do you occasionally find yourself flooded with fears that you are deluding yourself - perhaps you have become over-confident about something and you need to reel yourself in? do you think that you project future outcomes too far down the line?
for example: someone wants to be an actress and they dream about it from a young age - to the point of drafting acceptance speeches for oscar awards but in fact, they suck at acting!
even if you are supremely confident when trying to achieve something - do you still find yourself jumping ahead and making assumptions about outcomes way in the future.
i believe really strongly in visualisation but have become painfully aware that i jump the gun sometimes - perhaps not considering outside influences enough and definately not allowing for probability.
i have learned to take things one step at a time but to believe in every step. has anyone else had life experiences that have led them to this conclusion?
hmmmm........are you saying i am disappearing up my own arse emgem?? actually, that would be fairly true cos i do live alot in my own head. sometimes i am exhausted by all the shennanigans going on in there!
living in the real world is good obviously but doesn't that mean that sometimes you restrict your limitations that way? anyway, the real world can be a bad place to live in 😢
There is no limit to what you can achieve as long as you put your thoughts into action. Over-confidence can be a downfall but more often than not, it`s a driving force. Remember, it`s all about your passion. But be careful, cause if you want something bad enough, you just might get it.
I can relate to your entire original post. It's pretty much a description of me. I usually just envision my goal and then go for it. Just until recently, I thought that I didn't plan anything. I thought that I didn't prepared for anything, showing up and just sort of excelled. I recently realized that I do plan, at least more than I thought I did. it's just done internally, it's just not on paper where people can see. I think I'm a decent strategist but it just doesn't look like it because of how I master my way to get what I want, people tend to just believe that I'm naturally gifted. My successes seem unplanned, unforced but really it is planned internally and worked for, worked very hard for. I very often wish that I had at least one an earth placement. So I could naturally consider practicality a bit more. I usually just visualize and then go for it and adjust on my way there and it's all internalized.
it's interesting to see that if one gives an example that refers to any person, people easily can refer it to the person giving the example. It's just an hypothesis; not necessarily relevant to Rox, but a good observation of others and the real world.
Hey.. you and scorpius are lighting the fire for the scorp forums. Finally here is some meaning again.. nevermind... I may have missed the meaning, but the content is full of life -- as always...
Well put it this way, if you are over confident about something on the surface, and below the surface you are pooping yourself because you think you've overdone it this time, you sure as hell will make it happen because scorps and failure do not go hand in hand...so it's a win win situation 🙂

I am so the same way, I plan everything in my head and then just do it. People look at me and say "How do you just get up and do stuff.
I moved the other day, and did not tell my Gem until the day I was approved. And he said "Why did you move" I told him I wanted a change and so I did it. I then told him that I am prone to making drastic moves without notice to anyone.
He said nothing. Don't know how he really feels about it but the next day he called and said "Hey miss moving lady" All I did as laughed. 🙂
Yep that's me too. It's just recently though that I choose to look further into it and realized that I do plan stuff ahead. It's just not written and unannounced.
