Timing is tough to get right.

You’ve probably had ideas that were too early, and you’ve probably had ideas that were too late.

These ideas can look perfect in the moment, a rosy hue cast over them by the fact that you know you don’t really need to act on them, maybe can’t act on them.

Despite their impossibility, it’s easy to get hung up on these ideas, thinking about the “what if’s” and the “if only’s”.

You can imagine yourself in a past or future world in which the timing is right, and the pieces fall into place for you one after another as if synchronized, elegant in their simplicity and perfection.

“It would all be so easy,” you think.

But you’re here now.

And that’s a fantastic thing.

If you’re here now, you have a fantastic opportunity, an opportunity your future and past selves do not have.

An opportunity to create something today that will change things tomorrow.

While you may have had ideas for which the timing was off, you’ve probably had many more ideas for which the timing was perfectly right.

Maybe you didn’t recognize them for what they were.

Maybe they didn’t look quite so elegant when you could see all the potential problems, challenges, and competition.

Maybe they looked like work.

They probably were.

But if you’re here now, you have the opportunity to do work that matters. Work that has the ability to change things for one person, or for the world.

Never has there been a time with more resources to tap into and more interesting problems to solve.

Never has it been easier for you to play a part in shaping our collective future.

Never have there been more ideas floating around freely, waiting for the right person to tap into them and take the lead.

For one of them, perhaps many of them, you are that right person.

All it takes is to recognize that the time has never been more right for you to make a difference and to get to work.

You already have everything you need.
