Many people feel that you become good at something, because you never make mistakes. But what they don't realize is that, you get good at something, because you've made almost all the mistakes there are to make. And now, you've known all the wrong ways of doing that thing. And most importantly, you've realized the right way it has to be done.
You may spend so much time contemplating about starting something that you really want. You may be scared that you're not prepared enough, and that you should wait until you're perfect before you start. Here's the truth - that perfect time hardly ever comes, because no matter at what time you start, you'll still see that there are things you can't understand until you've made several mistakes.
Those mistakes, those small failures are the exact things you need in order to master your area of business. Thus, if you learn as much as you need to know, and quickly launch out, you will make your mistakes faster and become a master quicker. Here's why - when you first launch out, if you make several mistakes. You'll be getting feedback on ways that you shouldn't do that thing.

And if you're not making progress, you'll quickly realize that you need to go back to your drawing board, and make adjustments. Whereas, the man who thinks that he has read everything, but hasn't tried it out, is way behind. Because whenever he still chooses to go out and try it, that's when his real journey of mastery will begin.
Hence, you shouldn't slow down on your dreams and aspirations. If there's something that you want to do or feel that you will be good at doing. Stop wasting time - find a way to get practical, and actually do it. So much more is understood by doing. Don't be scared of making mistakes. Every child that wants to walk, will surely fall several times, before he will walk. Mistakes are in truth, the way to mastery. Hence, make those mistakes faster, so that you can attain mastery much faster.
