The Braver Way

Your Idea Isn't Stupid. You're Just Scared.

What if the thing standing between you and your idea isn't ability, money or opportunity, but simply the fear of beginning?

The Braver Way is a short, visually engaging guide for anyone who has an idea they can't quite let go of, but keeps finding reasons not to start.

Maybe you're thinking about changing career. Starting a business. Writing a book. Creating something. Trying something completely different. Or finally pursuing the idea that's been sitting quietly in the back of your mind for years.

The problem is that taking a leap sounds terrifying.

So don't.

Take a small step instead.

The Braver Way explores a more practical approach to change: testing small, learning quickly, reducing the risk and building enough of a bridge between where you are and where you want to be that starting no longer feels like free-falling.

Written by Matthew Newnham, this illustrated digital book is designed to be read quickly, thought about carefully and, most importantly, acted upon.

Inside you'll explore

• Why perfectly sensible ideas can feel frightening
• The difference between being reckless and being brave
• Why you don't have to quit everything to begin something
• How to test an idea on a small scale
• How to make change financially and practically safer
• Why small, almost invisible steps matter
• How putting a date on an idea changes "someday" into a plan

2. What am I actually afraid of?

Identify what's really preventing you from starting.

3. What's the smallest way I can test it?

You don't need to have everything figured out.

You don't need to know exactly where the idea will take you.

You just need somewhere to begin.

The Braver Way is that first small step.
