Today I was talking to something of a life coach, kind of a group mentorship session I attended, and one thing stuck with me. I was told that sometimes, we see the step we need to take towards actualizing our dreams, but we often worry or grow fearful of how our future self might mess up the opportunity, or fail, or disappoint. And the advice I was given, was to simply put some trust in your future self.
Trust that the version of you after you take that initial step will have more passion, more experience, more dedication, and especially, will have the capability to solve whatever problems may arise at said point in the future. As someone who deals with thinking too far ahead and contemplating the bad outcomes, that was immense advice. Just trust who you are going to become to do what is needed and move forward.
hope that helps!
