Always waiting for the “perfect time” to get started?? To learn a new skill? To eat better? To exercise more? If so, here’s something to think about.
When I get a different job.
When things are less busy.
When I find a workout partner.
When I find the right equipment.
When I feel less awkward in the gym.
When I lose 20 lbs.
When I get the right workout routine.
When my fridge is full of the right foods.
Tomorrow. Next week. Never.
Sound like an ongoing list of excuses that you are feeding to yourself as to why today isn’t the right time to start. What is making you wait for the “perfect” time? Is it fear of failure, embarrassment, or criticism? This is unfortunate and can be the biggest cause of you not getting the results you want out of life. Let’s face it, there is NO magic moment or perfect time to start something new. You need to get out there and go for it.
No one but you can do it for yourself. You need to make the time and find the “perfect” start for you ! At times you look at others and think that it just comes easy to them. They have the time to dedicate to something new. But why not you ? Everyone has 24 hours in a day and you have to make the time for things that are a priority or they will not be accomplished.
Hear this now and at this specific time: That perfect moment is now. Here. Today. You have the power to start! Because that is all you ever have: right now. Don’t think about NEXT, think of right now. All you have to do is start. And then, moments will keep moving, as moments do. One moment will stack on top of another and before you know it, you’ll have arrived at your destination. Don’t doubt your ability to be GREAT !! Take out all the negative self talk and go for it ! Starting means initiating action. Starting means committing to a choice of some kind or another. This is how you know it is a true start.
