How To Take Action
I would suggest celebrating your daily wins, no matter how small. Each day, if you work on something important like writing a book or starting a new project, take a moment to acknowledge what you achieved. High five yourself, or even better, share it with someone who supports you. They'll be excited for you, and that encouragement will make you feel great.
Make sure to give encouragement too. If you see someone doing something good, tell them. It's like giving them a little boost to keep going. And when someone tells you that they're proud of you for taking a chance, especially when you normally wouldn't, it's so helpful. It reminds you that it's good to step out of your comfort zone sometimes.
When you're working on a big project, remember that the big reward might come later, not right away. That's why it's important to get and give support along the way. If you're working on a project and you don't see the rewards yet, having someone say, "I'm proud of you," can keep you going.
Pay attention to how you do things. If you're usually super careful and you try something new, let people know. They can help you see your progress and make you feel more comfortable with taking risks.
So, everyday, mark your progress and share it with your support system. And when someone else is brave, tell them they're doing great. It's all about making those small steps feel big, and before you know it, you'll get to where you want to be.
