The Myth of Ready: Stop Waiting for Permission

How many lifetimes have you delayed waiting to “feel ready”?
Like readiness is some golden ticket the universe hands you
after enough self-help books and green juice cleanses.

But here’s the cosmic joke:
Ready doesn’t exist.
It’s not a feeling. It’s a choice.

Every version of you that leveled up -
the one who left the job, walked away from the relationship,
started the project, spoke the truth -
none of them felt ready.
They just stepped. Or even leaped.

And the ground built itself beneath their feet.

That’s how reality works.
It’s not Ikea furniture where all the pieces come in a box
and you follow the instructions to completion.
It’s more like a magic trick:
the instructions appear after you act -
and reality rushes to rearrange itself around you.

Waiting to feel ready is just fear in a yoga pose.
It looks spiritual. It feels responsible.
But it’s really procrastination wearing mala beads.

The universe doesn’t need your certainty.
It doesn’t need your plan color-coded.
It just deserves your yes.

Because the moment you choose,
resources rearrange.
Support shows up.
Synchronicities align like stepping stones across the river.

You don’t feel ready first.
You feel ready after.

So stop waiting for permission from a feeling
that was never supposed to arrive.
Move. Step... Or leap. Say yes.
And let “ready” catch up with you.
