The Perfect Time...

"What if" "What could've been"

Those two phrases, we've all heard someone say them, perhaps we've been guilty of saying them ourselves?

I've had a lot of friends recently, saying they want to start their own company or people full of regret they hadn't done their own thing when they were young.

Whenever someone mentions an idea they have and my response is "That sounds awesome, why don't you just do it?!" You always get a response that goes similar to "Ah well, the times not right, I'm just waiting for this one thing...." or "I'd love to get started but...."

Now, here lies the problem. To put it bluntly, people put off decisions because they want to avoid the potential failure, embarrassment or criticism.

Why does this scare people? Is it because they don't want to be seen to fail in front of their friends and family? Are they afraid of the unknown? Have they got too comfortable with life? We shouldn't be afraid of risk...where's the fun in something if it was easy?!

The truth is, the perfect time to do something doesn't exist, bite the bullet and GO FOR IT. I love it when people take that leap of faith, regardless if they succeed or fail. It takes real guts, to follow your dream and pathway.

When that moment comes around, you should grab it with both hands and avoid the questions of "What if...." later on in life. The hardest part is starting, then you embrace the journey and enjoy it!

I hope the video below makes someone, somewhere start their journey and forget about the PERFECT TIME!!!
