Slap #005: You’re Not Waiting. You’re Wasting.

--

There is no perfect moment. There is only now, and guess what — you are burning it.

Don’t burn it — seize it. Photo by Eugene Shelestov.

You keep saying:

“It’s not the right time.”
“I’m just being strategic.”
“I want to be ready.”

But let’s call it what it is:
- You are wasting time.
- You’re not being smart or patient.
- You’re just being scared, afraid to poke your head out of your comfy hole and face the world.

You want Certainty before Action, Confidence before Courage and Validation before Execution!

But none of those things come first.

You don’t wait for the right moment — you make it right by doing something.

You are not “early in the process.” You’re just late on starting.

Every second you stall is one more second someone else moves.
Not better than you.
Not smarter than you.
Just bolder than you.

And that’s the part that stings, isn’t it?

So what now?

Accept that readiness is a myth.
Stop polishing your excuses until they sound like strategy.
Do something. Do anything.

Because waiting feels responsible.
But it’s the most dangerous habit you’ve got.

You are wasting a life that someone else would kill for.

Hope this one struck (pun always intended) a chord as well. Sing.
Until tomorrow.
