Countless people keep stuck in a comfort zone, repeating to themselves, “I’m not ready,” or “It’s too risky.” This mindset constrains growth and keeps you playing small.
The reason self limitation?
Anxiety usually masquerades as prudence, turning rational thoughts appear irrational. External get details expectations press us toward average, and inner voices repeat “don’t aim high.”
