A group of boys out shooting clay pigeons...Instead of telling them to take their time getting ready, take careful aim, then shoot; let them shoot the gun several times so they can get used to how it feels. After they have the 'feel' down, show them how to aim. After they're accustomed to shooting and aiming, then they are ready to compete.
When taking on a new task, like starting a new business, or some big, new thing we want to start doing; we need to be ready and willing to jump in or tackle the new opportunity immediately. We need to get the feel for “shooting” or trying new things. When that happens we will better judge new opportunities and will find new ways to become successful. We better trust our own intuition.
Once you’ve been through it (”it” meaning taking on new things) a few times, you will get comfortable with the process and then you can fire because your aim is accurate because you are ready.
When you get comfortable, you get confident, and then you progress so much faster.
A statement that helps me understand this concept better is a quote attributed to Thomas Edison
The faster we find things that don’t work, the faster we will find those that will.
