Waiting for the perfect moment to do something we really want to do is probably what we all do at some point in our lives.
We tell ourselves that when certain circumstances or conditions are met, such as a certain type of preparation, we will be able to start doing those things we so desire to do. But this idea sometimes paralyzes us much more than it motivates us to do something, since the perfect moment is simply an illusion created by our mind that will never come.
The perfect moment to do something is simply an illusion, it is something we create with our mind only, usually this moment is an excuse to postpone what we really want to do. Perfection does not really exist since reality is changing because our perception of reality is constantly changing. It is normal that by waiting so long for the perfect moment, opportunities pass us by.
What is the perfect action? The perfect action is simply inaction, we take small steps even if it seems imperfect and this simply brings us closer and closer to our goals than waiting for the perfect moment. This does not mean that we live life without any plan, we must understand that experiences allow us to improve with each step. When we say to act, even if we are not sure what we want to do, we are gaining experiences and learning.
When is the perfect time? If you ask yourself this question the answer is: NOW since the "PERFECT" moment in which everything aligns never comes, we must act in the present moment, only this is the perfect moment in which we must act.
What can we do? To take the first step we must define what is the smallest action that we can do today to get closer to the goal, it can be a simple phone call or a message, you can start by making a list. Weekly you must evaluate all the points that you have done, how you feel, what is the feeling that invades you for having achieved it. This follow-up allows you to make progress and make the necessary corrections in the process without expecting everything to be perfect.
It is important that you learn to embrace after recognizing that imperfection exists and waiting for everything to be perfect can lead to waiting for a lifetime. Remember that even mistakes allow you to get closer to your goal.
After all, living is acting in the present moment. We must take advantage of the time, place and resources we have available TODAY. This is what can help us achieve our goals.
