Let me pose a question that will hopefully assist you -

How many people can you think of that have achieved great things in life by easing into something?

Imagine where we would be if the Wright brothers were only going to "try" to fly. Or how bout if Abraham Lincoln would have quit when he was defeated for public office 8 out of 9 times. Now obviously these are extreme examples but the you should get the point nonetheless.

History will tell you over and over and over again that great things are accomplished by putting yourself out there and to use a simple analogy - you'll never actually get into the pool if all you keep doing is sticking your toe in the water. If you ease into a business or anything in life for that matter, you are only providing yourself an excuse for failure.

Anytime you are questioning whether or not you should be taking a particular action or doing a particular thing, ask yourself the following question -

Will this take me closer to my goals?

In that moment, the answer will become crystal clear.
