A speaker argues that nervousness is fuel, not a warning sign. Playing it safe breeds boredom and decline. Stop blaming society and social media. Push harder to reach the next level.

If you want to go to the next level, you're gonna have to require more of yourself than ever before. You're gonna have to challenge yourself. You're gonna have to stretch in new ways. You're the only person who's ever gonna challenge yourself to do something different and something new and something that's harder. And yet at the same time, that energy, those nerves, that anxiousness, some people, when they feel that, they shut down. And other people realize that that is the energy that is giving them the fuel to be present, to get engaged, to pay attention, to be focused, to drive. And that energy, if you haven't felt that for a while, it's because many people are just playing safe. And they're playing so safe that life got boring, that their business declined, that their career isn't going up. And so often, we'll blame society, we'll blame social media, we'll blame everything that we can to avoid the reality that we're not locked in and showing up.
