"Make the timing right."

Something I hear a lot from people who are looking to make improvements to their life is “the time isn’t right”. They want to lose that extra weight and get serious about their health, but they’re going to wait until after the Holidays. They want to go on that dream trip but they need to wait for things at work to settle down before they can. 

I know for me, I was waiting for the right moment to write my book. In my mind the stars needed to align where I had extra time to write it, I was in a season of getting a lot of exposure, and felt confident that I had a complete message that was ready to be shared. And for many years it was an idea that kept getting pushed off.

The reality is, the time is never right. If it’s not ‘this’ reason today it’ll be ‘that’ reason tomorrow. Waiting for the time to be right is waiting for a day that will never come. And if you’re serious about making the most out of life, that’s unacceptable.

Do you know what makes the timing right? Choosing for it to be so. Making a commitment that you’re going to do something big and new is like shaking a snow globe. Everything gets displaced but it all settles back down in some orderly way. The idea is that it settles in a way that incorporates the new thing you want to prioritize. 

That’s what happened for me - I gave myself a deadline to write my book in 6 months and locked in the commitment by telling a mentor to hold me accountable to it. It shook up my snow globe and everything else settled back into its own rhythm with my book writing commitment a centerpiece to it.

It takes courage, but in a single moment you can change your life forever. It’s not easy, but you can make a decision today that changes your daily routine for good. 

How long have you been talking about getting consistent with good and healthy habits? How many times have you told yourself that you’re going to live inspired only to repeat the same unmotivated patterns? How often do you fail to do the things you said you were going to do, or the things that you know you should do, and it’s keeping you from being the person you know you’re capable of?

What if today was the day, and this was the moment that you actually changed your life trajectory? 

To kick off the New Year I’m leading a 21 Day Challenge to help people permanently and positively change their life. It’s for people who know that they’re destined for more and who are ready for their breakthrough. You can learn more about the 21 Day New Year Challenge here.

Stop waiting for the time to be right to achieve your goals… And make the timing right. The time is now! This is it, and your fullest potential is calling.
