Do one thing every day that scares you
                                                                         Eleanor Roosevelt

How can we overcome self-paralysis and take action? This 13 minute video outlines a powerful exercise that helps stop the messages our brain is continually playing in the background. 'We suffer more often in imagination than reality' explains the speaker Tim Ferriss. Watch his powerful story and take out 3 pieces of paper.
Page 1: 3 columns related to a specific fear.
Column 1: List what you fear might happen if you take this action 
Column 2: List the actions you can take to decrease the risk of those specific fears becoming a reality
Column 3: If the thing you fear becomes a reality, list the actions you can take to repair.
Page 2: What might be the benefits of an attempt or partial success
Page 3: Hint--MOST IMPORTANT. The Cost of Inaction. If I avoid this action, what might my life look like in 6 months, 6 months, 3 years?
