## Resource

How many times have you said "I'll start that in January" or "I'll get to it when things calm down"? If you've ever pushed your goals to a future date that never quite arrives, this episode is your wake-up call. Our host, Diane Rolston, gets real about the problem with waiting for someday and why the timing you're waiting for is probably just procrastination dressed up as good planning. Listen to learn these key takeaways: Why being busy and moving forward are two completely different things and how to tell which one you're actually doing The real reason we wait for the "perfect time" that has nothing to do with timing at all The question to ask yourself before you decide whether your reason for waiting is valid or just a good excuse Where your most important goals actually land on your priority list and why they'll keep getting pushed back until you do something about it The jar story applied to your goals: why filling your day with everything else first guarantees there's no room left for what matters most Why Diane’s book sat for a year, and her podcast kept getting delayed and what finally forced both to happen The problem with asking yourself "why am I procrastinating?" and the better questions to ask instead Why you might not actually have a discipline problem at all and what might really be going on The three things that are often missing when goals stay stuck, and none of them are motivation Why adding five new goals is exactly the wrong move and what to do instead Coming up next: why you probably don't need more motivation to reach your goals and what you might actually be missing instead.
