Giving Yourself Permission to Start
What you'll learn
- →Understand the difference between being ready (a feeling that may never come) and being willing (a decision you can make right now).
- →Stop waiting for ready — most hard conversations are had by people who weren't ready.
- →Give yourself permission to start before you feel like you should.
Proof task
Don't just watch. Do.
Write down one conversation you've been waiting to feel ready for. Now write the sentence: "I'm not ready, but I'm willing." Read it back. That sentence is the permission slip. Use it today.
