Here comes the A-C-T Blog! Here I give you an Awe moment from research or own experience, a Citation supporting the topic and a Take away for you to ponder on.

Awe moment

After another sleepless night worrying about the unknown, in a new country, facing constant changes in my own life and career, I stumbled on a thought.
In the current world situation, truly, everything is uncertain. But if we choose to think like this, we fall into the hole of questioning everything; Are the steps we are taking towards our goals even the right ones? Am I making the best decisions? What IF I’m wrong? What IF…?

Citation

“Let go of certainty. The opposite isn’t uncertainty. It’s openness, curiosity and a willingness to embrace paradox, rather than choose up sides. The ultimate challenge is to accept ourselves exactly as we are, but never stop trying to learn and grow.”

Tony Schwartz

Take away

The truth is, whatever uncertainty you’re battling with;
You DON’T have to be 100% sure or ready to make a decision. If you’re even 51% there, do it.
You DON’T have to think of all the things at this moment and time. If you miss something, what’s the worst that can happen? You’ll learn and know better next time.
You DON’T have to worry about every detail with every uncertain feeling or decision in your life. If it’s not gonna matter in 5 Years, don’t spend more than 5 minutes worrying about it.

Take a moment to think how far you’ve already come and everything you’ve learnt and achieved so far. Trust the process and your own abilities. Now, take those uncertainties and ask yourself:

What action could I take today to discover new possibilities or opportunities?
