When is your time?

“I am no longer hesitant.

I am ready.

I am fearless.” 

― Jessica Brody, Unchanged

I think we are lazy and scared, by default. Nobody is courageous and fearless all the time or even by default. The difference is that some people made the choice to work hard and to take risks. It's a choice. People say this "If you wait for the right moment or the perfect moment when all is safe and assured, it may never come". And that's the truth. How do you know when is the right timing? How do you know that this is the right person or not? How do you know that this is actually your dream job? How do you know any of that if you've never try. Having XYZ amount of money in your bank account won't guarantee that you won't worry about money any more. Achieving that XYZ states will not promise you that people would respect you or love you. Having a degree in XYZ does't promise you a good future. So why do we wait for the right moment? What is the right moment? 

Whether you show up or not determines the result, no matter what. If you show up for whatever that is, even if you fail, you don't ever have to be tormented by the feeling of "but, what if I did show up?" or "what if I did do it? You make that decision. You've heard that right before people die, what they regret is not what they did, but what they didn't do. And that's not exactly a right moment to notice that because you are about to die for God's sake. You make the decision that this is the right moment even if that scares you. You make that decision to say that I am not going to be lazy any more, even if that takes you out of comfort zone. Things changes. What's going on outside of us changes constantly, even as we speak. People change all the time. We change all the time. So, whatever the elements that we think that'll make "the right moment" doesn't exist. All it takes is for you to say that "This is the right moment because I said so". 

Why do we wait for the "right" moment? Because we don't wanna fail, we don't want to look bad, we don't want want other people to think we are stupid, we want something to fall back on... the list goes on and on. The reality is that we are only creating excuses for ourselves. We are just so focused on what we shouldn't do this, rather than why we should do this, or what our heart is telling us to do. Make a choice today to be bold. Make a commitment to yourself that you will show up for yourself. Make a peace with yourself that you are more than enough. More than enough it doesn't mean you don't have to work hard. If anything you have to work even harder. Accepting that you are more than enough means that you are taking a responsibility for your own life. It means that you are surrendering yourself to your full potential. Be bold as you're created to be. Be courageous as you've created to be. Be divine as you've created to be.
