The one thing keeping you stuck

Here’s something I’ve come to learn… if you’re waiting until you feel ready to take action, then you’ve waited too long.

How many times have you told yourself, 'I’ll start when I feel ready'?

But let’s be real—ready is an illusion. It’s a trap that keeps you stuck, waiting for the perfect moment that never comes.

The truth is, most successful entrepreneurs didn’t start when they felt ready. They started when they decided to.

Listen, your brain is wired to keep you safe, which often means keeping you in your comfort zone.

The fear of failure, unknown, or even success itself can convince you that you need just a little more time. A little more preparation, and a little more something before you take action.

But that’s just your mind playing tricks on you. Growth doesn’t happen in waiting—it happens in movement.

Think about the most transformative experiences in your life. Were you fully prepared for them?

Probably not.

But you figured things out as you went. You adapted, learned, and evolved. Business is no different. Clarity, confidence, and momentum come from doing, not waiting.

Every step you take creates the next one. And every action you take gives you feedback. Feedback on what to continue doing, or feedback on what to do differently.

Look, you can't think your way into success. You have to act your way into it.

If you keep waiting for the stars to align, you’ll wake up a year from now, still stuck in the same place, wondering why nothing has changed.

Meanwhile, the ones who took imperfect action are miles ahead, simply because they dared to start before they felt ready.

So let this be your sign.

Stop waiting.

Stop overthinking.

And take the leap, messy and all.

Will it be perfect?

No.

Will you make mistakes?

Absolutely!

But that’s how you learn, grow, and win!

Your future self is already thriving. Your job is to start moving toward them.

Ready or not—go.
