Short motivational talk by Dr. Aziz advising listeners to recognize doubt as fear that delays action. He warns doubt will alternately tell you "wait" (too early) and later "it's too late," and urges defying that voice by taking the risk now (start a business, approach someone, etc.).
Don't let doubt get you with this little trick. You know, when you want to do something in your life, you want to take a risk. You want to go for it. You want to create a business or approach somebody. Doubt will say, no, no, not now, now is not the time. Wait, research more, study more, figure it out, get better at approaching people, then go do the thing. Wait, wait, wait. And then months go by, years go by, and then guess what? Without missing a beat, doubt will flip and go from wait to it's too late, it's too late, it's too late, you're too old. The moment has passed, the opportunity has passed, just too late. And it's crazy, isn't it? But that's because doubt is not about truth. Doubt is about fear and trying to stop you from taking the risks that you need to take to live your life with confidence. So the next time doubt tells you it's too early or it's too late, defy the doubt and do the very thing that it says it's too late to do.
