Just Start, You’ll never be “ready”
Exactly what the title says. Don’t be afraid to take that chance. What ever is holding you back right now… what’s truly stopping you? Other people? Their judgement? Who really cares? You or your thoughts about THEIR judgements. Just Start.

Putting Principles into Practice
Consistency. Self-doubt and negative thinking. Poor communication habits.
