive and spend all of your energy trying to convince them it\u2019s the right choice.\xa0
\xa0
But what you\u2019re really doing is trying to convince yourself. If someone else can see your vision, then it helps reassure that part of your brain that is also screaming \u201cThis is insane! We\u2019re going to regret it!\u201d
\xa0
They don\u2019t have to understand what you want to do. YOU have to understand what you want to do.
They don\u2019t have to believe in you. You have to believe in you.\xa0
\xa0
You will still have doubt. Hell, you can even agree with them that it\u2019s a crazy decision. And you still get to make it.\xa0

If you struggle with this, this week\u2019s podcast is for you. I dive deeper into this concept and explain how you can start moving past needing everyone\u2019s support.\xa0
