- I want to write more on this blog - better wait until I’ve written a few blog posts and have an exact schedule of what I plan to write and when.
- I want to write a romance novel - better wait until the story is perfectly composed in my head before committing it to paper.
- I want to get back in the dating game - better wait until I’ve either lost my steroid weight or until I have some self-esteem.
- I want to get fit and lose some weight - better wait until I’ve started losing weight so that I don’t look like a fool when I’m out running, swimming etc. (I’m not even joking about this one even though I know how ridiculous it sounds!)
I always seem to have some excuse or reason for procrastination.
Even knowing that it’s pure procrastination, and knowing that it’s only because these things mean a lot to me personally that I'm hesitating, doesn’t help me to actually get going.
So, I’ve decided to fire the gun.
I’m not ready.
I don’t know which route to take.
I haven’t stretched.
But that’s too bad - the starting gun has been fired and everyone else is running. Even if I look at it as a one person race, that gun has still gone off and can’t be unfired.
So, I can either take the heart lurch of missing the starting gun and knowing I’ll be a step behind, say ‘shit!’ and just get going, or…
D'you know - there’s never a ‘right time’ which means there’s never a ‘wrong time’ either!
Let’s get going.
