The perfect moment is a myth we sell ourselves.
You’re waiting for the right time to have that difficult conversation. To make that career move. To start that business. To fix that relationship.
But here’s what actually happens while you wait: nothing.
The economy will always have uncertainty. Your schedule will never clear up completely. You’ll never feel 100% ready. The stars won’t align.
Meanwhile, someone else with worse credentials and less experience just started. They’re learning by doing while you’re perfecting your plan.
The people who create extraordinary outcomes don’t wait for good times. They create them.
Every significant decision in your life happened when the timing was questionable. You took that job when you weren’t sure you were qualified. You moved to that city when it felt risky. You committed to that relationship when you couldn’t guarantee the outcome.
The best time was probably last year. The second best time is now.
Your future self isn’t waiting for you to feel confident. They’re waiting for you to begin.
