““Why Do Some People NOT Take Initiative? • They have a FEAR of . . . rejection, looking stupid, failing, criticism, getting out of their comfort zone, or imposing on other people. • They are unmotivated or uninspired. • They get stuck in negativity, confusion, stress, or doubt. • They don’t want to upset the apple cart or the status quo. • They are lazy, disengaged, or indifferent. • They have LACK of . . . energy, desire, confidence, self-esteem, skills, creativity, imagination, connections, resources, education.””
