I have never heard someone talk about their dream and say, but I just want to be average at that.
We all want to be great.
That holds us back more than anything.
It seems as soon as we start to implement a plan towards greatness, it becomes obvious that we might not be great.
Then we stall out.
This happens to me more than I’d like to admit.
I have been wanting to build an online course for well over a year.
I was discussing it with a friend the other day and I said, “I just don’t know what it will be or what it will look like”.
He said the best thing someone could have ever said to me.
He said, “it will probably look really crappy at first.”
And it took away all of the pressure my ego had on me to be perfect, smart and great.
No matter how hard I try, it probably will look really crappy at first.
It doesn’t have to look crappy, but it probably will.
Thank goodness that’s the expectation because that’s achievable.
Now maybe I can finally start building it.

P.S. I think I have an idea in mind, but I would love to hear if you have any great ideas you’re not planning to use for an online course.
