Why You’re Still Waiting to Get Started On Your Dreams
Do you tell yourself that you’ll get started on your big plans at some future date? You can start a business after the kids graduate from college? Or, maybe you’ll just wait until Memorial Day to begin your exercise program. We’ve all done it. There always seems to be a good reason NOT to get started right here and now.
Here at Lights On Business, we focus on mindset a great deal. Lightworker Leaders aren’t “smarter”, or “better prepared”, or “more experienced”. When Lightworker Leaders are ready to take a step, they. We support them in moving through to their next best.
Are you sure you know the real reason you’re waiting? If you’re waiting to begin pursuing your dreams, you’re likely just procrastinating!
“At Lights On Business, we show you how to get a business you love and a business that loves you back.”
Consider these excuses. Is one of them yours?
~1 You’re waiting for the perfect time. Are you waiting for the stars to align and the heavens to tap you on the shoulder and give you permission? You could be waiting for a long time. The time will never be perfect to get started on something significant, so just get started.
~2 You’re waiting for something else to happen first. Maybe you’re waiting for the kids to move out or for the mortgage to be paid off. Or you’re waiting until your next promotion. Or you’re waiting until your parents pass away.
~3 You’re waiting until you have more money. Regardless of your budget, there’s something you can do to get started today. Even if it’s just doing research and learning new skills, you can do something. It’s easy to argue that there’s never enough money. There is plenty of money circulating! You’ll find the money you need along the way.
~4 You’re waiting for Monday, or the first of the month, or the first of the year. So many people wait until Monday to start a diet, or the first of the month to begin an exercise routine. There’s nothing magical about any date on the calendar. The calendar is a man-made invention. There’s no reason to be bound by it.
- Will you get more accomplished if you start today or wait three weeks?
~5 You’re waiting until you know more. Some people believe they need to know every shred of information related to their quest before they can get started. This simply isn’t true. It’s a procrastination technique. You don’t need to know a lot to begin.
~6 You don’t really think you’ll be successful. It makes sense that you won’t get started if you believe you can’t be successful. However, we really don’t know that we won’t e successful before we try. What if the universe is waiting for us to just make a start? A start doesn’t have to be perfect, just a step forward.
~7 You’re afraid you will be successful. Many people are afraid of success. They’re comfortable with their current situation even if they don’t like it. They would rather have predictable misery than uncertain success. There’s no way to predict 100% what your life will be like if you’re successful.
- Focus on the positive aspects of achieving success. List out all of the benefits and visualize yourself enjoying those benefits.
~8 You’re scared. If you’re honest with yourself, this is the most likely reason you’re postponing the pursuit of your dreams. Whether you dread the feeling of being hungry on a diet, sweating on a treadmill, or making a fool out of yourself with a failed business, you’re simply afraid.
In most cases, it’s better to get started immediately, rather than waiting for just the right time to get started. Even a little progress is better than no progress. Have faith in yourself and jump in with both feet.
Your dreams are waiting for you.
