I think one of the biggest reasons Iāve achieved some pretty cool things in my life is this:
Iām willing to be s**t at things š
Like really s**t šš¤£
I entered a bodybuilding competition with absolutely no experience.
I had no idea who would turn up.
No idea how good theyād be.
And no guarantee that 12 months of giving it everything would result in anything at all.
But I did it anyway.
And I won (third time I tried not the first) š
Not because I never doubted myself. I was absolutely s**tting myself right up until I walked on that stage.
But because I donāt need certainty before I take action.
Iāll start before Iām ready.
Iāll ask the stupid question.
Iāll be the beginner.
Iāll get it wrong.
Iāll risk looking daft.
And Iāll learn as I go.
I see so many incredibly capable women waiting until they feel more confident before they do the thing they REALLY want to do.
But confidence doesnāt usually come first.
You do the scary thing first.
Then you discover what youāre capable of.
If youāre ready to just fu***ng go for it.
Do.
