1. What is your cliff edge situation? Name the decision you're facing (real or imagined) and what's on both sides.
IMAGINED: I have one chance to board a spaceship leaving Earth to build the first human settlement on another planet. On one side is a future filled with discovery, purpose, and adventure. On the other side is staying behind with everything familiar but always wondering what could have been.
2. If you STEP FORWARD, what do you LEAP TO? If you STEP BACK, what do you FALL INTO? Be specific.
If I step forward, I LEAP TO a life of exploration, new horizons, and the chance to help shape history. If I step back, I FALL INTO regret, comfort without growth, and years of asking myself "what if?"
3. What is the ONE thing you're risking by stepping forward? What is the ONE thing you're protecting by stepping back? Which one hurts more?
I am risking my connection to the world I know and love. I am protecting my comfort and certainty. Losing the opportunity to become part of something extraordinary hurts more.
4. Write your cliff edge promise:
I STAND at the edge of leaving Earth for a new world and I STEP forward because some opportunities only come once, and courage is choosing possibility over fear.
