Stop Waiting For The Perfect Time And Get Moving Now To Work On Your Goal Or Dream!

How long have you been waiting to start working on your goal or dream? Most people get stuck in a cyclical mode of waiting for everything to be perfect. Everyone seems to be waiting for the right moment or the right economic conditions to finally pull the trigger and get started. To me, this is a huge mistake.  The perfect time is now!  

Time is more important than timing. If you think about it, the only one thing we all have in common is the same 24 hours every day.  Instead of trying to get so overly focused on the timing, focus on starting something.  People have achieved their goals or dreams in the most challenging economic crisis as well as in the most thriving economic climates, it’s because they started to work on them instead of waiting.

Begin by acting on your plans today!

1. You will never be ready.  Most people love to stall, it’s in our nature. If you wait until everything is ready, you’ll still be waiting while everything around you move forward. Do you even know what the first step is? That’s all you need to know.  Just do it and you’ll figure out the rest along the way. It’s like walking up the stairs. You only need to see one step at a time to make it to the top.
2. The perfect time will never happen.  Again, you’ll be waiting until your dead. There will never be a good time to get started. You will always find an excuse. All of the variables will never be in perfect alignment. The most perfect time you’re going to get is right now.
3. The sooner you get started, the sooner you can be successful.  The advantages of getting started now are huge. The most relevant is the fact that you can achieve your goals sooner than later.  The sooner you begin any journey, the sooner you reach your destination.
4. Your natural inclination is to wait too long.  We always wait too long. When is the last time you did something too soon? Everyone else is waiting. Be the person that doesn’t wait. Fortune comes to those that are bold, so be bold.
5. Your natural tendency is to over analyze.  We naturally want to know everything there is to know before we take the first step. Unfortunately, we can’t know everything. Life sometimes unfolds in unpredictable ways. You know more than enough to get started. Just do it.
6. The most successful people make decisions quickly and stick with them.  The least successful people are terrible at making up their minds. They’re eternally conflicted for a variety of reasons, primarily fear. This could be a fear of failure and it could also be a fear of success.  Give yourself a time limit to decide and then run with it. A decent decision, made quickly, that you stick with, is better than a great decision, six months or a year from now, that you can’t maintain. Practice making decisions quickly and move forward with them. This is a great habit to develop.
7. The quicker you take action, the more you’ll learn.  Action typically leads to results. You learn something new each time you get a result. You’re not producing any results while you’re sitting around waiting for the perfect moment to act.
8. Action leads to inspiration.  Most people falsely believe that they’ll take action when they feel inspired. But the opposite is true. Action leads to inspiration. Inspiration leads to even more action.

Why are you waiting? The most real and common answer is fear. If you never get started, there’s still hope, since you can’t know for sure that your plans won’t work. If you never begin, you can’t fail.  

However, the opposite is true, too.  If you never get started, there’s no real hope of anything better.  If you never begin, you’re guaranteed to fail.

Take a deep breath and get started today.  You’ll never be 100% ready or comfortable, so begin right now. Now is the perfect moment to change your life forever.
