Whether we realize it or not, the main question that runs through our minds when making a decision is “What If”. That simple statement has the ability to change the course of our lives. What if I do this and that happens? What if I don’t do this and that happens? Either way we ask the question, “WHAT IF”, it is a vital thought process within our decision making.
As I have written many times before, the majority of humans living in society are guided because of their fears of the unknown. They are comfortable with routine and complacency. “WHAT IF” rules their world and therefore they continue to exist in their daily schedule with little variation from the norm.
What if has the power to rule over one’s ambitions. In fact, the primary reason a person will give up is because the risk of the WHAT IF is too large for them to bare.
WHAT IF has the ability to divert from one’s focus point and instead stop them from trying at all. “What if I were to fail?” is the key factor that plays over and over in the minds of most and detains their aspirations.
It is a fact, that in order to climb the highest mountain, you have to be willing to set aside all possible tragedies that could happen and focus on the feat ahead. “The Bigger The Risk, The Bigger The Reward.”
And then there are some. There are the doers, the risk-takers, and the champions. They choose to use the “What if” question differently. What if I actually did it? What if I actually reached my end goal? I would say this is the most important way to utilize the famous question. If you have a choice in this life; to either overcome obstacles or let them overtake you, WHAT WOULD YOU CHOOSE? By remaining mentally focused and POSITIVE you have the potential to create and accomplish many things in this lifetime. How can you possibly create the reality you have always dreamed of, if you are afraid of the “WHAT IF?”
