Ever wonder why you still haven’t started on that one thing constantly bugging you from the back of your mind?
Maybe it’s a book idea, a business idea, a workout regime, or prepping for a big exam?
Let me guess…
🤔 Is it because you just haven’t got the time?
🤔 Maybe it’s not a priority right now?
🤔 Or do you just need to get or do something else first?
Whatever your answer is - I call BS. 💩 And if you’re being honest with yourself, you’ll agree with me.
Forget about all your excuses and honestly ask yourself: could the problem be your ego?
Do you really not have the time or are you too good to start by investing 15 minutes a day? 😒
Do you need to do or get something before or are you scared to start with what you have here and now? 😬
AKA - do you think that if you don’t go all in you might as well not start at all?
BAM!
Here it is - your ego.
Your ego is that tiny annoying voice of perfectionism - waiting for all the right stars to align for you to be able to do something.
But let me tell you something - waiting for the perfect conditions is nothing but preparing for a downfall.
Well, not even a downfall. To fall from somewhere you would need to get there first.
This is even worse. It’s stagnation. ✋
It’s staying comfortable in your little bubble of mental discomfort - and for what?
Ditch the ‘’all or nothing’’ mentality.
Start now. Where you are. With what you have.
Everything else you need will find you along the way.
Until the next Thursday,
Your Glowing Bestie ❤️
