Deep dives

Start Without Waiting

Beginning a new habit or fulfilling a vision should not be postponed until a specific date, like January 1st. Waiting for the perfect moment can lead to crowded environments and increased costs, both in terms of fitness classes and memberships. Starting early allows individuals to make mistakes and learn from them without the added pressure of competition from others. Emphasizing the importance of beginning immediately can foster momentum and readiness when others are only just starting.
