Inaction often stems from fear, uncertainty, or a desire to avoid failure, but doing nothing can be far more costly, preventing opportunities and progress. In personal life, inaction may manifest as procrastination, leading to unfulfilled goals and aspirations. Professionally, it can be seen in missed deadlines or opportunities that could enhance career growth.Talking about my personal life, I have paid the cost of doing nothing and I can say that its a huge price that one can pay. I wanted to join a professional football club to learn football , but couldn’t join because of the fear of things going wrong. After getting a job I got busy in my schedule. I got busy doing coding, attending client calls and in this process I learnt that I’m again repeating the same mistake of not doing anything.Ofcourse I was employed and doing well in job, but still I felt that I’m not doing anything. I thought of starting a side hustle and I chose writing as my side hustle. It didn’t matter what side hustle I chose, but what mattered to me was that I was doing something new. I knew that I have paid the price of doing nothing, so I didn’t want to loose this opportunity.
