Every time I think of something new or every time I was presented with different opportunities to overcome an obstacle, there’s always this little voice inside my head saying, “No, I can’t do it. What would other people think? What if they judge me? What if they don’t like me? “ and some other mean words that I tell myself to convince me that I can’t do it. But that’s not me speaking, it’s my inner critic. Eventually, I came to know that it’s not true. All those things I made up in my mind so that I lag myself.
The truth is nobody cares.
We might think that’s the biggest deal in the world. Oh my God, What’re my parents gonna say? What are my friends and university gonna say? But no one actually cares. Everyone in this world is just so worried about themselves.
In Psychology, there is a thing called “The Spotlight Effect”, We all walk through our life thinking that there is a spotlight trained on us and not realizing that everyone is absorbed in their own lives and we are only own heroes of our story and we are like the side-cast in other’s lives.
If you want to do something, just don’t wait for the right time. There is no perfect time to begin. If you wanna learn how to dance, do it. If you wanna start a youtube channel, just do it. If want to start an Instagram page, do it now! If not now, then when?
Just take the Damn First Step!
