Have you ever decided not to do something because “It’s not a good time”?
I’m pretty sure we all have.
I know I have.
But all of us doing something isn’t a reason not to question it.
In fact, it probably is a reason to question it.
Mark Twain famously said “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it may be time to stop and reflect”
And from two decades of experience in this (and approaching 45 years of being alive), I can tell you know………
It’s not a good time.
For anything.
It never is.
I’m not sure I’ve ever met anyone that’s gone on to succeed at something that they’ve struggled with before because the time has become “good”.
The planets never align.
Previous challenges are replaced with a new ones.
That perfect moment never arrives.
Success comes instead from becoming okay with knowingly suboptimal forward progress now (it’s www.myrise.co.uk/apply when you’re ready for that!)
Understanding that will lead to far better results than theoretically better progress deferred.
So, if you’re wondering if now is a good time…….
I’ll tell you now…….
It’s not.
But it’s the only time that ever really exists.
All we can ever do is make good enough choices, on average, in the present to take us in the direction that we decide.
Much love,
