Doubt means faith exists. The speaker argues doubt shouldn't stop you from acting, it's a sign you care enough to question. He uses examples from marriage and work to show how people hesitate when they expect things to be hard, but recognizing doubt as evidence of faith lets you move forward anyway.
There's always going to be doubt. And you have to stop stopping when you have doubt, because doubt will forever be there. And if doubt is forever there, that's good, because faith is also there. And so doubt is a signal to learn and have faith. And so for me, if I expect things are going to be bad, I won't take action. But see, most people also expect there's going to be doubt and hardship and struggle. And there's an element where you have to have faith that things are beyond you, that are lining up, that will come to the chessboard, that will serve you, that will help you. And it's hard because if you've been trying in your own life, in your marriage, but the marriage isn't turning out well, now there's doubt there. It's hard to have faith in the marriage and your partner if it's not going well at work. It's hard to have faith in the team. Here's what I tell people. It's almost always hard to have faith unless you just teach yourself to understand. It's easy to have doubt. I know this might sound silly, but once I understand doubt's really easy and doubt implies the existence of faith, then, oh, if I can easily have the doubt, I'll just easily have the faith.
