There is No Later

The illusion of "later" is a funny thing. And it is a thief.

It's the belief that we can push life back until life fits OUR ideal circumstances.

That we can recreate opportunities at will when WE feel ready to experience them.

It is the act of saying not now, but one day, when the conditions are right.

We EASILY find reasons to delay living until "later".

We wait for more time.

We wait for more money.

We wait to feel more confident.

We wait for more clarity.

We wait for the right season of life.

We wait for permission.

But what if we found reasons to live NOW? 

Such as...

Time is FINITE so NOW is really the most time we'll ever have.

And what if we decided not to wait for more money and decided to do what we could right now with the money we have? 

-What if we chose to build confidence through reps rather than have it be a prerequisite?

While also acknowledging that more clarity comes from doing, rather than thinking.

There is no perfect season of life, the only "season" that exists is the moment we have NOW.

There is no need to wait for permission to live because the very essence of us being alive is THE permission.

The very reasons we find ourselves delaying LIFE are the very reasons we need to remind ourselves to LIVE and not wait.

I don't want to wait till "later". I've seen "later" never arrive.

With love,

Ethan
