Start Before You Are Ready

Sharp insight. Practical action. Every time.

Ever found yourself saying, “Once things settle down…” or “I just need to get everything lined up first…”? One of the best pieces of advice I was given was to build the plane while you're flying.
It’s a trap.

Waiting for perfect conditions is often just fear dressed up as preparation.

The truth?

Clarity doesn’t come before action — it comes from action.
Progress isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about having the courage to take the next step, even if the whole path isn’t clear. With momentum you can change direction if you see you need to. Being static, planning, analyzing, simulating keeps you stuck in the theoretical.

In every business I’ve helped grow, the turning point came when someone said:
"Let’s just get started — we’ll adjust as we go."

That doesn’t mean being reckless. It means trusting your ability to learn on the move.
Build the habit of moving early, refining fast, and staying focused on momentum over perfection. Successful leaders understand that their major contribution is in decision making. 

So, here’s your challenge:

What decision, project, or conversation have you been postponing?
Pick one small step — and do it today.
Progress starts with motion. The rest follows.
