When You Stop Negotiating Your Assignment

The assignment is clear; hesitation is negotiation.

You know what you're supposed to do.

It's been clear for a while.
Not loud. Just persistent.

But you keep negotiating.

You tell yourself you need more preparation.
You tell yourself the timing isn't right.
You tell yourself you'll do it after one more thing.


Clarity is not the problem.
Courage is.

The assignment doesn't change because you're afraid.
It waits.

This week, remove one escape route.
One reason you've been keeping in your back pocket
in case obedience becomes too uncomfortable.

Stop negotiating.
Start doing.

The gap between knowing and doing
is where most people spend their lives.
Close it.
