One decision shapes everything: treat your life like a system to audit and optimize. You can either commit to becoming antifragile, learning to resist fear and doubt, or stay settled. You cannot do both.
If you want to live well and make enough today to do it again tomorrow, that's within each and every one of yours reach. It's just, it's a math problem. It's auditing the system that you have and optimizing that system to get better results faster and easier. That's all it is. And that's just a decision. You could say, yes, I'm signing up for that. And I'm going to learn how to become antifragile as I go so that I don't cave into fear, doubt, regret, blah, blah, blah. Or I'm not signing up for that journey. I'm going to stay where I am. I'm going to settle. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with settling. We all have different tolerances and temperaments to risk and to putting ourselves out there. And that's fine, but you can't have both.
