You will never be ready

Don’t be deceived. You are not ready for anything now. You will never be ready for anything.

Most things.

Stages of life, phases of life.

Marriage, growth, success, childbirth etc.

The thing is we confuse two things. Being ready for whatever, with being ready to experience whatever “whatever” throws at us.

There will never be a perfect time to do something that stretches you. That’s true whether you are starting a marriage, having your first child, changing careers, or wrestling with any number of challenging goals. That’s not a license to be reckless and never think things through, but at some point you have to embrace the uncertainty because it is the only path forward.
