Daily Mom Hug | Don't Wait

There's no time like the present to begin.

Good morning, fam.

My apologies for being away so long. June and July were stolen by medical crap and recovery, but I’m feeling better, so let’s get back to work!

“Stay afraid, but do it anyway. What’s important is the action. You don’t have to wait to be confident.” - Carrie Fisher

Today, I want to talk about waiting for the perfect opportunity, be it time, education, etc., to do the thing you want to do.

That perfect moment doesn’t exist.

I’m sorry, but it’s true. There are too many variables in this life, typically too many people involved, to provide that one true and perfect moment.

Instead, kiddo, you just need to do it. Whatever it is. Whether it’s moving out or away, starting a new hobby or project, getting to or quitting the gym, changing jobs or demanding a raise, only you can make the first move, take that first step forward.

Is it going to be easy? No, but as the adage goes, nothing worth doing is.

And hey, don’t forget, you’re not alone. I’m here with you every step of the way. Good or bad. Tears of joy or sorrow. Mine is always a shoulder you can lean on.

You’ve got this.

I believe in you, and I will continue to do so until you believe in yourself.

Love,
Your mom
