Do the damn thing... with help

Sometimes, it's really hard to just do the damn thing.

Say "I want to break up. I love you, but we're not right for each other." Say "No, I don't work on weekends." To get your workout clothes on your body, then leave the house.

And especially: Carve out time and space for the creative side project you've been talking about (maybe for years). But it’s time.

It’s also easier when we enlist the help of others to do the thing we’ve been afraid to try. We're social animals. Doesn't it feel easier to do something if you have a couple people supporting you through it, checking in?

I used to try to do everything by myself. It was based on a desire to be self-sufficient, not needing other people to get out of a jam or solve a puzzle. Well, as it turns out: it created a powerful drag that slowed me up for years. People are incredible resources if you allow them to be.

The bravest people I know reach out when they need help. That's how they're able to accomplish so much.

Who do you feel comfortable leaning on?
