Wednesday Inspiration #15
Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful. – Mark Victor Hansen
If you are waiting for all the pieces of your puzzle to fall perfectly in place before you move or before you make a decision – you will never get started. Saying that you are waiting for things to get right is an excuse. Waiting for things to change, like money, your job, your spouse, your kids, your friends, your situation implies that there is no other action required from you but to wait. If patience is a virtue, avoidance and procrastination are vices that contradict its value.
Allowing your dreams to be put on hold and your life to become stagnant while you wait for things to work out will only lead to frustration and disappointment.
Your situation may not be perfect, but you can perfectly position yourself for the opportunity you need.
Coaching Challenge: Identify three small steps you can take today to work toward your goals. It could be a phone call, a google search, printing your resume – whatever the three things you choose – commit and do it NOW!
