The Path from Simple to Easy
There is a profound difference, and perhaps light years, between simple and easy.
I'll show you.
A young adult is on a plane preparing for their first ever skydiving jump. They have trained. They are ready. Now comes the moment of truth.
The instructor opens the plane's door. He announces they are nearing the jump area. All the student has to do is take one step. One little step. Simple, they have been walking for over twenty years. One step is nothing. It's simple.
But, it's not easy. Even though the would-be skydiver has anticipated this moment, the rush of the wind, the splendor of seeing the scenery unfold, the elation of feeling like your flying.
The step is simple, but not easy. It takes every ounce of mental strength that young skydiver can muster to take that step.
Flash forward a few years and the now experienced skydiver is about to embark on their 100th jump. The simple is now easy. The few stomach butterflies just add to the thrill. The anticipation now centers on practicing new and difficult maneuvers.
The path from simple to easy is mindset and experience. Mindset first, that is what gets you out the door. Experience, because every win builds confidence. The obstacles simply serve to add more tools to the toolbox.
Believe you can. Believe you will fly. Believe you will land. Now jump!
All the best.

Oh yea, and what a feeling that is. Once we get over the initial thrills, many things become second nature. Take for instance Indiana Jones, when he had to take that leap of faith to save his Father. A bit different but exhilarating nonetheless, and got it done. We all have those same elements within us, Its just a matter of time before it catches up with us. Thank you and Skydiving happens to be on my to do list.
Have you ever jumped from a plane? How is your experience? The meaning of the story is great, thanks.

I could honestly say I have, but that would be misleading. I worked about 15 years for a large aircraft manufacturing firm. Some of my work was done on the aircraft. So, I have jumped from planes, but they were safely on the ground.
Good stuff Joe, thanks for sharing. I've practiced pre-visualization since I was a young man competing in track and field. I've continued to use it in business and daily life, keeping focused and walking through every step successfully prior to jumping out the door. Peace my friend. :-)
Thanks, Bob. Athletes are often taught this. I do a lot of public speaking and I visualized myself speaking. It helps a lot. This should be taught to everyone.
Thanks for your comment.

I don't know if I could. I wanted to try it when I was younger, but the feeling has passed.
