Start before you’re ready
The best time to begin working on your next big business idea or creative project? That will be now.
When is the best time to launch a new idea?
The answer is nearly always now.
We all have projects we dream of doing: a business idea, a book, a big creative project. But we’re waiting for the time to be right.
We tell ourselves we need to think about it a little more, to wait until we’ve got more time, more space, more money. Until our day job is less demanding, the to-do list is done, the children are a little older or until we finally have a workspace to ourselves..
We convince ourselves that we need more experience to start, more skills, an expensive bit of kit that we can’t quite afford right now.
We need to hang on, until conditions are perfect. Then we’ll begin.
But here’s the thing. Life will always get in the way, because that’s what life does. But in every moment, you have a choice. You can begin. You can make the work you were meant to make.
No time to begin a new project?
Time is always scarce. So make time. Take it.
