Jumping In

Sometimes you’ve got to go with your heart – no matter what it is your head is telling you. This can be really difficult, especially if you’re anything like me. I’m a planner by nature. I like to know where I’m going and how I’m getting there. The concept of jumping into something is quite scary, and for me it’s akin to diving out of a plane without a parachute. All that being said, sometimes, you’ve just got to go with it.

Sometimes you come upon a business opportunity that you need to act upon. Once you’ve got the idea, and you start making moves towards bringing that idea to fruition, things move very quickly. When you stop to think about it, it might seem to outside eyes that you’ve acted in an extremely impulsive manner when you’ve just been going on a hunch. This is the way I’ve done business. It sounds nuts, but it’s worked out. Perhaps it’s “The Secret,” but perhaps it’s just feeling like I need to get a jump on things.

The same thing can happen in relationships. It’s always been said that they come around when you’re not looking for them. That’s pretty much true. Sometimes you’ve just gotta throw away all of the ridiculous fears and decide to trust someone and to trust your instincts. Pacing yourself is good, but sometimes you just “click.” I’ve rarely let intuition in with relationships…instead, I wind up analyzing everything entirely too much. However, like in business, when it’s right, it’s right – and you know it.
