Hey.
I think it's time you finally accept that the version of you you're waiting to become isn't coming.
There's no cinematic moment where the sky cracks open and hands you the perfect mindset, the perfect habits, the perfect life.
You've been stalling in the doorway, rearranging imaginary furniture in a room you've never even stepped into.
You keep telling yourself it's preparation, but it's not.
It's stasis.
And stasis rots just as surely as decay.
Look around you.
Everything you think is "waiting" is actually moving without you.
The conversations you haven't had are turning to silence.
The work you haven't started is becoming someone else's.
And the person you're avoiding becoming is quietly growing roots in your absence.
If you don't like where you are, don't sit there waiting for "ready."
The calendar doesn't care, the clock doesn't care, and your future self certainly doesn't.
You have two options: step forward into the mess, or let the mess turn into your life.
So which is it?
