If you don’t go for what you want in your career now, then when will you?

Right now there are a lot of reasons why you’re not taking that active next step towards achieving your career goal:

you’re not sure you want it

you’re in the middle of a deal

things are too busy right now

you just need to get through this period

you’re waiting for your next pay check

you’ve got a financial commitment coming up

These are the reasons you tell me you want to progress your career inside BE THE FIRST but now is not the right time.

But what sounds like a plausible reason for waiting, is actually a cover story for procrastination.

In this episode I challenge you to look beneath the cover story of why you put things off and get curious about the real reasons keeping you stuck.

The fear of failure

The fear that going for your goal will be hard

The fear you might fail

The fear that you might succeed

The fear of other peoples expectations

When these are the real reasons behind your procrastination the way forward becomes crystal clear: no more waiting for a future time, for the conditions to be perfect and for the fears to subside. The right time to join BE THE FIRST and go for what you want is now.

Tune in to discover more.
