The change you can still be

# Chapter 206

What are you waiting for? The future is getting closer and shorter, if you understand the future to be a soon coming event and that you have limited days upon which to act upon it. In your thinking, the future are the days ahead. Others see the future as a mental construct of a not yet arrived present. I am certainly not smart enough to determine what the future is, or what the future means, nor to define it to the satisfaction of everyone. And the future is not even the point here, just some cerebral candy to delight in.

The point is that you are waiting, when in fact you should be taking action. You are waiting for . . . something . . . and this waiting is leaving you fewer and fewer days weeks months years to act, to choose, to be. So stop waiting! Get this thing in action and get it moving forward! Whatever is luring you to inertia is, in fact, robbing you of the results you could be experiencing! You could be changing the world but instead you are sitting at your desk bored doomscrolling your Facebook feed!! What is wrong with you??!!

There are so many important events that will not occur without you, so don’t wait. Waiting is losing. Losing the window of opportunity, losing the remaining daylight, losing the victims ground up by trafficking and broken homes, losing the interest to act, and losing the change you could have been, and that you can still be. There are no perfect moments in which to start. Beginning is the most difficult action of all.
