What are you REALLY waiting for?

This week, I was privileged to meet a lot of “new” people, professionally. Which has really been a blessing since I launched Noor Consultancy & Coaching
Conversations were mainly revolving around postponed dreams, parked ambitions, or procrastinated goals.
Each one of them, had a very good “excuse” as to why they were putting this off “for now” that when the time and opportunity is right, they will eventually make it happen.
?I spent a long time, within my career also in the same situation, saying that “one day” I’ll get to doing those things, but there was always another priority, or another concern.
I realized (in retrospect) that these goals/ambitions, could have materialized much sooner, should I have gathered the courage and the effort to commit to them. It’s in no way a regretful thought, but now when I think of putting something I really aspire to achieve off for the “right” time I ask myself – what are you REALLY waiting for??
What I’m starting to learn is, there are no “perfect moments” and that putting off the things that truly light your heart up, takes from you. It takes from you, your inspiration, your joy, and your opportunity to live the “highest, most authentic” version of yourself in the world.
I don’t know, if you have been putting something “off”, but can I kindly encourage you to ask yourself – what are you “REALLY” waiting for?
?You can make it happen for yourself; you can decide on your “perfect” moment. Dreams and talent were not made to be wasted, and you – deserve to live those moments for yourself.

I hope this lands where it is meant to. I hope you decide to explore the opportunity to “jump” – taking a leap of faith in yourself and for yourself.
?Key takeaways:
Lots of love and light, always

2 年THIS!! If there ever was a post that can summarise my entire year's journey it would be this. I realised my fear of failure really did stop me from just trying out new thing. I was afraid if I failed in my passion project, I won't be able to move on, but life doesn't really work that way. My only advice would be is learn how to be patient and kind with yourself, but don't let patience stop u from doing things.
