Take steps toward what you want. The best action is the next one. Action breeds clarity. Also, understand that there is a time for action and inaction. Know what you need to do and execute.

3. Do it anyway

You will always have people or circumstances they may not be favorable. The question is, can we proceed anyway. You must do in your heart that you know what your called to. If you don’t you will have regrets, and always wonder about the person that you could be. Will you live by faith, or fear?

Freedom

Be willing to say no to the things that no longer serve you, or don’t help you reach your goals. Knowing your values and standards is key. If you don’t know who you are, it’s a lot harder to make decisions.
