You don’t actually need a polished plan. That’s the part that trips people up. They think they have to map out everything before they move, but no, you don’t. You don’t even have to feel ready. Most times you won’t. And waiting for that feeling is just another way to stall.
What really matters is just starting. Putting your foot down on that first step even when it feels shaky. Because most people freeze. They circle the same thoughts, over and over, telling themselves “maybe later, maybe when things line up.”
But later doesn’t come. And the truth is, once you move, just once, the whole thing shifts. Motion pulls you forward. It gives you a kind of momentum you can’t think your way into.
Success isn’t about having every single step laid out. It’s about proving to yourself that you’ll take the first one. That’s the difference.
