Summary

Taking the leap toward your biggest dreams can feel scary or even downright terrifying. There’s a reason they call it “taking a leap” because we often are unsure of what the outcome will be. While there are risks that come with going after what you want, there are also a lot of risks that come from avoiding opportunity. Today, I’m sharing how to strategically make the leap so you can feel like you have a plan and know the risks involved. I’ll dive into how to reverse engineer a plan with the end goal in mind, how to determine which risks are worth taking and how to assess the positive outcomes that could come with taking risks.

What’s In This Episode:

Starting with the end in mind so you can reverse engineer a plan

Recognizing that you’ll have to trudge through the highs and lows

Assessing positive outcomes that come with taking risks

How to know which risks are worth taking

4 things to consider as you are assessing risks and creating a plan

0:22.2	dalton.com slash podcast. And now here's your host, Tanya Dalton. Hello, hello everyone. Welcome
0:31.0	to Productivity Paradox. I'm your host, Tanya Dalton, and this is episode 143, how to realistically make the leap. It's hard to believe,
0:42.6	but this is the last episode of season 11, where we've been talking all season long about small
0:48.8	changes for a big impact. We've covered a lot this season in an effort to help you realize sometimes it's the
0:56.5	small actions that have the really big effect in our lives and in the lives of other people.
1:03.0	So today, we are going to close out our small changes for big impact season by talking about making
1:09.1	the leap. That's right. Taking the plunge, jumping off the ledge,
1:13.9	going for broke. Call it whatever you want it. But before you actually take that leap in hopes of
1:20.5	soaring to new heights or making a big impact, first we're going to talk about how to do it

1:35.0	How you can make a plan and assess the risks so that you don't feel like you're jumping into the vast unknown with a very little preparation.

1:50.9	territory, boy, there can be a lot of fear around. So we're going to touch on that once again,
1:56.9	and the idea, too, of starting with the end in mind. So you can sort of reverse engineer a plan to help you minimize the risks.
2:06.3	So let's make the leap and jump right in, shall we?
2:11.1	Okay, so first of all, I know I'm encouraging you to make a leap
