9 - Barrier Two: Doubt

Even if we are financially literate, let’s whip our character into shape so that there truly isn’t anything preventing us from progressing. This is my second post in the barrier series and it addresses doubt. The thing about doubt is that this one is subtle and could trip us up without us even knowing it. There will be times when we weigh up options and discern if something is too risky, but rather than cutting off ideas instantly because of doubt, let’s create a new approach in us that analyses and critiques things before dismissing them. It could be a business venture that has entered your mind, a new opportunity perhaps, or even a rare investment opening. Even if the final answer is a no, let's be the ones who opened ourselves up and analyse before getting to that answer. I’m sure this approach overall will end up with us catching more winning opportunities that others will miss.
