Unleashing Potential: The Power of Starting Now
10 December 2023
In the latest episode of Inspiration Nation Co-hosts Ryan Boniface and Jose Noya delve into a thought-provoking discussion, missing their usual third musketeer, Lee. They touch upon a powerful quote tweeted by James Clear, the author of "Atomic Habits": "It's not too late to do what you want to do. If you stop waiting for the time to be right."
The Essence: Just Start
Ryan and Jose explore the paralysis that waiting for the "right time" can cause. They emphasize that there's never a perfect moment to begin our dreams or projects. Progress, even if incremental, is key. "1% a day is better than no percent a day," Ryan notes, encapsulating the spirit of taking action, however small.
Personal Journeys and Insights
Both hosts share their experiences, highlighting the fears and hesitations that often accompany starting something new, particularly in the public eye. Ryan talks about his initial reluctance to start a YouTube channel, worried about negative judgments. Jose reflects on his coaching journey, acknowledging the humble and imperfect beginnings but stressing the importance of those initial steps.
The Underlying Message: Embrace the Journey
The conversation evolves into a broader reflection on what success truly means. It's not always about hitting big numbers or public acclaim; sometimes, it's about the journey, the growth, and the simple act of doing something you believe in. Jose's anecdote about connecting with successful coach and author, Jo Wright, underlines this, showing how starting something, no matter how small, can lead to unexpected and fulfilling paths.
Our Takeaway
The podcast episode is a rallying cry for anyone hesitating to take the first step towards their aspirations. It's a reminder that the act of beginning is often the most significant step. Waiting for perfection can be an endless and unfruitful wait. The hosts encourage embracing imperfections and learning through the process.
