"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."
