What are you waiting for?

The Waiting Place is so popular even Dr. Seuss wrote about it in Oh the Places You Will Go:

"NO!
That's not for you!

Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying,
You'll find the bright places where Boom Bands are playing."

Waiting until things are just right before taking action is popular among those of us with perfectionism tendencies, indecisiveness or both.

Recognize that things will never be perfect.

Instead, act now with resolve and passion. Don't hedge your bets and leave yourself an escape path with a Plan B. Doing so is a vote against yourself and practically guarantees failure.

Courageously choose and boldly act. Then, make it the correct choice by adapting with follow-up action and the usual minor course corrections. Like walking, you can only move forward by temporarily experiencing imbalance.

That's where the Boom Bands play! Can you hear them?
